Types of Energy
The energy that is stored within an object.
What is Potential Energy.
The energy held by an object because of its high position compared to a lower position
What is.... gravitional energy?
Plugging in your cell phone to charge is a type of what energy?
What is Electrical energy?
The highest point of a wave causing the maximum displacement.
What is the crest?
The variable that you have control over in an experiment?
What is the Independent Variable?
The energy of an object that is in motion.
What is Kinetic energy.
The energy of the ability to do motion.
What is Mechanical Energy.
The passing of energy from one object to another, energy remains the same type.
What is Transfer.
The lowest point of a wave.
What is the trough
The variable that represents your data in a lab experiment.
What is Dependent Variable?
The energy that involves electromagnetic waves.
What is Radiant energy.
The energy of charged particle (electrons) movement.
What is Electrical Energy.
Energy that changes from one form to another.
What is Transformation
If a wave has a wavelength of 100 meters and a frequency of 2, what is the speed of the wave?
What is 200 m/s?
The proper format for writing a hypothesis.
The energy related to the movement of particles (temperature)
What is Thermal energy.
The energy made by vibrations.
What is Sound Energy.
List the types of energy that are used in the scenario and list if they are transferred or transformed from each type. 1) You turn on the ignition of a car cause combustion to occur. 2) The pistons in the engine begin to move starts and you 3) press the gas pedal and 4) drive away.
What is start with chemical (gasoline), transform to mechanical (engine), transfer to mechanical (pressing gas pedal), transfer to mechanical (driving)
A wave that moves perpendicular to its motion and does not require a medium to travel through.
What are transverse waves?
Based on the following scenario what are the IV, DV, and constant (Each are worth 400 points)?
Different rose bushes are grown in a greenhouse for two months. The number of flowers on each bush is counted at the end of an experiment.
What is IV: Rose bushes, DV: number of flowers, Constant: same greenhouse
The energy that is stored within matter and released upon fission or fusion.
What is Nuclear energy?
The energy that is stored in chemical compounds.
What is Chemical energy.
List the types of energy that are used in the scenario and list if they are transferred or transformed from each type. 1) Sunlight is shining on a solar panel 2) The solar panel is connected to a light bulb 3) the light bulb turns on.
What is radiant energy transforms into electrical energy, which is transformed into radiant/ thermal energy.
A Wave that moves parallel to its motion and requires a medium to travel through.
What are longitudinal waves?
Based on the following scenario what are the IV, DV, and control (Each are worth 500 points)?
You water three sunflower plants with salt water. Each plant receives a different concentration of salt solutions. A fourth plant receives regular water. After a two-week period, the height is measured.
What is.... IV: levels of salt in the water, DV: Height of the plant, control: plant who receives regular water.
