Energy Transformation Experiment

 1.Chemical + Electrical = A Phone

2. Light + Chemical  = Flashlight

3.Kinetic + Light = Car

Aim: To make a marsgmallow shooter that transfroms energy

Equipment :

1.Platic Cup

2.Marshmallow

3.Tape

4.Balloon

5.Scissor

Method:

1.Cut a hole in the  bottom of the cup

2.Insert the balloon at the bottom 

3.Then tape it around the balloon

4.Tie the ballon after that

5.Put the marshmallow in

6. Shoot your shot

Conclusion:I didnt get to do anything because I went student reception and when I got back its time to pack up.

Energy

 Definition: Stored in an object, the ability to move something.


Diffrent kinds of energy.

- Light energy = The energy of the electromagnetic waves. Found in all Micowaves , Xrays and visble light. (flash light , candle)

- Heat enery = caused by the movement of particles. Found in all hot objects (  solar system , Heat energy)

-Sound energy =  Energy produced by vibrating objects. Examples are speech,ultrasound and music. ( solar , wind)

-Chemical potential energy = Energy stored in the bonds between particales. found in substances petrol and food. ( food , batteries)

-Electrical energy = the movement of electrically charge particles. found in wires generators and lighting.(Direct current , lighting)

-Gravitational potential energy   = Energy stored in objects due to their height above the  ground. (Airplan , Rocket)

-Kinetic energy = Energy due to the motion of an object. eg. moving cars, running, swimming

-Elastic pontentail energy = Energy stored in stretched or sqauashed objects. Examples are springs and rubber bands.
