Changes in Matter
Enduring Ideas
Enduring Ideas
Mechanical energy has two types: kinetic and potential
energy.
Kinetic energy is energy found in moving objects, in other
words, energy in motion.
A running car uses kinetic energy.
Potential energy is energy found in objects that are
stationary, or energy at rest.
A car parked uses potential energy.
We need energy to do all activities.
Lesson 21: Other Forms of
Energy
Enduring Ideas
The sun is the major source of energy
Machines and all moving objects produce mechanical
energy
Chemical energy stored in food helps keep our body
warm and does work
Chemical energy produces heat
Electrical energy is associated with the movement of
electric charges.
Electro-magnetic energy is electric charges moving along
magnetic fields
Sound energy is capable of generating lift and propulsion
directly upon objects
Radiant energy comes from a glowing heat and radiates
to different directions
Nuclear energy is energy within the center of the atom
Lesson 22: Transformation
of Energy
Enduring Ideas
There are several transformation of energy going around
us
The change of energy from one another form is known as
energy transformation
Electric energy is converted into mechanical energy when
the blades of electric fan starts to rotate
Energy transformation is important because some forms of
energy cannot be used as is. The forms of energy need to
be transformed.
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy
cannot be destroyed nor created, but it can be
transformed to another energy
Lesson 23: Force
Enduring Ideas
All stationary objects have two forces acting on them. These
forces are upward force and downward pull of gravity.
All forces have both magnitude and direction. The forces are
equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
The forces that cancel each other are called balanced
forces
The combined forces acting on an object are called the net
force
Unbalanced forces are unequal forces
Lesson 24: Speed
Enduring Ideas
Forces cause motion. Objects move because of the force
given.
Motion is a change in position of an object with respect to its
stationary objects.
The simplest type of motion is called linear motion in a
straight line.
Speed describes the rate of motion. It is the distance
travelled per unit time.
To calculate speed, divide the total distance traveled by the
total time elapsed.
