| PRIORITY STANDARDS: |
Understand the transformation and transmission of energy
and how energy and matter interact.
Identify different forms of energy, including kinetic,
gravitational (potential), chemical, thermal, nuclear, and electromagnetic.
Explain how thermal energy (heat) consists of the random
motion and vibrations of atoms and molecules and is measured by temperature.
Understand that energy can change from one form to another
(e.g., changes in kinetic and potential energy in a gravitational field,
heats of reaction, hydroelectric dams) and know that energy is conserved
in these changes. |
| OBJECTIVES |
|
OBJECTIVE (SWBAT):
Identify energy as potential or kinetic.
Given a temperature, calculate a corresponding temperature
on another scale.
BIG IDEAS:
What are various forms in which energy can exist?
How is energy measured?
ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS (SWBATA):
Energy exists in different forms, including kinetic and
potential forms, and can change from one form to another. |
