ENERGY SYLLABUS
1. - I know the 9 types of energy
- I know and understand the Law of Conservation of Energy
2. - I can describe the energy transfers in a range of situations and can state the fate of the input energy in both useful and wasted forms in words or in Sankey (flow) diagrams
- I understand the term efficiency and can use the equation:
Efficiency = Useful Energy Output/ Total Energy Input (x 100%)
3. - I know and cau use the relationships:
Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) = Mass x Gravity x Height
and
Kinetic Energy (KE) = (1/2) x Mass x Velocity squared
4. - I know that work is done whenever energy is transferred and that both are measured in joules (J)
- I know and can use the formula:
Work Done = Force x Distance moved in direction of force
5. - I know that the power is the rate of energy transfer or rate of doing work
- I know and can use the equation:
Power = Work/ Time
or
Power = Energy/ Time
6. - I can explain heat transfer by conduction in solids including metals
- I can describe how insulation is used to reduce heat transfers in buildings
7. - I can explain heat transfer by convection in liquids and gases
- I can explain the everyday phenomena involving convection
8. - I can explain heat transfer by radiation and know that dull black surfaces are the most efficient absorbers and emitters of heat radiation.
9. - I understand what is meant by renewable and non-renewable energy resources
- I can describe the energy transfers involved in generating electricity using wind, waves, hydroelectric schemes, geothermal resources, solar cells, fossil fuels and nuclear power
10. - I can describe the advantages and disadvantages of methods of large-scale electricity production from various renewable and non-renewable resources
- I know and understand the Law of Conservation of Energy
