The Energy of Motion
What is kinetic energy?
An example of a wave that does NOT need matter to travel.
What is light?
This most basic unit of life makes up tissues, organs, and organ systems in our bodies.
What is a cell?
The state of matter with the most amount of kinetic energy.
What is a gas?
Evidence of this type of reaction can be change in color, unexpected temperature change, and bubbling.
What is a chemical change?
The type of energy determined by height.
What is gravitational potential energy?
Visible light, microwaves, and Xrays are all a part of this spectrum.
What is the Electromagnetic Spectrum?
What is the digestive system?
When an objects particles are vibrating in place they are in this state of matter.
What is a solid?
The change from a gas to a liquid.
What is condensation?
On a rollercoaster, Timmy has the greatest potential energy at this point.
What is the highest point? (Top of the hill)
The matter that a wave travels through is called this. Hint: Some waves do not need a _________ to travel.
What is a medium?
This part of the cell is only found in plants and is responsible for the structure of the cell.
What is the cell wall?
When an objects particles move faster after touching a hotter object, this type of energy is transferred.
What is thermal energy?
What is Newtons 3rd law? (Will take "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.")
This force turns kinetic energy into thermal energy.
What is friction?
This type of wave can travel in a vacuum (place with no matter.)
What is an electromagnetic wave? (Will take light wave as well.)
Carbs turn into energy for the body, which made through cellular respiration. Energy is stored as this 3 letter molecule in the body.
What is ATP?
This is the average amount of energy in the particles of an object.
What is temperature?
This cannot be confused with weight, which is dependent on gravity. This does not change no matter the location!
What is Mass?
This is the type of energy that comes from food.
What is chemical energy?
This part of the wave determines the amount of energy it carries. (The taller this point is the more energy.)
What is the amplitude?
This part of a plant cell is responsible for carrying out photosynthesis.
What is the chloroplast?
This type of heat transfer occurs when 2 objects are in direct contact.
What is conduction?
From the waves unit:
This type of signal is universally considered more reliable because the 2 signal possibilities can easily be corrected when the transmission is interrupted.
What is a digital signal?
