Energy Workers of the World Energy workers have an enormous impact on our world. It’s hard to believe that not even 80 years ago we were without electricity. As technology advances‚ it has become apparently easier for man to live comfortably. People do not realize how important these workers are and what life would be like without them. Almost everything we do‚ each and everyday‚ involves something to do with what an energy worker has pursued. Some of these things include lights‚ computers‚ televisions

Role of energy in the body There are six main forms of energy- Chemicals Heat Electrical Light Nuclear Sound Energy can be measured or expressed by joules or unites of hear (kilocalorie). 1 kilocalorie= 4.184 kilojoules. Sources of energy- Protein 1g= 4 kcal Carbohydrate 1g= 4 kcal Fats 1g= 9 kcal In our bodies we need energy we need energy for everything we do‚ move our muscles‚ talk etc. Without energy we wouldn’t be able to do anything‚ energy is needed for our bodies to function

Energy content is an important property of food. The energy your body needs for running‚ talking‚ and thinking comes from the food you eat. Energy content is the amount of heat produced by the burning of 1 gram of a substance‚ and is measured in joules per gram (J/g). Usually‚ fat-rich foods like peanuts and cashews provide more energy than just carbohydrates like marshmallows. You can determine the energy content by burning a portion of food and capturing the heat released to a known mass of
