Energy: Conservation and Transfer
Learning Objectives:
Recognize that energy takes various forms that may be grouped based on their interaction with matter.
4.P.3.1 Recognize the basic forms of energy (light, sound, heat, electrical, and magnetic) as the ability to cause motion or create change.
4.P.3.2 Recognize that light travels in a straight line until it strikes an object or travels from one medium to another, and that light can be reflected, refracted, and absorbed.
Essential Understandings:
4.P.3.1 Students know basic forms of energy: light, heat, sound, electrical, and energy of motion. Students know that electricity flowing through an electrical circuit produces magnetic effects in the wires. In an electrical circuit containing a battery, a bulb, and a bell, energy from the battery is transferred to the bulb and the bell, which in turn transfer the energy to their surroundings as light, sound, and heat (thermal energy).
4.P.3.2 Students know that light travels in a straight line. Students know that light can be refracted, reflected, and/or absorbed.
