Falling objects
When an object falls in a gravitational field:
Gravitational potential energy (GPE) at the top equals the kinetic energy (KE) of the object just before it hits the ground.
If a diver has 4 000 J of GPE at the top of a cliff, how much KE will she have just before she hits the sea?
4 000 J _________
Assuming no energy is lost by air resistance!!!

Wasted energy
Whenever energy is changed from one form to another, some energy is always wasted. Energy is usually wasted as: heat energy;
sound energy.
All electrical devices produce a small amount of heat energy, which is normally wasted.

Energy efficiency
Efficiency is a measure of how good a device is at changing energy from one form to another. All devices waste energy, so the efficiency of a device is never 100%. The more efficient a device is the less energy is wasted.
Energy efficient light bulbs are more efficient than normal light bulbs aste less energy. because they w____ More of the e_______ lectrical energy that they are supplied with is converted into l____ ight energy and not h___. eat

Efficiency of a bulb
This filament bulb is supplied with 100 J of electrical energy which it converts to 45 J of light energy. a) How much energy is wasted? 55 J Wasted energy = Total Useful = 100 J 45 J = 55 J Efficiency = Useful Total = 45 J 100 J = 0.45 or 45%

Efficiency of a radio
This radio is supplied with 300J of electrical energy which it converts to 96J of sound energy. Wasted energy = Total Useful = 300 J 96 J = 204 J Efficiency = Useful Total = 96 J 300J = 0.32 or 32%

Efficiency of a television
This television converts 2 000J of electrical energy into useful energy at an efficiency of 65%.
a) What useful energy does a television produce? light and sound b) How much useful energy is produced? 1 300 J Efficiency = Useful Total Useful = Efficiency x Total = 0.65 x 2 000 J = 1 300 J
