o False
● The energy due to the motion of atoms in a material is…
o Thermal energy
● A calorie is…
o The amount of energy requires to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1oC.
● T or F: All electromagnetic radiation is visible light
○ False
LESSON 2: Energy Transfer and the Conservation of energy

● T or F: For the Law of Conservation of Energy work, we must turn off lights, heaters, etc.
when we leave the house.
o False

, ● T or F: In an isolated system energy can be transformed from one form to another, but
the total energy in the system must stay constant.
o True
● Clothes dryer consumes 2500W of energy. In 2s how much energy does the dryer use?
o 5000 joules
● You lift a cat from the ground up to a shelf 2 meters above the ground. Which is a
description of the energy flow?
o Chemical energy to GPE
● A laser is powered by a battery and is used to heat up a spot on a piece of paper. What
is the energy flow?
o Chemical to electric to electromagnetic to thermal
● Which of the following is closest to being an isolated system?
o A very well insulated, opaque cooler
● You are camping & you start a wood fire & use it to boil some H2O in a pot. Flow of En?
o Chemical to Thermal
● Plants need light in order to grow. They use the process of photosynthesis for this. What
is the energy transfer involved?
o Electromagnetic to Chemical
● The Law of Conservation of Energy
o Is a fundamental law of physics with no known exceptions.
● T or F: In a system which is NOT isolated the total amount of energy must stay constant.
o False
● A ball is rolling down a hill and gaining speed. What is happening?
o The ball is losing potential energy and gaining kinetic energy
● A chair is sliding across a rough horizontal floor. The chair starts with 100J of KE and
slows down and comes to a stop. What happened to the KE of the chair?
o The KE was transformed into heat due to friction with the floor
● T or F: If the total energy of a system increases this does not necessarily mean that
energy was added to the system.
o False
● T or F: According to the Law of Conservation of Energy if solar panels use the sun’s
energy in Arizona, then there will be less solar energy for us to use in Canada.
o False
● Which is not a unit of Power?
o Joules
 Your little sister drops a bag of candy on your head from the roof of your house. Right
before it hits your head it is moving quickly. Describe the candy’s En, from roof to head.
o The candy has lost potential energy and gained kinetic energy.
