THERMAL AND RADIANT ENERGY

THERMAL ENERGY

• What is thermal energy?
• The sum of the kinetic energies
• the process of losing thermal energy is cooling
• The process of gaining thermal energy is heating

THERMAL ENERGY

• Man-made types of thermal energy.
• The oven uses heat for our food
• Solar panels gain the heat from the sun
• Light bulbs give small amounts of thermal enrgy

THERMAL ENERGY

• Natural types of thermal energy.
• The sun is our main source of thermal energy
• Lava gives out lots of thermal energy
• The wheather like snow takes away thermal energy

RADIANT ENERGY

• What is radiant energy?
• It is also called electromagnetic energy
• The energy is transmitted through a vacume
• The vacume part is why we call it radiant energy

RADIANT ENERGY

• Man-made types of radiant energy.
• The microwave uses electromagetic waves
• The radar uses radiant energy
• Xray machines uses radiant energy

RADIANT ENERGY

• Natural types of radiant energy.
• Ultraviolet Light
• Gamma rays
• Infared light

RADIANT/ THERMAL ENERGY

• Why we need thermal and radiant energy.
• We wouldnt have microwaves without radiant energy
• We wouldnt have the sun without thermal energy
• We wouldnt be able to see our bones with X-rays
• Lots of people use the oven and is a big part of making dinner
