Energy
Energy that is stored.
What is potential?
The push or pull of one object on another. Gravity can also pull on objects to cause this.
What is force?
The energy associated with the random motion of particles in matter.
What is thermal energy?
The transfer of thermal energy from one object to another.
What is heat?
Copper, gold, silver, water, and metal are examples of this.
What are examples of good conductors?
What is kinetic?
The result of a force applied to an object.
What is work?
A measure of how much thermal energy is in matter.
What is temperature?
What is an insulator?
Wood, plastic, rubber, cloth are examples of this.
What are examples of good insulators?
A hamburger before it is eaten is an example of this type of energy.
What is an example of potential energy?
A principle in science that states energy cannot be created or destroyed.
What is Conservation of Energy?
This type of insulating material would be good for a container where you wanted to keep things hot because it has a lot of air pockets in it.
What is foam?
A type of matter that promotes the transfer of thermal energy.
What is a conductor?
A running stream would be an example of this type of energy.
What is an example of kinetic energy?
The transfer of thermal energy through solids.
What is conduction?
An orange on a high branch would be an example of this type of energy.
What is an example of potential energy?
The transfer of thermal energy through liquids or gases.
What is convection?
