energy transfer

Explains how energy is transferred through conduction, convection, and radiation, illustrating these actions with an experiment and a look at a steam engine.

Defines energy in its various forms and describes how energy is transferred.

Presents information on the transfer of energy, which enables people or things to do work, covering its storage, chemical and nuclear energy, electricity, and more, with reports, examples, fascinating facts, diagrams, photographs, quotations, and a glossary.

Explains how energy moves from place to place and from object to object, discussing potential and kinetic energy and how energy transforms between these states. Uses bowling balls, rubber bands, divers, and snowboarders to demonstrate.

Photographs, illustrations, and diagrams describe the properties of energy; and explain concepts such as kinetic and potential energy, chain reactions, energy pyramid, and power grid, along with various ways that plants and animals use energy.

Presents an explanation of energy transfers which occur when energy changes from one type to another; looks at the concept of energy storage, discussing elastic, gravitational, chemical, electric, sound, and nuclear energy; and examines attempts to avoid energy loss.

Looks at different forms of energy, examines various ways in which energy is transferred, and discusses energy distribution and conservation.

Presents a study of matter, energy, and motion and discusses potential and kinetic energy, the laws of energy, and momentum.

Looks at different forms of energy, examines various ways in which energy is transferred, and discusses energy distribution and conservation.

Contains information on energy, in simple text with illustrations, and shows how energy comes from the sun and can be transferred from one thing to another, including food, animals, and water.
