QUARTER 4: FORCE, MOTION AND ENERGY WEEK 6
MELC: Construct a model to demonstrate that heat can do work. (S9FE-IVe-42)
Explain how heat transfer and energy transformation make heat engines work. (S9FE-IVg-45)
Topic: HEAT, WORK, AND EFFICIENCY
Specific Objectives: At the end of the activity the students will be able to:
1. Explain how heat causes the internal energy of a system to change.
2. Demonstrate that heat can do work by constructing a model.
3. Infer that heat transfer can be used to do work and that work involves the release of heat.
4. Explain why machines are never 100-percent efficient.
Brief Descriptions:
Heat is the flow of energy from a high temperature location to a low temperature
location. This flow of energy is always associated with changes in the system and the
surroundings. There can be changes in the temperature, changes in the state of matter and
changes that result from the doing of work.
Instruction: To understand how heat causes the internal energy of a system to change.

Guide Questions:
1. What makes the turbine model move?
2. Does heat transfer applied from the model? Explain your answer.
3. Based on your observation from your output, how is it related to heat engines?
Energy transfer in the form of heat can result in the performance of work upon the
system or the surroundings. Devices that utilize heat to do work are often referred to as heat
engines. In general, an engine is a device that does work. A heat engine is a device that uses
heat transfer as the source of energy for doing work.
Heat transfer occurs any time there is a temperature difference between two objects
and occurs in the direction of decreasing temperature, meaning from a hot object to a cold
object. Although the mechanisms and laws governing the three modes of heat transfer are
quite different, they can co-occur in commonplace processes such as boiling a pot of water
over an open flame

Fig. 1. Water boiling on a stove offers an example of all three modes of heat transfer occurring at the same
time. Heat conducts through the metal fixture of the stove into the bottom of the pot of water. Heat also
radiates from the flame of the gas burner to the bottom of the pot. Convection transfers the heat from the
bottom of the pot to the water. (Credit: Ryerson Clark/Getty Images)
Efficiency is the percent of work put into a machine by the user (input work) that becomes work
done by the machine (output work). The output work is always less than the input work because some
of the input work is used to overcome friction. Therefore, efficiency is always less than 100 percent. The
closer to 100 percent a machine’s efficiency is, the better it is at reducing friction.
Calculating Efficiency
Efficiency can be calculated with the equation:
Efficiency= Output work ×100%
Input work
Consider a machine that puts out 6000 joules of work. To produce that much work from the machine
requires the user to put in 8000 joules of work. To find the efficiency of the machine, substitute these
values into the equation for efficiency:
Efficiency = 6000J × 100%
8000 J
Efficiency = 75%

Worksheet No. 1 Quarter 4 Week 6
Activity: Read and answer the following problems. Show your solution.
1. Rani puts 7500 joules of work into pushing a box up a ramp, but only 6700 joules of work actually go
into moving the box. The rest of the work overcomes friction between the box and the ramp. What is the
efficiency of the ramp?
2. What is the efficiency of a tractor that has a work output of 300J and a work input of 400 J?
