Energy and the EnvironmentEnergy
Capacity to do work (W=F·s) Units
• Distance, s (m)• Force: Mass x Acceleration, F=ma: Newton (kg·m/s2)• Work or Energy
Joule = kg·m2/s2
Calorie (Amt of heat needed to raise 1 g water 1 deg C)1 Cal = 4.184 J
BTU (Amt of heat needed to raise 1 lb water 1 deg F)1 BTU = 1054 J
1 kWh = 3.6x106 J 1 Quad = 1015 BTU

Assignment for 09/16/09
The last slide contains a list of primary energy sources, extraction and conversion technologies and end use technologies. A new book on energy is about to be published, which covers all of these subjects.
As an assistant editor you have been tasked to help write the blurb for the book jacket. Your job is to provide the editor with approximately 300 words on each of two subtopics that appear in the lists. The editor will select two of them to highlight for the book jacket. You may select any two subtopics: you may choose all of them from one category, or you may mix them.
