P1.2 energyefficiency
1. P1.2 Energy and
efficiency
Appliances transfer energy but they rarely transfer all
of the energy to the place we want. We need to
know the efficiency of appliances so that we can
choose between them, including how cost effective
they are, and try to improve them.
2. ✓ compare the efficiency and cost effectiveness
of methods used to reduce ‘energy consumption’
✓ describe the energy transfers and the main
energy wastages that occur with a range of
appliances
✓ interpret and draw a Sankey diagram.
5. P1.2.1 Energy transfers and efficiency
a) Energy can be transferred usefully, stored, or
dissipated, but cannot be created or destroyed.
b) When energy is transferred, only part of it may be
usefully transferred; the rest is ‘wasted’.
c) Wasted energy is eventually transferred to the
surroundings, which become warmer. The wasted
energy becomes increasingly spread out and so
becomes less useful.
6. d) To calculate the efficiency of a device using:
efficiency = useful energy out (x100%)
total energy in
efficiency = useful power out (x100%)
total power in
8. More efficient so less electricity needed
Less fuel burned, so less CO2 produced
Changes in picture brightness and loudness
of sound affect energy transfer
9. Sankey diagrams can be used to show efficiencies:
An efficient machine
An inefficient machine
12. Efficiency = (useful ÷ total) x 100%
= (28 ÷ 50) x 100%
= 56%
More efficient so less electricity needed
Less fuel burned, so less CO2 produced

14. P1.3 The usefulness of
electrical appliances
We often use electrical appliances because they
transfer energy at the flick of a switch. We can
calculate how much energy is transferred by an
appliance and how much the appliance costs to
run.
15. ✓ compare the advantages and disadvantages of
using different electrical appliances for a particular
application
✓ consider the implications of instances when
electricity is not available.
I can:
19. Name one transducer (device) that changes:
A. Sound energy to electrical energy
…………………………………………….
B. Chemical energy to electrical energy
…………………………………………….
C. Electrical energy to light energy
…………………………………………….
D. Potential energy to kinetic energy
…………………………………………….
20. Draw a chain diagram to show the energy changes that occur
when:
A. An electric drill is switched on
B. A Bunsen burner is ignited
C. A mass is lifted 1 metre
D. A bullet is fired from a rifle
E. A rubber ball is bounced on the floor.
21. b) The amount of energy an appliance transfers
depends on how long the appliance is switched on
and its power.
c) To calculate the amount of energy transferred from
the mains using:
E = P x t
E is energy transferred in
kilowatt-hours, kWh
P is power in kilowatts, kW
t is time in hours, h
22. Example
How much energy is transferred if a 1 kW fire is
left on for 2 hours?
Solution
Using E = P x t
Substituting in P = 1 kW and t = 2 h gives
E = 1 x 2 = 2 kWh
23. d) To calculate the cost of mains electricity given the
cost kilowatt-hour.
If 1 kWh cost 14p.
How much does it cost to run a 1 KW fire for 2
hours?
We have already calculated the kWh above
So the cost will be 14 x 2 = 28p
24. energy = power × time
power = 850 W = 0.85 kW,
time = 6 minutes = 0.1 h
Energy = 0.85 x 0.1
= 0.085 kWh
32. Difference in kWh per year
=
350-225 = 125 kWh
Cost = 125 x 12
= 1500p
= £15
33. Each year costs £15.
So a reduction in (12-9) 3 years gives
a saving of 3 x 15 = £45
34. YES
