 What I Need to Know
In this module, you are expected to:

Demonstrate how sound, heat, light and electricity can be transformed (S6FEIIId-f-2 The

activities included are designed for you to achieve the following objectives:

1. describe how energy is transformed from one form to another; and

2. demonstrate how radiant (light) and electricity can be transformed.

What’s In

In the previous lesson, you learned about the different forms of energy. Can you still recall them?
Answer the activity below.

Activity 1: What Am I?
Directions: Identify the forms of energy used in the following activities / appliances. Write your
answer inside the box.

Drying clothes Cooking of food Lighted candle Lighted lamp Sewing of clothes

The world population relies heavily on energy of all forms. Energy appears in different forms: heat, light,
sound, and electricity. It can flow from one place to another and can be transformed from one form to another.
Every day of our life, you experience multiple energy transformations. For everything, energy transformation
is always involved.

 Activity 3: Investigating the Transformation of Energy

Problem: How is energy transformed to another form?

What you need:
Battery-operated toy
Candle or alcohol lamp
Matches
What you need to do:
Observe how energy is transformed in the different objects when they work.
A. Light the candle
B. Place the battery in the battery-operated toy

What have you found out:

1. What form of energy is present in the candle?

2. How is energy change to another form when the candle was lighted?

3. What form of energy is present in the battery?

4. How is this energy changed when it is placed in a toy?

Safety Tips:
* Never play with matches, candles or alcohol lamps.

* Do it with your parents or guardian before performing the activity.

 What is it
Energy can be changed freely from one form to another. Energy that is stored can be released and
transformed to do useful jobs for us. Changes in the forms of energy are called energy transformation.

Radiant or Light Energy

Energy transformation starts when radiant energy strikes the earth’s surface. Some of the energy is
transformed by photosynthesis into a chemical energy stored in the carbohydrate molecules in the plant.
When humans or animals eat plants, the chemical energy in the plant is transferred and becomes chemical
energy in the human or animal’s body.

As animals perform body process like digestion, respiration, and circulation, their process are
powered by the chemical energy stored in their body, which is then transformed into mechanical energy. The
same thing happens when work is being done. The energy that will power dancing, running, jumping, and
other bodily activities comes from the transformation of chemical energy into mechanical energy. As chemical
energy is transformed to mechanical energy and mechanical energy powers various body activities, heat is
released, which is another form of energy.

RADIANT ENERGY
CHEMICAL ENERGY

Chemical energy stored in the plants is

transferred to the cow.

HEAT ENERGY is released

MECHANICAL ENERGY
The chemical energy stored in animals
is transferred to a human and stored in
his body.

Chemical energy is
changed to mechanical
when doing anything.

Note: Always remember that the arrow ( ) represents the transfer of energy to another.

 Energy transformation also occurs in some objects that we use. In your activity, when you lighted a
lamp or candle, the chemical energy of the candle is changed into light energy, and at the same time, heat
is produced.

CHEMICAL ENERGY LIGHT and HEAT ENERGY

Electrical Energy
Many appliances you use every day change electrical energy into other forms. When you use a
toaster, it changes electrical energy into thermal energy. The wires in a toaster are poor conductors. They do
not let the current hit the atoms in the wire. The bumping of electrons raises the thermal energy of the atoms,
causing the wire to become red and hot. The light energy toasts the bread.

ELECTRICAL ENERGY LIGHT and HEAT ENERGY

Electric motors change electrical energy to mechanical energy. Electric

motors run many
appliances at home. Washing machines, blenders, egg beaters, and electric fan run by electric motors. When
the appliance is turned on, the electric motor changes electrical energy into mechanical energy.

ELECTRICAL ENERGY MECHANICAL ENERGY

Electrical energy also enables people to communicate through telephones or other similar communication
devises. You hear someone talking to you on the line because electrical energy is transformed into sound
energy.

ELECTRICAL ENERGY SOUND ENERGY

Indeed, electricity is involved in several activities in this modern world. It is commonly used and transformed
into different forms to run the appliances and other devices that are needed for everyday living.

 What I Have Learned
Activity 5. Wrap Me Up!
Directions: Complete the paragraph below. Encircle the correct answer inside the parenthesis.

 I learned that … As light energy travels from the sun to earth’s surface, some of this energy
is transformed by photosynthesis into (mechanical, chemical, electrical) energy stored in the
carbohydrate molecules in the plant. When humans or animals eat plants, the chemical energy in
the plant is transferred and becomes (chemical, mechanical, heat) energy in the human or animal’s
body. As they perform, their body changes the chemical energy in food into (mechanical, heat,
sound) energy and (chemical, mechanical, heat) energy as they walk, jump or run.

In addition, many appliances we use every day change electrical energy into other forms.
When you use a toaster, it changes electrical energy into (mechanical, sound, thermal) energy.
Electric motors change electrical energy to (chemical, heat, mechanical) energy. Electrical energy
also enables people to communicate through telephones or other similar communication devises.
You hear someone talking to you on the line because electrical energy is transformed into (sound,
light, heat) energy. To be able to write and show energy transformation, energy (line, arrow, shape)
are used.

Indeed, electricity is involved in several activities in this modern world. Energy can be
transformed from one to another to make it more useful. Changes in the forms of energy are called
(energy transfer, energy conservation, energy transformation).

My Final Farewell

Farewell, dear Fatherland, clime of the sun caress'd Let the sun draw the vapors up to the sky,

Pearl of the Orient seas, our Eden lost!, And heavenward in purity bear my tardy protest

Gladly now I go to give thee this faded life's best, Let some kind soul o 'er my untimely fate sigh,

And were it brighter, fresher, or more blest And in the still evening a prayer be lifted on high

Still would I give it thee, nor count the cost. From thee, 0 my country, that in God I may rest.

On the field of battle, 'mid the frenzy of fight, Pray for all those that hapless have died,

Others have given their lives, without doubt or heed; For all who have suffered the unmeasur'd pain;

The place matters not-cypress or laurel or lily white, For our mothers that bitterly their woes have cried,

Scaffold or open plain, combat or martyrdom's plight, For widows and orphans, for captives by torture tried

T is ever the same, to serve our home and country's need. And then for thyself that redemption thou mayst gain

I die just when I see the dawn break, And when the dark night wraps the graveyard around

Through the gloom of night, to herald the day; Wit h only the dead in their vigil to see

And if color is lacking my blood thou shalt take, Break not my repose or the mystery profound

Pour'd out at need for thy dear sake And perchance thou mayst hear a sad hymn resound

To dye with its crimson the waking ray. 'T is I, O my country, raising a song unto thee.

My dreams, when life first opened to me, And even my grave is remembered no more

My dreams, when the hopes of youth beat high, Unmark'd by never a cross nor a sto ne

Were to see thy lov'd face, O gem of the Orient sea Let the plow sweep through it, the spade turn it o'er
