WORK, HEAT AND EFFICIENCY

 Subject:/Grade Level: Science 9

 Unit Topic: Heat, Work and Efficiency

 CONTENT STANDARDS: The learners demonstrate

an understanding of: The relationship among
heat, work, and efficiency.

 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS: The learners shall

be able to: Analyse how power plants generate
and transmit electrical energy.
 LEARNING COMPETENCIES: The learners should be able to:

 Infer that heat transfer can be used to do work and that

work involves the release of heat (A);
 Discuss the Law of Thermodynamics (A);
 Explain and discuss the law of Thermodynamics; and (M);
 Explain why machines are never 100-percent efficient (M);
 Explain how heat transfer and energy transformation make
heat engines like geothermal plants work (M) and
 Construct a model to demonstrate that heat can do work;
(T)
 LEARNING TARGETS:
 I can identify the laws of thermodynamics ( A)
 I can infer that doing work releases heat. ( A )
 I can infer that heat transfer can be used to do
work and that work involved the release of heat
(M)
 I can explain why machines are never 100%
efficient (M)
 I can explain how heat transfer energy ( M)
 I can demonstrate that heat can be turned to
work. (M)
 I can construct a model to demonstrate that heat
can do work. (T)

NCE
SITUA Baguio city and the nearby community are experiencing power shortage especially in the months of April to
TION May.
This affects the business establishments, tourism and the community as a whole.
In line with the celebration of the energy conservation needs, your school plans to collaborate with the local
office of the Department of Energy and organize a student-initiated campaign on conserving energy.
