WORK POWER ENERGY!
100
This is the energy an object has due to its motion
What is Kinetic Energy
100
A ball rolling down a hill with the velocity of 5m/s is an example of this type of energy.
What is kinetic energy
100
A change from one form of energy to another is called this.
What is an energy transformation
100
A large truck and a small truck are traveling at the same speed. The truck has more kinetic energy because this is larger.
What is mass
100
This is the ability to do work or cause change
What is energy
200
This is the potential energy stored in the nucleus of an atom
What is Nuclear Energy
200
The sun, a lightbulb, and an x-ray are all examples of this type of energy.
What is Electromagnetic Energy
200
This is the type of energy transformation that occurs on a roller coaster
What is potential energy (gravitational potential energy) to kinetic energy
200
These are the two factors that Gravitational Potential Energy depends on
What are height and weight
200
Moving water can be used to produce electricity because energy can be transformed into this.
What is Power
300
This is the total potential and kinetic energy of the particles in an object
What is thermal energy
300
When you are at the top of a roller coaster, you have this type of energy.
What is gravitational potential energy
300
This is the energy transformation that takes place when natural gas is used to heat water
What is Chemical energy into thermal energy
300
A rock poised for a fall is an example of this type of energy.
What is potential energy
300
Energy is measured in this unit
What is Joules
400
This is the energy of light and other forms of radiation
