Resource that once is used up, cannot be replaced within a reasonable amount of time.
What is nonrenewable resource?
200
The energy of motion.
What is kinetic energy?
200
Light energy from the sun can be turned into electricity.
What is solar energy?
200
Light energy.
What kind of energy does the sun emit?

What is chemical energy?
400
Trnasfer of thermal energy through the movement of a gas or a liquid.
What is convection?
400
One is how fast it is moving and the other is its mass.
What are the two factors that determine how much kinetic energy can object has?
400
