Description:
Walking Robot and Energy Transformation:
A walking robot is a machine powered by electricity that uses an electric motor to convert electrical energy into kinetic energy, allowing it to move and perform tasks like walking or running.
- Electric Energy Input: Start by explaining that a walking robot is powered by electricity. It has a battery or another power source that provides electrical energy to make it move.
- Electric Motor: Describe how the robot uses an electric motor as its “muscles.” When the robot needs to take a step or move its limbs, the electric motor inside it starts working.
- Energy Conversion: Emphasize that the electric motor converts the electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is the kind of energy that makes things move.
- Motion: As the electric motor turns and moves the robot’s joints and limbs, it generates kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. This energy is what allows the robot to walk, run, or perform other movements.
- Walking Action: Explain that when the robot takes a step, its legs push against the ground, and this action requires energy. The converted kinetic energy powers these movements, propelling the robot forward.
- Efficiency: Mention that engineers work to make the conversion process from electrical to kinetic energy as efficient as possible, so the robot can move smoothly and use its battery efficiently.
Learning outcome:
Have a better understanding of a Walking Robot to exemplify the conversion of electric energy into kinetic energy for locomotion using the model built by the student in this project
