100
The total kinetic energy of all the particles in a substance.
What is thermal energy?
100
The opposite of an energy source that can be easily reproduced or replaced by nature.
What is a nonrenewable resource?
200
The energy of an object, due to it's motion. The Energy that an object has due to it's position, condition, or chemical composition.
What is kinetic Energy and what is Potential Energy
200
Three ways to measure temperature.
What is Kelvin, Fahrenheit, and Celsius?
200
The energy transferred from an object at a higher temperature to an object at a lower temperature.
What is heat?
200
Coal, Natural Gas, and Petroleum
What are the fossil fuels?
300
A law that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed and only can change forms.
What is law of conservation of energy
300
A theory that states that all of the particles that make up matter are constantly in motion.
What is the kinetic theory of matter?
300
By using it's fur as an insulator.
How does a polar bear stay warm?
300
Solar energy, nucelar energy, hydroelectric energy, and wind energy, geothermal energy, and biomass.
What is a Alternative sources of energy?
400
A form of potential energy.
What is Chemical Energy
400
The particles move freely at high speeds
How do the particles move in a gas?
400
A cheap and portable way to sterilize water.
What is a solar cooker
400
When burning fossil fuels create sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, and it forms when these gases combine with water in the air and then fall to the earth.
