Kinetic/Potential Energy
The ability to do work.
What is energy?
Energy carried by electricity.
What is electrical energy?
The wave particles travel parallel to the direction the wave is moving.
What is a longitudinal wave?
A change from one type of energy to another.
What are energy transformations?
Plugging in a toaster
What is electrical energy?
A rock at the top of a hill.
What is potential energy
Energy an object has due to its motion, position or condition.
What is mechanical energy?
the wave particles travel at right angles to the direction of wave travel.
What is a transverse wave?
The energy of an object due to its motion or position.
What is mechanical energy?
Heat from a candle
What is thermal energy?
The energy any object has because of its motion/movement.
What is kinetic energy?
Energy formed when an atom splits apart or when two atoms join to form one.
What is nuclear energy?
The number of waves produced in a given time period.
What is frequency?
The physical vibration of waves that travel through the air to reach your ears.
What is sound energy?
Food.
What is chemical energy?
Stored energy or energy that an object has due to its position.
What is potential energy?
Energy stored in food or batteries.
What is chemical energy?
The length of a wave. This can be measured easily from crest to crest or from trough to trough.
What is wavelength?
When is the potential energy of a skateboarder on a ramp the highest?
What is at the top of the ramp?
Energy that is generated by the potential of matter to fall towards Earth.
What is gravitational potential energy?
As a roller coaster car goes down a hill, its potential energy is changed into this.
What is kinetic energy?
Energy of the movement of atoms and molecules, results in heat.
What is thermal energy?
The height or depth of a wave.
What is amplitude?
Where the kinetic energy of a skateboarder on a ramp is at its highest.
What is at the bottom?
Energy cannot be created nor destroyed.
What is the on Conservation of Energy?
