3D Models of Renewable Resources
Energy Website: http://www.eia.gov/kids/energy.cfm?page=2
Central Idea: Humans find ways to use and transform energy.
LOI:
Energy conversions (Energy changing from one form to another)
Rights for obtaining(getting) energy sources
Responsibilities toward our environment and global community
Vocab:
--Fossil fuels: fuels made from fossilized creatures such as coal, oil, and natural gas
--nonrenewable resources: resources that are in limited supply and are all fossil fuels. Once the world runs out, there is no way to get more.
--Global Warming: Burning fossil fuels adds carbon dioxide to the air. Most scientists agree that this causes the gradual warming of Earth’s climate, or global warming.
--Renewable Resources: resources that we use to generate energy that will never run out such as hydro power, thermal energy, solar energy, and wind turbines.
--Filament:part of the light bulb that produces light
electric circuit: A path that allows electrons to transfer (flow) from negative to positive
--Energy is the ability to exert force and cause change. Energy has many form

- Kinetic energy is energy of motion. All moving things have kinetic energy.
- Sound is energy of vibrating materials or air molecules.
- Thermal energy is the energy of tiny moving particles. As an object heats up, particles move faster and thermal energy increases.
- Gravitational potential energy is stored energy that exists based on the position of an object. The higher an object is, the greater its gravitational potential energy.
- Electrical current is energy that comes from moving charged particles.
- Light is electromagnetic waves that are visible to the eye.
- Chemical energy is energy that is stored in the bonds holding atoms together.
- Nuclear energy is energy released when atoms split apart or join together.
