Energy
The two types of energy.
Kinetic and Potential
Energy that results from the position or motion of charged particles.
Electrical Energy
All particles that make up matter are constantly in motion.
Kinetic theory of matter
Temperature is measured in these equally spaced units between two points.
Degrees
Energy transferred from an object at a higher temperature to an object at a lower temperature.
Heat
Energy of an object due to motion
Kinetic Energy
This type of energy is transmitted through space in the form of electromagnetic waves.
Electromagnetic Energy
Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only change forms.
Law of Conservation of Energy
Temperature is measured using this instrument.
Thermometer
Amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1 degree C.
calorie
Energy an object has due to its position, condition, or chemical composition.
Potential Energy
This is kinetic energy caused by the vibration of particles in a medium such as steel, water, or air.
Sound Energy
When energy changes from one form into another form.
Energy Transformation
Body Temperature in Celsius.
37C
Transfer of energy as heat from one substance to another through direct contact.
Conduction
The sum of an object's kinetic and potential energy.
Mechanical Energy
This form of potential energy depends on the kinds of atoms and their arrangement.
Chemical Energy
Total kinetic energy of all particles in a substance.
Thermal Energy
Room Temperature in Fahrenheit.
68F
Material that is a poor conductor of heat.
Insulator
The ability to cause change as defined in science.
Energy
Energy from the nucleus of an atom. When an atom's nucleus breaks apart or when the nuclei of two small atoms join together, energy is released.
Nuclear Energy
Temperature
Water freezes at this temperature in Kelvin.
273K
Transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves.
Radiation
