200

This is created during any energy transformation

What is thermal energy/heat?

200

A cold pot being heated on top of a heated stovetop is an example of this method of heat transfer.

What is conduction?

200
This is an educated guess about the outcome of an experiment, or a solution to a problem.

What is a hypothesis?

300

Burning your hand on a campfire is an example of this type of heat transfer.

What is conduction?

300

This is the name of what is flowing through a circuit that creates an electric current.

What are electrons?

400
This is the type of energy given off by the sun.

What is radiant energy?

400

What is potential energy into kinetic energy?

400

Ocean currents is an example of this method of heat transfer.

What is convection?

400

This word best describes how heat moves across spaces, in every direction, and moves towards colder objects but not towards warmer objects.

What is diffusion?

500

This type of energy is used when a machine has smaller, moving parts OR when an object has both potential and kinetic energy

What is mechanical energy?
