 In The Transfer of Energy, aspiring scientist Sylvie uncovers some compelling examples of how energy is never lost -- it just changes form as it moves through the universe. Discover that without energy transfers, there could be no life on Earth! Colorful, fast-paced visuals help students learn that heat energy from the sun is transferred to the Earth's surface and among objects in three different ways: conduction, convection and radiation. Find out that the sun's energy is also continually being transferred into different forms that we depend on to live and grow. A fun experiment with golf balls and ping-pong balls allows kids to see an energy transfer in action. James Watt's steam engine is an excellent historical example of how heat energy can be harnessed to do work as it changes form. Part of the multivolume Energy in Action Video Series. Includes a Teacher's Guide. |
