An intergalactic challenge
Sigfrid is hungry!!!
Sig is an incredible being; he may seem frightening but the truth is that he is a calm, intelligent, sensitive being, and ... like us, he feeds on energy. But energy in its purest state. To learn more about Sig, explore the icons on his picture. Sig has arrived on our planet and doesn't know what kind of energy he can eat, he is really desperate and needs our help.
Explore!
Types of energy
In his world, Sig feeds on different types of energies, but here he's having trouble identifying which ones he can and can't eat.
What can we do to save him?
What questions can we ask Sig to find out what type of energy there is on his planet? Which types of energy does Sig know?
To find out more about the energies in Sig's world:
- In pairs, prepare a list of questions to interview Sig.
- One of you will be the researcher and the other will be Sig, who will answer the questions and give us clues.

Energy and its properties
Explore!
What are the properties of energy?
Energy is electrical, heatable, and stays in motion.
Energy takes the form of the container that contains it.
Energy can be transformed, transferred, transported, stored
Energy and its properties
Explore!
What transformation occurs in a steam engine?
The thermal energy produced by the coal heats water, which evaporates. The pressurized steam produces mechanical energy and drives the machine.
Heat energy is transformed into chemical energy.
Solar energy heats water that is transformed into electricity in a motor that drives the locomotive.
Energy and its properties
Explore!
What transformations does the energy undergo in a hydroelectric power plant?
The mechanical energy of moving water is transformed into electrical energy.
Mechanical wind energy moves water and produces electrical energy.
The heat energy of water is transformed into thermal energy.
Energy and its properties
Explore!
How is energy transformed in a solar panel?
In a solar panel, the light energy from the sun is transformed into electrical energy and the thermal energy radiated by the sun can be used for heating or hot water.
In a solar panel, the sun's heat is transformed into electrical energy.
In a solar panel, the sun's heat heats the water, which turns into steam and drives a turbine that produces electricity and also heats the water.

Renewable and non-renewable energies
Humans use a lot of electrical and mechanical energy in our daily lives. Where do we get it from? Depending on their origin, we can classify them as energies from renewable and non-renewable sources.

What's the difference between renewable and non-renewable energy sources?
Renewable energy sources are those that produce clean energy, but can be depleted.
Renewable sources are inexhaustible and non-renewable sources come from limited resources that are depleting.
Renewable energy sources are based on fossil fuels.

Closing
What is energy?
It is the capacity of matter to produce changes.
It is the movement on Earth.
It is the electricity and heat produced by matter.
Correct!
Exactly, energy is the capacity of bodies to do work and produce changes in themselves or in other bodies. The concept of energy is defined as the ability to make things work.
Closing
What are the renewable energy sources?
Fossil fuels and atomic energy
Sun, water, wind, the internal heat of the earth, and biomass
The sun, the universe, and electricity
Correct!
Yes! Renewable energy sources are those that regenerate and do not run out.
Closing
What is the property of energy that allows us to warm ourselves in the sun?
Light energy
The ability to transform from light to heat
The ability to transfer from one body to another
Correct!
Yes! The ability to transfer from one body to another is a property of energy. It can be transferred by conduction, radiation or convection. In the example of warming ourselves in the sun, the sun radiates thermal energy and our body receives it in the form of heat.
Closing
Why is the sun the most important source of energy on Earth?
Because in addition to radiating thermal and light energy, its energy regulates winds, ecosystems and allows life on earth.
Because we extract electrical energy from it with solar panels.
Because it gives us daylight.
Correct!
Yes, the sun is the most important source of energy because in addition to giving us light and heat, it is the origin of many other phenomena on earth that produce energy.
Closing
Which of these properties is the one that allows us to produce electrical energy from water?
The ability to produce heat
The ability to radiate energy from a body
The ability to transform
Correct!
That's right! The mechanical energy of falling water, which we call hydraulic energy, moves the turbine blades of a generator, producing electrical energy. In other words, thanks to the property that energy has of transforming itself, we obtain electrical energy from water.
