This
section lists the series of animations
that can be used to show students key
principles of energy, from Key Stage
3 to introductory Post-16.
The twelve booklets are grouped as follows:

Section
1: Temperature and energy

Animation
01
Booklet
1: Mixing
Energy and dye behave in similar
ways when they transfer from place
to place. That is useful for understanding
energy.

Animation
02
Booklet
2: Difference and flow
These animations use the energy-dye
comparison again. They show transfer
of energy and dye between two
quantities of water. They explore
the importance of difference.

Booklet
3: Spreading Out
These animations introduce ideas
about conservation (‘staying
the same’) and dissipation
(‘spreading very thinly’).

Booklet
4: Heating and Cooling
This builds on the ideas of the
first three booklets. It shows
how the ideas relate to everyday
events.

Animation
05
Booklet
5: Insulation
These animations deal with the
effects of insulation. They cover
various situations including a
hot water tank, frozen food, and
coins at room temperature.

Section
2: Energy stores and transfers
![](files/images/home_dotted2.gif)
![Hot Stores of Energy animation](files/images/stu_ani_6.jpg) |
|
Animation
06
Booklet
6: Hot stores of energy
These animations show that an
object that is hotter than its
surroundings acts as a store of
energy. Energy can transfer from
the hotter object EITHER by heating
its surroundings OR by way of
force and motion.

![Moving Stores of Energy animation](files/images/stu_ani_7.jpg) |
|
Animation
07
Booklet
7: Moving stores of energy
A moving object, just like a hot
object, acts as a store of energy.
Energy can transfer from the moving
object EITHER by heating the surroundings
OR by way of force and motion.

![Doing Work to Store Energy animation](files/images/stu_ani_8.jpg) |
|
Animation
08
Booklet
8: Doing work to store energy
It is possible to put energy into
stores by using force and motion.
Stretched springs and raised masses
act as the stores.

![Chemical Stores of Energy animation](files/images/stu_ani_9.jpg) |
|
Animation
09
Booklet
9: Chemical stores of energy
A battery acts as a store of energy.
It is a chemical store, from which
energy can transfer through a
circuit to the world around it.

|
Animation
10
Booklet
10: Storing and transferring
These animations look at the difference
between energy stores and energy
transfer devices.

Booklet
11: Some transfer devices
These animations explore transfers
of energy between some different
types of energy store.

11 [2]
Booklet
11: Some transfer devices
Energy stores and energy transfer
devices can operate together in
a ‘chain’.

Booklet
11: Some transfer devices
These animations provide more
practice with chains of energy
stores and transfer devices.

12
Booklet
12: Dissipation and efficiency
These animations use energy transfer
arrows to explore ideas about
energy transfer and dissipation.
