Energy! What created it? Where does it come from? Why is it wearing those horrible shoes? Some questions may never be answered about the mysteries of energy but there are a few things we do understand about it:
1. Energy has no mass
2. Energy does not take up space (it has no volume)
3. Energy is the capacity to do work (ability to move matter)
Some examples of energy are light, heat, motion and electricity.
Tonight's homework is Thinksheet #4. There are four images on the page. We need to list as many examples of matter and energy as we can. For example here is what I wrote for the last photo with the space shuttle launching:
Matter: launch tower, rocket tanks, space shuttle, smoke
Energy: light, heat, motion, sound (the blast-off)
