What is potential energy
What is converts chemical energy into mechanical energy
Materials that allow electrons to easily jump from atom to atom are called these
What are conductors
A circuit needs one of these in order to work properly
What is a power source
What is mechanical energy
Chemical energy is the energy stored in the chemical bonds between these
What are atoms
