Energy related to motion
kinetic energy
Energy moves from one place to another. Is this a transfer or transform
transfer
highest point on a wave called
crest
A wave that moves matter side to side in the same direction as the wave.
longitudinal

Energy related to an object's height
gravitational potential energy
What type of energy transformation does a vacuum cleaner make?
electrical to mechanical to sound
height of a wave called

Energy related to an objects shape
elastic potential energy
How does a battery fan transform energy?
chemical → electrical → mechanical.
the distance between 2 crest or 2 trough is called
wavelength
