Drag the Water container onto the stand.

Drag and attach the thermometer to the container.

Drag the Water container onto the stand.

Drag and attach the thermometer to the container.

Drag and hold the slider of the heat regulator upwards.

Point to vapours.

heat regulator

Point to energy chunks.

Now drag and hold the slider of the heat regulator upwards to heat the Water.

As the temperature increases water evaporates and vapours are observed.

Also observe that energy chunks escape into the atmosphere.

Drag and hold the slider of the heat regulator downwards.

Point to water in container.

Drag and place the container on the workbench.

Next drag and hold the slider of the heat regulator downwards to cool the Water.

As the temperature decreases water freezes and becomes ice.

Drag and place the container on the workbench.

Drag the Iron block and place it on stand.

Drag >>place the thermometer on the Iron block.

Now drag the Iron block and place it on the first stand.

Drag and place the thermometer on the Iron block.

Drag Brick block and Water container to a side. Move the Brick block and Water container to a side.
Point to energy chunks in Iron block.

Point to thermometer.

Before you start heating, note the number of energy chunks in the Iron block.

Observe the temperature on the thermometer.

Drag and hold the slider of the heat regulator upwards. Drag and hold the slider of the heat regulator upwards to heat the Iron block.
Point to energy chunks.

Cursor on the interface.

Point to energy chunks in Iron block.

Observe that energy from heat is transferred to Iron block in the form of chunks.

Here internal energy of Iron block increases.

This is due to the flow of heat from the heat source to Iron block.

Point to energy chunks of Iron block going into atmosphere.

Point to temperature of Iron block.

Observe that some chunks from Iron block escape into the atmosphere.

This results in decrease in the temperature of Iron block.

Drag the slider up on the heat regulator. Again heat the Iron block to maximum temperature.
Place the heated Iron block in the Water container. Drag and place the heated Iron block in the Water container.
Point to energy chunks.

Point to thermometer of Iron block.

Point to thermometer of Water container.

Energy chunks travel from hot Iron block into Water.

This results in, decrease in the temperature of Iron Block.

Water becomes hot and its temperature increases.

Point to thermometers of Iron block and Water container. This heat transfer process continues till objects reach thermal equilibrium.
Click on Fast Forward radio-button. Let us choose Fast Forward option to make the process faster.
Place the Iron block on the heat regulator.

Drag and hold the slider down.

Point to thermometer of Iron block.

Now again place the Iron block on the heat regulator.

Drag and hold the slider down to cool the Iron block.

Cool the Iron block until thermometer reaches its minimum temperature.

Place the Iron block in Water container.

Point to thermometer of Iron block and Water container.

Again place the cooled Iron block in Water container.

Note the temperature changes and energy chunks transformation.

Place the Iron and Brick blocks on stand.

Drag >>place the thermometer on the Brick block.

Drag and hold the slider of the heat regulator upwards.

Now place both the blocks on to the stands.

Drag and place the thermometer on the Brick block.

Heat the blocks one by one until you will see maximum rise in temperatures.

Cursor on the interface.

Point to thermometers.

Wait till thermal equilibrium is established.

Observe the decrease in temperatures.

Point to energy chunks of Iron block and Brick block.

Point to Iron block and Brick block.

Observe that Iron block has more number of energy chunks than Brick block.

This indicates that Iron has more thermal conductivity than Brick.

Slide Number 10

Assignment

As an assignment,

Heat Iron block and Brick block at the same time.

Place heated Iron block above the heated Brick block.

And explain the observation.

Point to Energy Systems tab. Now we will move on to Energy Systems screen.
Click on Energy Systems tab.

Cursor on Energy Systems screen.

Click on Energy Systems tab.

Energy Systems screen opens.

Cursor on Energy Systems screen. This screen gives an idea about conservation of energy from everyday life.
Point to set of energy sources.

Point to turbine and solar system.

Point to set of receivers.

Screen at the bottom has a set of-

Energy sources

Electrical energy generation systems and

Receivers.

Point to Reset All button. Reset All button is available at the bottom right corner of the screen.
Point to Faucet, turbine, Water container and thermometer. By default screen has a set up of-

Faucet as energy source,

Turbine as Electrical energy generation system and

Water container with thermometer as a receiver.

Click on Energy Symbols check-box.

Point to Forms of Energy panel.

Point to each energy in the panel.

Click on Energy Symbols check-box.

Forms of Energy panel will display.

Forms of Energy panel helps you to identify the various forms of energy.

Drag the blue slider.

Point to Mechanical Energy chunks.

Now drag the blue slider to turn on the faucet.

Notice that water flowing from faucet has Mechanical energy.

Point to Electrical energy chunks.

Point to thermometer attached to Water container.

This Mechanical energy turns the turbine which creates Electrical energy.

This energy causes the temperature of the water to increase.

Point to vapours of water.

Point to Thermal energy chunks.

As the temperature increases water evaporates and vapours are observed.

It gives off more Thermal energy into the atmosphere.

Cursor on the interface. Here energy is conserved as total energy of the system remains constant.
Let's set up another energy system.
Click on Sun button.

Click on solar panel button.

Here we will select Sun as a energy source.

Replace the turbine with solar panel.

Click on incandescent bulb button. Now instead of Water container, select incandescent bulb.
Point to clouds slider at None.

Point to Light energy.

In this system, initially their is no cloud.

Here the sun is the source of Light energy.

Point to Electrical energy.

Point to bulb.

This light energy is absorbed by the solar panel to create Electrical energy.

This Electrical energy causes the bulb to glow.

Point to Light energy and Thermal energy chunks. The incandescent bulb converts Electrical energy into,

a lot of Thermal energy and very little Light energy.

This is because the filament gets heated up.

Click on fluorescent bulb.

Point to fluorescent light bulb.

Next replace the incandescent bulb with the fluorescent bulb.

Observe the energy output of fluorescent bulb.

Point to fluorescent light bulb. Notice that,

The fluorescent bulb releases more Light energy and less Thermal energy.

Therefore fluorescent bulb is more efficient.

Now let's see the effect of Clouds on solar panel.
Drag the Clouds blue slider gradually from None to Lots.

Points to clouds.

Drag the Clouds slider gradually from None to Lots.

As you drag the slider, clouds appear.

Point to Light energy.

Point to solar panel.

Due to the presence of clouds light energy does not reach the solar panel.

So generation of Electrical energy stops.
