SCI-04.PS3.02 Make observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred
from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents.
Clarification Statement: Emphasis on the transfer of energy whenever objects are moving. Examples of how sound,
light, and heat can transfer energy. Disciplinary Core Ideas Energy can be transferred from place to place by moving
objects or through sound, light, or electric currents.
Energy is present whenever there are moving objects, sound,
light, or heat. When objects collide, energy can be transferred,
thereby changing their motion. In such collisions, some energy
is typically also transferred to the surrounding air; as a result,
the air gets heated and sound is produced.
Energy can also be transferred from place to place by electric
currents, which can be used to produce motion, sound, heat,
or light. The currents may have been produced to begin with
by transforming the energy of motion into electrical energy
