Study Notes
- Energy is the ability to do work
- It powers all daily devices and machines
- Sources include the sun, food, and fuels like gasoline
- Potential energy is stored energy of position or gravitational
- Forms of potential energy include: Chemical, Elastic, Nuclear, Gravitational, Kinetic, Electrical, Radiant, Thermal, and Motion
- Atoms are made of tiny particles called electrons, protons, and neutrons
- Electricity is the movement of electrons
- Radiant energy travels in transverse waves (visible light, x-rays, gamma rays, and radio waves)
- Thermal energy is often described as heat
- Mechanical energy is the movement of objects and substances
- Sound energy is the movement of energy through substances
- Non-renewable energy sources like coal, petroleum, natural gas, propane, and uranium, are used to generate electricity, heat homes, operate cars, and manufacture products
- Fossil fuels generate heat, light, and electricity; they are primary sources for generating electricity globally
- Coal is made from decomposed plant matter subjected to high temperature and pressure
- The Philippines has major coal-fired power plants such as Suai (largest), Pagbilao, Masinloc, and Calaca Power Stations
- Natural gas is formed through thermogenic or organic thermal maturation
- It's primarily composed of methane (CH4)
- Natural gas is a cleaner-burning fuel than coal and oil, but it is a finite resource
- Natural gas power plants in the Philippines include Ilijan and Santa Rita, and San Lorenzo and Avion
- Nuclear energy is released in nuclear reactions involving the atoms' nucleus
- Types of nuclear reactions are fission and fusion
- Fission is used in nuclear power plants; fusion powers the sun and stars
- Renewable energy sources replenish themselves naturally
- Solar energy converts sunlight into electricity (photovoltaic cells)
- Biomass energy comes from organic materials (wood, agricultural residues, and waste)
- Hydropower, using dams and turbines, converts water's kinetic energy into electrical energy
- The Philippines uses significant hydropower (e.g., Caliraya-Botocan-Kalayaan (CBK) Hydroelectric Complex, Magat Dam, Pantabangan Dam, Ambuklao-Binga, and Kanan Dam) for energy generation
- Wind energy transforms wind's kinetic energy into electrical energy
- Wave energy uses ocean wave movement for electricity generation
- Geothermal energy harnesses heat from the Earth's interior
