100

This is energy that is shown when an object moves from one position to another

What is Motion Energy?

Know your kinetic energy types and characteristics

100

This is defined as stored energy within an object. 

What is potential energy?

100

This is the total kinetic energy of ALL moving particles in a substance.

What is thermal energy?

100

In every energy transformation, a small amount of energy is given off as this, which is caused by friction and drag.

What is heat? 

100

This is a representation of the type of energy transformation and the direction that the transformation took place. 

What is an energy chain diagram?

200

DOUBLE

This is what separates translational motion from vibrational or rotational motion.

What is the object ending in a different position than it started in?

Remember, rotational and vibrational motion is when the object returns to the position it started at. They exemplify the movement action that they are named after (vibrating and rotating in place). 

200

This is the ability to do work. This also makes matter move and changes it. 

What is energy?

200

This shows the transfer of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object

What is heat?

Remember, heat is NOT ENERGY. It is an indicator that an energy transfer has taken place. 

200

This is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a substance 1°C.

What is heat capacity? 

200

This energy can be transferred, but it CANNOT be stored. 

What is kinetic energy?

Remember, potential energy can be stored and cannot be transferred

300

This is the object we use to determine IF an object has kinetic energy

What is a reference point?

Remember, this can be ANYTHING and a reference point is RELATIVE!

300

This is the term for energy an object has because of its position in Earth’s gravitational force field. This is any object that is raised over the Earth’s Surface.

What is gravitational potential energy?

Remember, this is any object that is raised over the Earth’s Surface. Know your different types of potential energy. 

300

This law states that “heat flows from warmer objects or regions to colder objects or regions, and the flow continues until the two objects reach the same temperature.” The energy lost and gained will be equal which will make the temperature of the objects equal.

What is the Law of Thermal Equilibrium?

300

Double

This is the transfer of heat in fluids by circulation.

What is convection?

Remember, fluids are not only liquids, but compressible gasses as well. 

300

The exchange of heat takes place until the objects reach this two-word common ground. 

What is thermal equilibrium? 

400

This law states "we cannot create energy or destroy it". 

What is the Law of Conservation of Energy?


400

Which form of nuclear energy pertains to the splitting of atoms?

What is fission?

Remember, fusion is when we are making two atoms into one (fusing them). 

400

If temperature increases, this happens to thermal energy.

What is increase?

Remember, heat IS NOT ENERGY but a temperature increase means we have an energy increase. 

400

This is when fluid particles sink and rise.

What is circulation? 

400

TRIPLE

True or False. The three heat transfer processes can work together in any capacity.

What is the TRUTH! Conduction (a transfer of heat within an object or between two objects that are touching with different temperatures), Convection, and Radiation (a transfer of heat by the emission and absorption of electromagnetic waves) can work together. 

500

The universe is made up of two fundamental quantities. List them

What are matter and energy? 

500

We covered two natural disasters with nuclear potential energy. What present day country was Chernobyl located in? For another 500 points, what government was in charge? 

What is present-day Ukraine?

What is the Russian/Soviet Union Gov't.

Remember, Chernobyl happened in 1984 and Fukashima happened in 2011 in Fukashima, Japan. 

500

Heat flows in this direction.

What is all directions?

500

This state of matter allows heat to be transferred the fastest.

What are solids?

Know why this happens

500

Double

Write the velocity formula on a provided sticky note. 

V= Square root 2KE/M

Mass formula is m=2KE/v^2 (squared)

Kinetic energy= 1/2 mass times velocity times velocity

Potential Energy is mass times 9.8 times height
