PENNSYLVANIA FACTS
• Pennsylvania ranks second in the nation in nuclear power generating capacity– 5 operating power plants that provide 1/3 of the electricity needs of the
state• PA is a major coal producing state, selling ½ of its coal output to other
states• PA is the leading petroleum refining state in the Northeast• PA’s electricity production exceeds state demands• PA is among the largest users of municipal solid waste and landfill gas
for electricity generation• PA produces substantial hydroelectric power • In December 2004, PA adopted an alternative energy portfolio
standard that requires electricity companies and generators to supply 18.5% of PA’s electricity from alternative energy sources by 2020.
With your assigned group members discuss solutions to the following problem. Come to agreement as a group on a solution, and choose one member that will present your solution at the end of class.
Problem: What can be done to meet the United States’ ever-growing energy demands while
improving the quality of life of today’s society without sacrificing the quality of life of future
generations?
Law of Conservation
of EnergyEnergy cannot be created nor
destroyed!
Type of Energy Examples
Kinetic Sound, Wind, Spinning Wheel

Radiant Light, Microwaves, X-rays, Gamma waves
Electrical Electricity, static cling, lightning
Magnetic Magnets, compasses
Mechanical Pistons in a car engine
Thermal Heat
Nuclear Nuclear fission, nuclear fusion, heavy water
Chemical Gasoline, oil, batteries, food

Law of Conservation of EnergyEnergy cannot be created nor destroyed!
Any situation
where energy
is transferred
from one object
to another…
…or from one kind
of energy into another kind.
Webster's Dictionary definition of "rube goldberg”: Accomplishing by extremely complex, roundabout
means what seemingly could be done simply.
Draw your final sketch today. Label all 10 forms of energy associated with your machine.
Objective: Make a drawing of a Rube Goldberg device of your own creation which includes examples of each of the 10 basic types of energy and 10 different energy changes.
10 energies - these should be clearly labeled and numbered in blue next to where the energy occurs in the drawing.
10 different energy changes - arrows should be drawn connecting each energy in the drawing to the next in red to show how one type of energy is changing into another.
Calorie
• Always refers to the energy in food
• A measure of how much potential energy that food possesses
• 1 Calorie = 1 kilocalorie = 1000 calories
• Body burns calories through metabolic processes• Enzymes break carbohydrates into glucose and
other sugars, fats into glycerol and fatty acids and proteins into amino acids
Caloric Breakdown
• 1 gram carbohydrates = 4 Calories
• 1 gram protein = 4 Calories
• 1 gram fat = 9 Calories
Underweight <5%, Healthy 5-85%, Risk of Overweight 85-95%, Overweight >95%
The Body’s Caloric Needs
• 2,000 Calories is an average body’s need
• Height, weight, gender, age and activity level all affect a person’s caloric needs
• To calculate your body’s needs add together– basal metabolic rate– physical activity– thermic effect of food
BMR--Basal Metabolic Rate• Accounts for about 60 to 70 percent of calories burned in a
day
• Includes the energy required to keep the heart beating, the lungs breathing, the kidneys functioning and the body temperature stabilized
Adult male: 66 + (6.3 x body weight in lbs.) + (12.9 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years)
Adult female: 655 + (4.3 x weight in lbs.) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years)
Ms. Wack’s BMR = 1366.4
Physical Activity
Sedentary Activities Energy Costs in Cals/Hour
Lying down or sleeping - 90Sitting quietly - 84Sitting and writing, card playing, etc. - 114
Moderate Activities (150-350 cal/hr)
Bicycling (5 mph) - 174 Light housework, cleaning, etc - 246
Bicycling (6 mph) - 240 Swimming (crawl, 20 yards/min) - 288Dancing (Ballroom) - 210 Gardening - 323
Golf (twosome, carrying clubs) - 324
Walking (2 mph) - 198 to 240 Walking (3 mph) - 320 Walking (4 1/2 mph) - 440
Thermic Effect of Food
• The amount of energy your body uses to digest the food you eat
• Multiply the number of calories you eat in a day by 10% (0.10)
Food Serving Size CaloriesAmerican Cheese 1 slice 70Apple 1 medium 80Apple Juice 8 fluid ounces 120Bacon 2 slices 80Bologna 1 ounce 90Caesar Salad 10 oz. w/ dressing 520Carrot, fresh 1 medium 35Cheesecake, Plain 1/4 of 19 oz cake 330Cola 8 oz 100French Fries 10 strips 160Frozen Waffles 2 waffles 220Hamburger 4 oz. Patty 445Hamburger roll 1 roll 130Macaroni and Cheese 7.5 ounces 260Milk 8 ounces 160 Pizza, Cheese 1 slice 290Potato Chips 1 ounce 150 Pretzels 1 ounce 110
Effects of Calorie Intake• An accumulation of 3500 extra Calories is stored by your
body as 1 pound of fat
• Lose 1 pound of fat when you burn 3500 more calories than you eat
• Burn what you eat to maintain your weight
• Body burns an increased # of calories for 2 hours after exercise
Use the handouts on your table to determine the # of calories you eat in an average day (estimate it). Then use the calculations from yesterday and the information below to determine whether you should be losing, gaining or maintaining weight. Write your answers on your handout from yesterday.
What happens when you don’t get the Calories you need?
• Body initially responds with weight loss by breaking down fat
• After a few weeks body senses starvation and your metabolism will decrease so less overall energy is needed– Body will look for other sources of fuel & will begin
breaking down muscle resulting in loss of lean muscle mass (if already underweight can result in loss of tissue surrounding internal organs, including the heart).
• Symptoms: Fatigue, diarrhea, inability to stay warm, irritability, weakened immune system,
calories
• A unit of energy
• The quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of pure water 1°C
Calorie
• Always refers to the energy in food
• A measure of how much potential energy that food possesses
• 1 Calorie = 1 kilocalorie = 1000 calories
• Body burns calories through metabolic processes• Enzymes break carbohydrates into glucose and
other sugars, fats into glycerol and fatty acids and proteins into amino acids
Joule
• The SI unit of energy
• the symbol for Joule is J
• 1 J = 0.2390 cal
• 4.184 J = 1 cal
Energy Conversions
1 Calorie = 1000 calories
4.184 J = 1 calorie
Temperature
• Measured with: Fahrenheit Scale: An arbitrary scale created by Gabriel Fahrenheit.
F = (C 9/5) + 32
Celsius Scale: Based on the freezing and boiling points of water.
C = (F – 32) 5/9
C = K – 273
Kelvin Scale: The S.I. Scale
•Based on absolute zero.
Absolute Zero: The point at which the motion of particles of matter (their kinetic energy) ceases.
K = C + 273

States of Matter
• Depends on:

• Liquid:
• Gas:
PLASMA
Free electrons and ions of an element.
The most common form of matter
Energy is needed to strip atoms of their electrons.
Plasmas can be steered and controlled by magnetic and electric fields.
PLASMA TV’S•Xenon and Neon in each cell
•Intersecting electrodes charged causing electric current through the gas in that cell
•Electric current = rapidly flowing charged particles causing the release of UV photons
•Photons interact with the phosphor coating giving off colored light
Because each cell is lit individually, the image is bright and looks good from almost any angle.
Chemical Properties
Chemical Reaction: A Chemical Change
• After a chemical reaction: The original substance no longer has the same identity
• Chemical reactions can be used to:
Law of Conservation of Matter
•Matter cannot be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
•Developed by: Antoine Lavoisier
•Mathematically:Mass of the reactants = Mass of the products
