Toaster Energy
Heat
Heat is the transfer of energy from a hot object to a colder object, such as when toasting a slice of bread. The heat transfers onto the slice of bread which results in warm toast. When the slice of bread is heated, many things change; for example, the texture turns crunchy, the bread hardens, and the colour darkens. Where does the toast get its heat from? The toaster.
Toaster
A toaster is an electric small appliance designed to toast sliced bread by exposing it to heat. When a slice of bread is inserted into the toaster, the toaster uses infrared radiation to heat the slices of bread. What gives the heating element energy? Electricity.
Electricity
Electricity is a type of energy that can build up in one place or flow from one place to another. The electricity that a toaster uses is current electricity, which flows from one place to another. The toaster’s power cord is plugged into the power outlet and this allows the electricity to flow into the toaster. Where does electricity come from? From many different places, but in B.C. electricity mainly comes from …show more content…
The water is directed over a series of turbines that use the its energy to rotate the turbines. The rotating turbines are attached to generators which convert the rotating motion into electricity. What gives the hydroelectric dam its energy? The water reservoir.
Water
Water is a transparent and nearly colorless chemical substance that is the main component of Earth's streams, lakes, and oceans. The energy of moving and flowing water can be converted into electricity, which can be used in many ways.
Bacon
Bacon is a type of meat that comes from pigs, and it is taken from the sides, back, or belly of the pig. Bacon is eaten on its own, as a side dish, or used as a minor ingredient to flavour dishes, such as a sandwich. Where is bacon available for purchase? The
