Summary

The activities in this module show vou that the working principles of natural

objects Such as waterfalls and man-made devices from simpile toys, to hydro-

powered electric plants and amusement park rides all involve the use, transter and

transformation of different mechanical energies.

The concepts you learned from Module 1 on two-dimension motions and of

momentum changes and its conservation are integrated here as you demonstrated

the Law of Energy Conservation through the activities.

Tne constructed turbine device and water reservoir model your group

constructed can also be used in the remaining Modules 3 and 4 for this quarter. t

would be best to keep these or modify for later use in this quarter. With little

modification, these can be used to show how heat energy can be converted to work.

Moreover, it can also be used to show how mechanical energy from the turbine can

be converted into electrical energy using a dynamo working in reverse. All of these

are in store for you in the next two modules.
