i have to do an assesment about sound. i have to include the big idea of energy. i have no clue what it is! HHEELLPP MMEE!!


What do you mean when you say "the big idea of energy"?

I know that sound is created by vibrations, but I'm not sure that's exactly what you are looking for.

i have no clue of what the big idea of energy is please plese help me becouse i have to do an asessment on the iron and silpher reaction and it askes me to explain what the big idea of energy is.
Answered by Finn
LOL, your teacher must be using the same stupid text book as mine. It's always going on about the big idea of energy and I have no clue what it is either, and I'm just doing the Iron and Sulpher homework too. Did you get the even more stupid homework on the EAr defenders. AGGHHHHHHHHHH!
Answered by NHHS
The total off energy and matter in the universe is constant, but that energy and matter are equivalent and can be interchanged-
And how i translated that from geekspeak was that energy and matter are kinda like twins that change place, and that everything in the universe is constant and on going-if that didn't help much i totally understand-i didn't understand it for the first 3 years.

this makes no sense....i got a whole sheet on this and i don't get any of it someone plz help me out!!!
Answered by Braindude
Energy can't be made or destroyed, just changed from one type to another. When something burns, you aren't making energy, just changing it from chemical (stored in the wood) to heat and light (the flame).

Hope this answers your question, but you are right. Those sheets really suck.

Would it be that:

1)A lot of chemical inside it changes to a big bright flash of light

2)Something like that

3)Or something to do with joining with Oxygen to make magnesium oxide

The big idea of energy is when a plant uses photosynthesis to get energy from the sun. The animal that eats this plant gets some of that energy transferred. Then the animal that eats that animal gets some of that energy...
Understand?
Have you done food webs yet? The arrows on a food chain or a food web stand for the direction in which energy is being transferred.

Woah! I have impressed myself with how much i know! :P

Answered by Nelly
The big idea of energy transfer is the idea of a source of energy being changed into another form of energy such as light energy to heat energy. This effect happens in global warming were chemical energy is transfered into heat energy with a greenhouse effect. This effect also happens in a food chain as the producers of the plant get energy from the sun through photosynthesis. The energy is then transferred to the consumer (animal/human) which has eaten the plant. During this flow of energy, only a certain percentage of energy is transferred to the consumer.

Hope this helps with your assignemnt.

Answered by bling
OK - The big Idea of energy.

Energy can never be destroyed - it simply changes it's state.

So for instance energy can be stored in the form of magnesium and then burnt. The energy then changes it's state into heat, light and sound.

Similarly an animal could consume food and turn this into energy in the form of stored(potential) energy, movement(kinetic) or sound, heat light etc.

Answered by chris
the big idea of energy is when a form of energy (heat,light, chemical, ect.)
ive got the iron and sulphur sheet and this is what i put:
‘The big idea of energy’ is that energy can’t be created or destroyed and it just changes from one form to another. This happens in this reaction because when we heat the mixture we aren’t creating energy we are simply changing heat energy to chemical energy to hold the iron and sulphur particles together. Thus making the compound known as FeS (iron sulphide/ iron pyrites (fool’s gold)).

ok...it is where the particles collide to form a compound.
Energy is stored in the form of magnesium then burnt. The energy changes state to light,heat and sound.
Energy can't be created or changed,it changes form.
When something burns, you aren't making energy, just changeing it from a chemical (stored in wood) to heat and light (the flame.)
i hope it helps!!!
Answered by Anonymous

Answered by Abi
Sooooooo
Energy can't be destroyed it just changes state
So the heat energy used on the iron and sulphur is then changed into chemical bonds, heat energy, light energy etc.
The energy is still there but being used as chemical bonds to keeep the compound as a compound.
The Big Idea of Energy Transfer is that as a say energy is added to something the opposite must be done to it's surroungings.

Hope this helps.

