At the end of the Krusty Krab Pizza episode of Spongebob, why didn't the customer want the pizza?
What is because he was a big meanie and thought that Spongebob forgot his soda?
400
Energy that is in motion is also known as this major category of energy.
What is Kinetic Energy
400
Why is styrofoam considered a good insulator?
What is, because it slows the transfer of energy.
