November 8th, 2010 -Energy Reminders For Test

Today we made a list in our groups to remind us what we know about energy; here's the list. We all tried to remember stuff and we didn't know if its right or wrong. Yet.

Energy

• No mass


• Many forms of energy


• Can never be destroyed


• It never stops going

Then we came together as a class to see what we all came up with;

Brady's Group:

• Light is energy


• Energy cannot die


• You can apply energy


• You can't apply energy to yourself

And a few more.

Yamato's Group:

• Energy has no mass


• Not a state of matter


• Many types of energy


• Can be transferred object to object


• Can be transferred by applying force.

Steven's Group:

• Work is transferring energy to or from our object or system by applying force and having our object displace


• Force; push/pull


• Displacement; change in position

My group:

See the first list.

Alexia's group:

• Isn't matter


• Transferring energy to an item is work


• Doesn't always displace


• Need energy to have chalk smashing ability


• Types of energy; microwaves, UV rays, gamma rays, x-rays.
