How Is Energy Related to Work?
Energy is defined as the ability to do work.
Recall that work is the product of force and
distance. If a force acts through a greater
distance, it has done more work. You can
use work to measure changes in energy.
Place two identical books on a table so
there is a gap of about 8 cm between the books. Place a sheet of
notebook paper on the books so it covers the gap as shown. Now drop
a penny from a height of 10 cm onto the paper above the gap. Note
what happens. Next, drop the penny from a height of 30 cm and
observe the results.
1. How did the height of the penny affect the distance the paper
moved?
2. How did lifting the penny affect the work it did on the paper?
3. How did lifting the penny affect its energy?

How Can Energy Change Forms?
Have you even seen a Rube Goldberg device? Goldberg was an award-winning
cartoonist who drew complex series of devices that performed relatively simple
acts. The devices were arranged so that the output of one device would act as the
input of the next. Goldberg became so well known for his drawings that people all
over the world hold contests to see who can build the most complicated device.
Study the Rube Goldberg cartoon below and answer the questions.
1. List at least three kinds of energy in the device.
2. Describe one change, in which energy from one form is
converted into energy of another form.

Relating Cause and Effect
a. The gull drops the oyster, and the oyster’s gravitational potential
energy is converted into kinetic energy as the oyster falls. (Air
resistance can be ignored.)
b. The oyster strikes a rock and breaks, kinetic energy is converted
into work (breaking the shell) and thermal energy. The kinetic energy
and gravitational potential energy of the oyster are now zero.

Using Wind and Water
Wind and water are two useful sources
of energy found in nature.
You can demonstrate how these energy
sources are converted into kinetic energy
by making a model of a windmill or a water
wheel. Tape a pencil to an index card. Hold
the pencil loosely at both ends. Blow onto
one side of the index card and observe what
happens. Next, hold the index card above a bucket.
Have a classmate pour water from a pitcher onto one
side of the index card.
1. What happened when you blew into the card? What
happened when you held the card under running water?
2. How do you think people used the kinetic energy of a water
wheel or a windmill to grind corn or other kinds of grain?

Identifying Main Ideas
a. Nonrenewable energy resources include oil, natural gas and coal.
They exist in limited quantities.
b. Renewable energy resources include hydroelectric, solar, geothermal,
wind, biomass, and nuclear fusion.
c. Energy resources can be conserved by reducing energy needs and by
increasing the efficiency of energy use.

Answers
1. How did the height of the penny affect the distance the
paper moved?
The paper moved farther when the penny was dropped
from a greater height.
2. How did lifting the penny affect the work it did on
the paper?
Lifting the penny allowed it to do more work on the paper.
3. How did lifting the penny affect its energy?
Lifting the penny increased the penny’s energy.

Answers
1. What happened when you blew into the card? What
happened when you held the card under running water?
The moving air and water caused the card and pencil
to rotate.
2. How do you think people used the kinetic energy of a
water wheel or a windmill to grind corn or other kinds
of grain?
Answers will vary. Sample possible answer:
The kinetic energy of the windmill or water wheel
probably turned gears, which cause a millstone to turn.