Answered by read and smile
u must be in the 8th grade like me and i assume ur learning physics [physical science] well energy is abundant in the universe. particle always have energy and never stop moving. liquid the particles are tender and so the energy they have is very low but they have the ability to slide off each other. gas are very far from each other and move heinously to keep constant. solid, solids have the most energy. they use force and energy for movement. the solid particles use their energy in 2 ways, keeping together their an example of cohesion (two particles or substances that stick together.)

Now we're going on to laws since ur talking about energy i will only do charles' law. now charles' law explains the relationship between temperature and volume. when the air is hot the particles speed up, know why? well on a hot summer day how would you react to the hot ground towards your feet, you would move around fast and crazy right? well the same thing happens with molecules. the molecules' source of energy is heat, with heat the molecules move very fast and if inside an object they can inflate the object. okay moving onto cold air in the winter don't you hate to run? well yes and how do you get to run? by creating enough heat. the cold air slows the particles' speeds which decrease the gas' mass, need any more?

The big idea of energy is about the chemical reaction that takes place.
According to the law of conservation of mass, “During an ordinary chemical change, there is no detectable increase or decrease in the quantity of matter.” Also, The Law of Conservation of Energy states that “energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can change its form.” Therefore, there are the same number of particles in the beginning and at the end of the reaction because no particles can be lost in the chemical reaction, they just turn into a different form.

Answered by Sam Matthews
Copy and paste for the win:

The "big idea" of energy, is a phrase designed to point out that everything in the universe is energy in one form to another and that the sum of energy is maintained.
Energy can only be transferred or transformed from one form or another such as matter (substance) or light (radiation).
Matter is composed entirely of energy bound up in a specific form. Radiation is energy liberated to travel freely through space until it encounters and reacts or interacts with other energy and under the right conditions alters the properties of, adds to or becomes new matter.

Hi all,

Just seen your comments, the big idea of energy is simply an idea that states that energy can not be created or destroyed, it just changes form.

For the ear defenders homework the energy changes from kinetic (vibrations) to sound.

The sulphur homework, the big idea is that you need heat to get the reaction going, the heat is transferred to light energy when the compound glows.

Hope it helps.

I did the Iron and Sulphur Reaction and got an 8b - it was easy, I'm doing the Ear Defenders homework now and the Big Idea of Energy Transfer is when you use a harder outer coating the sound waves bounce off it and if any do penetrate it, you have the soft foam within it to absorb the rest.
Answered by name
How do i do this

Drawn simple particle diagrams to show how the ear defenders will work.
„h Drawn diagrams to show where sound will be reflected and where it will be absorbed.

energy is neither lost or gained in a chemical reaction. you can never create or destroy energy

The idea is that the molecules have a lot of heat energy and so they are banging into eachother and if they bang with enough energy they join together.... hope this helped!!! :)

Answered by Charlamagne
the big idea of energy is v. simple. all it means is there is a certain ammount of energy in the universe. you can`t create or destroy energy. it can only change forms, so kinetic/movement energy can be transformed into heat energy. there. nutshell.

Answered by hey yal
I need to know this 'big idea of energy' thing to. Please answer the question just don't say you don't know!!! Btw it's to do withburning magnesium!!!
Answered by S.xox
The Big Idea Of Energy Is The Limited Amount Of Energy We Have In The World Today, For Example There Is Energy Say Kinetic Energy And You Can Change That Into Hear Energy, Potential Energy Whatever. For The Iron And Sulphur Reaction That I Am Doing I Clearly Stated That The Iron And Sulphur Burn At A Fixed Time Because They Are Using The Same Amount Of Heat Energy Produced.

lol i have already done jorney of a cheese sadwich and ear defenders now im doing the reaction between iron and sulphur
Answered by sfgghhjkkkkkkj
Ear defenders work by absorbing the sound that was headed to your ear. They absorb the sound waves by increasing air resistance this reduces the loudness of the waves. The energy is converted into heat and the person wearing them can hear sounds at quieter amplitude than the actual sound.
