Science in Focus: Energy: Workshop 3. Transfer and Conversion of Energy
Change happens when energy is transferred or converted. In this session, examine conversion between potential and kinetic energy. Through examples, see how events that involve a small amount of energy can trigger much larger events.,This segment explores the question "What happens when energy is converted from one form to another?" by visiting classrooms as well as interviewing students and scientists.
Carbon Dioxide and the Greenhouse Effect
This video explains the role of carbon dioxide in the Greenhouse Effect. Carbon dioxide is one of the gasses that absorbs the earth’s heat. This video provides a detailed explanation of the Greenhouse Effect as a vital process that sustains life on Earth. It also presents an experiment that shows how carbon dioxide absorbs thermal radiation, mimicking the Greenhouse Effect. (3:33)
