The conversion of energy from one form to another is a central term in physics. Make it clear to your students that energy does not come from nothing, or disappear, but only changes or transfers its form. In order to clarify the energy conversion, exciting experiments are suitable, which permanently impress your learners. To do this you need an experimental set, which consists of a highly sensitive mini motor as indicator and a thermal generator with Peltier element. With this experimental material, you can show different energy conversions, such as:
How is potential energy converted into kinetic energy? How is kinetic energy converted into electrical energy? How is electrical energy converted into thermal energy? How is thermal energy converted into electrical energy? How is chemical energy converted into electrical energy?
With these experiments you can introduce your students to the variety and fascination of the energy conversion. The experimenting set also includes an illustrated guide, which contains information for the implementation and possible questions for the evaluation for each of the many attempts.
You can also ask other questions, such as:
WAS are the advantages and disadvantages of the various forms of energy: Potential energy, kinetic energy, electrical energy, thermal energy, light energy, chemical energy? How to measure or improve the efficiency of energy conversion? What role does energy conversion play in everyday life and in the environment?
