14. DOES THE TRANSFER OF ENERGY
TAKE PLACE WHEN YOU PUSH A HUGE
ROCK WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT & FAIL TO
MOVE IT? WHERE IS THE ENERGY YOU
SPEND GOING?
15. When we push a rock, we apply muscular force in
order to move it.
According to the law of conservation of energy, energy
can’t be created or destroyed, it can only be
transformed from one form to another.
Hence, even though the muscular force we apply does
not move the rock, our energy is converted into heat
energy due to which our body feels warm.
Energy transformation: Muscular Energy Heat
Energy
16. WHAT ARE THE VARIOUS ENERGY
TRANSFORMATIONS THAT OCCUR
WHEN YOU ARE RIDING A BICYCLE?
17. When we are riding a bicycle, we use our muscular
energy to make the cycle move and our body also
warms up in the process.
Hence, the muscular energy gets converted into
kinetic energy and heat energy.
Energy transformation:
Muscular energy Heat energy kinetic energy
