Wild Card
100
Saving something so that it doesn't get used up.
Conservation
100
This is stored energy that can be released by a chemical reaction.
Chemical energy
100
Eric added hot water to cold water. The cold water heated up. He is using this process of heating.
Convection
100
A roller coaster at the top of a hill has a lot of this type of energy.
Potential
100
Some pots have a layer of copper on the bottom because copper is a good type of this.
conductor of heat
200
Wind, water, and sunlight are examples of this type of resource.
Renewable Resources
200
This is the ability to cause change in matter.
Energy
200
This is the transfer of thermal energy by the movement of gas or liquid.
convection
200
This is the energy an object has because of its condition or position.
potential energy
200
Reducing the amound of this is one reason to conserve energy.
pollution
300
A calculator uses sunlight for energy, meaning it uses this type of renewable energy.
solar power/energy
300
A flashlight uses this type of energy to produce light energy.
Electric Energy
300
The temperature of the air does this when particles in the air move more quickly.
rises
300
This is the energy an object has when it is moving.
kinetic energy
300
The material used for an oven mitt is an example of this.
insulator
400
Driving a hybrid car, using wind energy, and using less water are all examples of this.
Conservation
400
This is the combination of all the potential and kinetic energy an object has.
mechanical energy
400
This is the direct transfer of energy by touching objects.
Condution
400
A man parachuting from a plane will have more of this type of energy.
kinetic energy
400
Insulators do this to the transfer of thermal energy.
Slow down
500
Anything that harms the environment, or damages it, by making it dirty.
Pollution
500
A movie projector produces these types of energy.
light and sound energy.
500
This is the movement of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves.
radiation
500
An arrow has more and more of this energy the farther back an archer pulls his bow.
Potential energy
500
The particles in the air would move more quickly during this time of year.
