How can efficiency be increased in energy transfers?
Efficiency can be increased by reducing the amount of dissipated energy in the system.
When a person is throwing a ball, at the ball's highest point, where has all the energy been transferred in the case of the ball?
All the energy has been transferred from the kinetic energy store to the gravitational potential energy store.
What is a system?
An object or a group of objects.
How can efficiency be increased in energy transfers?
Efficiency can be increased by reducing the amount of dissipated energy in the system.
How is energy related to systems?
Energy is stored in systems, which can be individual objects or groups of objects.
What unit is used to measure energy?
Energy is measured in joules (J).
What is the conservation of energy?
The conservation of energy is the idea that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only change forms.
How is energy stored in systems?
In different energy stores.
What are energy stores in a system?
Energy stores are various forms of energy, like kinetic, potential, thermal, and chemical, within a system.
Are there different types of energy?
No, there aren't different types of energy; there are different ways of storing it.
Name 7 different energy stores.
Chemical Elastic potential Electrostatic Gravitational potential Kinetic Magnetic Nuclear
What happens when a system changes?
Energy is transferred as the system undergoes a change.
Why is it important to be able to describe energy transfers in different situations?
To understand how energy moves and changes forms in various processes.
When a person is throwing a ball, what kind of work is done by the person's arm?
Work is done to transfer energy from the arm's chemical energy store to its kinetic energy store.
What is the measure of the amount of energy transferred in a system change?
The amount of energy transferred is often called "work done."
When a person is throwing a ball, how is energy transferred from the person's arm to the ball?
Energy is transferred from the arm's kinetic energy store to the ball's kinetic energy store.
When a person is throwing a ball, what happens to the ball's kinetic energy as it moves upwards?
The ball's kinetic energy decreases as it slows down due to the force of gravity.
What happens to energy storage during system changes?
There are changes in the way energy is stored when systems change.
When a person is throwing a ball, at the ball's highest point, where has all the energy been transferred in the case of the ball?
All the energy has been transferred from the kinetic energy store to the gravitational potential energy store.
When a person is throwing a ball, what happens to the energy as the ball falls again?
The energy from the gravitational potential energy store is transferred back to the kinetic energy store.
What are the different energy stores?
Energy can be found in different stores, such as chemical, elastic potential, electrostatic, gravitational potential, kinetic, magnetic, and nuclear.
Define a closed system.
A closed system is a system where energy cannot enter or leave.
What can happen to energy in a closed system?
Energy can only be transferred usefully, stored, or dissipated by the objects within the system.
Describe the energy transfers when a person throws a ball upwards.
Energy is transferred from the arm's chemical energy store to its kinetic energy store, then to the ball's kinetic energy store. As the ball moves upwards, energy is transferred to its gravitational potential energy store.
Can energy be created or destroyed in a closed system?
No, energy cannot be created or destroyed in a closed system.
What happens to energy as a ball falls?
As the ball falls, energy is transferred from its gravitational potential energy store back to its kinetic energy store.
Can there be a net change in the amount of energy found in a closed system?
No, there can be no net change in the amount of energy in a closed system.
How does one describe the entire Universe in terms of energy?
The entire Universe is described as a closed system, with trillions of objects constantly transferring energy between them.
What defines a closed system?
A closed system is defined by the characteristic that energy cannot enter or leave; it can only be transferred, stored, or dissipated within the objects within the system.
Is there a constant total amount of energy in the entire Universe, according to the text?
Yes, the total amount of energy in the entire Universe always stays the same.
What is the conservation of energy in closed systems?
Energy cannot be created or destroyed in a closed system; the total amount of energy always remains constant.
What do arrows represent in the energy transfer diagram?
Arrows represent the direction of energy transfer.
What is the principle regarding net change in energy in closed systems?
In a closed system, there can be no net change in the total amount of energy.
How are Sankey diagrams composed, and what do different widths of arrows signify?
Sankey diagrams are made up of arrows of different widths. The thicker the width of the arrow, the more energy that's transferred.
How is energy dissipated in system changes?
In all system changes, some energy is dissipated so that it's stored in less useful ways (or wasted).
How can we conceptualize the Universe in terms of energy?
The entire Universe can be thought of as a closed system, with energy constantly being transferred between trillions of objects, but the total amount of energy in the Universe always stays the same.
Can you recall the equation for calculating the efficiency of an energy transfer?
Efficiency (%) = (Useful energy transferred / Total energy supplied) × 100
How are energy transfers often represented in diagrams?
Energy transfers are often represented using diagrams, where boxes represent energy stores, and arrows indicate the direction of energy transfer.
Why are systems never 100% efficient?
Because only some energy is usefully transferred, while the rest is dissipated.
What is unique about Sankey diagrams in representing energy transfers?
Sankey diagrams use arrows of different widths to represent the amount of energy transferred; thicker arrows indicate more significant energy transfers.
What effect does reducing the amount of dissipated energy have on the efficiency of an energy transfer?
Reducing the amount of dissipated energy will increase the efficiency of the energy transfer.
How is energy efficiency represented in Sankey diagrams?
Thicker arrows in Sankey diagrams indicate more energy transferred usefully, reflecting higher energy efficiency.
What happens to some energy in all system changes?
In all system changes, some energy is dissipated, stored in less useful ways, or wasted.
An equation used to calculate energy efficiency:
Efficiency of Energy Transfer Equation
What is the equation to calculate the efficiency of an energy transfer?
The efficiency of an energy transfer is calculated using the equation: Efficiency = (Useful Energy Transferred / Total Energy Supplied) (× 100).
Why are systems never 100% efficient?
Systems are never 100% efficient because only some energy is usefully transferred, while the rest is dissipated.
How can efficiency be increased in energy transfers?
Efficiency can be increased by reducing the amount of dissipated energy in the system.
