If an object is raised higher in the air, what has increased?
The object's potential energy.
Electrical energy is caused by moving _____.
Currents
What can you use to measure an objects thermal energy?
A thermometer
Sound is caused by_____.
vibration
Potential Energy is _____________.
stored energy of an object based on its location.
A circuit is closed. What does this mean?
There is a CONSTANT FLOW and energy will move through it.
What does translucent mean?
The light will travel through the material somewhat, but the image will be blurred or bent.
The sun causing heat is an example of this type of energy.
Thermal.
Can you feel the energy created by sound?
Yes, in the form of vibration
What is Kinetic Energy?
Kinetic energy is the energy something has by being in motion.
Is this circuit complete? Why or why not? A wire is connected from a battery to a light bulb.
No the circuit is not complete because it does not have a wire back to a battery.
What does refract mean?
The light bends.
As the movement of particles in an object increases, what will happen to the object.
The object's temperature/thermal energy/heat will increase.
Can sound travel through objects?
Yes, if the sound makes the object vibrate
An object with mechanical energy is experiencing friction. What will happen to the object.
The object will come to a stop (and could heat up).
What is a series circuit?
Multiple lights are on the same path.
When an object is opaque what happens?
Light will not travel through it.
Thermal Energy is also called this...
Heat Energy.
How does sound travel?
Sound travels in WAVES.
