Stored Energy
How do you find an object's mechanical energy? A. kinetic plus potential energy B. kinetic plus thermal energy C. kinetic plus chemical energy
What is A. kinetic plus potential energy
When thermal energy is increased, temperature increases. When thermal energy is DECREASED, temperature will do this.
What is go down, lower, decrease, etc.?
This is where a ball rolling down a hill has the most potential energy.
What is the top of the hill?
Nuclear fusion reactions occur where? A. Nuclear Power Plants B. microwave ovens C. the sun
What is C. the sun
List at least 2 types of energy used by a TV.
What is electromagnetic energy, electrical energy, thermal energy
Using a magnifying glass to focus the rays from the sun, you can transform solar energy into this type of energy.
What is thermal/heat energy?
If you bent down and prepared to jump, it would be considered this form of energy.
What is potential energy?
A form of energy NOT associated with particles. A. thermal energy B. mechanical energy C. nuclear energy
What is B. mechanical energy
Clouds are visible to use because THIS form of energy is reflected off earth.
What is electromagnetic energy?
A ball being dropped and bouncing is a good example of this form of energy.
What is kinetic energy?
The total potential and kinetic energy of the PARTICLES of an object. A. nuclear energy B. thermal energy C. mechanical energy
What is C. thermal energy
This form of energy can be converted from solar energy, chemical energy, and mechanical energy to help power appliances throughout your home.
What is electrical energy?
Electrical energy is the energy of what?
What is electric charges.
Mechanical energy is associated with the motion, position, or ________________ of an object.
What is shape.
All of the following except one are examples of kinetic energy in use: a person on a swing, a ball being dropped, a book on a table, a baseball bat swinging.
What is a book on a table?
What is C. nuclear
What is electrical energy
