The total potential and kinetic energy of the particles in an object.
What is thermal energy?
100
In this single transformation a toaster transforms these two energies to toast your bread.
What is electrical energy to thermal energy
100
A material such as coal that forms over millions of years from the remains of ancient plants and animals.
What is a fossil fuel?
200
This is the rate at which energy is transferred.
What is power?
200
The energy of electric charges.
What is electrical energy?
200
Plants transform these energies to make food for themselves.
What is electromagnetic energy to chemical energy?
200
This is where fossil fuels energy originated.
What is the sun.
300
kinetic energy, energy that an object has due to its motion, can be affected by these two things.
What are mass and velocity?
300
This potential energy stored in the chemical bonds that hold chemical compounds together.
What is chemical energy?
300
This transforms mechanical energy to thermal energy and explains why no machine is 100 percent efficient.
What is friction?
300
This type of energy is found in fossil fuels.
What is chemical energy?
400
This form of potential energy is dependent on the height of an object.
What is gravitational potential energy?
400
This form of energy travel in waves.
What is electromagnetic energy?
400
The rule that energy cannot be created or destroyed.
What is law of conservation of energy?
400
The process of burning a fuel to produce thermal energy.
What is combustion?
500
The potential energy associated with objects that can be stretched or compressed.
What is elastic potential energy?
500
Two types of nuclear potential energy, stored in the nucleus of an atom. One form released when atoms are split apart, the other when atoms are fused together.
What is nuclear fission and nuclear fusion?
500
This transformation takes place when one juggles, pole vaults, even in a pendulum.
What is kinetic to potential energy transformation?
500
These transform mechanical energy to electrical energy.
