    Study Notes

    Harnessing Human Energy: Chapter 2 - Rescue Team's Energy Needs

    • Lesson 2.1: How Objects Get Energy
      • Living and nonliving things can have energy
      • Energy can move from one object to another.
      • The process of energy moving from a living object to another living object is called energy transformation.
      • Energy can be transferred from a living object to a nonliving object, like a human pedaling a bike.

    Lesson 2.2: Evaluating Energy Sources

    • Different energy sources have advantages and disadvantages.
      • Fossil fuels are abundant but cause pollution.
      • Solar panels rely on sunlight which is inconsistent but sustainable.
      • Wind turbines can be noisy but renewable.
    • There are several ways to store energy, including batteries and fuel cells.
      • Batteries store energy chemically.
      • Fuel cells use chemical reactions to create electricity.

    Lesson 2.3: Writing Scientific Arguments

    • Nothing can work without energy.
    • Human movement can be used to charge batteries through devices like a kinetic energy charger.
    • Scientific arguments use evidence and reasoning to support claims.
    • It is important to include data and evidence in arguments.
    • An argument's conclusion should be supported by reasons and evidence.
