Vocabulary
100
This is energy an object has because it's moving.
What is kinetic energy?
100
These don't transfer matter to one place to another.
What is a water wave?
100
Wood contains chemical energy which is stored in the _____ of the wood.
What is chemical bonds?
100
This is the transfer of thermal energy by collisions between particles in matter.
What is conduction?
100
This changes when an increase in the volume of a substance because the temperature increases.
What is density?
200
This is has the ability to cause change.
What is potential energy?
200
This is a disturbance that transfers energy without transferring matter.
What is a wave?
200
The motion of a wheel against the brakes is an example of kinetic energy converting to this type of energy.
What is thermal energy?
200
This is the transfer of thermal energy by movement of matter from place to place.
What is convection?
200
These are the units that energy is measured by.
What are joules?
300
This is the cause of all change.
What is energy?
300
These waves can transfer energy through matter or empty space.
What are electromagnetic waves?
300
This moves fromm an object at a higher temperature to an object at a lower temperature
What is heat?
300
This is the circular motion that results in a fluid heated from below.
What are convection currents?
300
This is the energy that moves from one place to another because a difference in temperature
What is thermal energy?
400
These are the three types of potential energy.
What is chemical, elastic, and gravitational potential energy?
400
These are caused by back-and-forth movement, or vibration, of an object.
What are sound waves?
400
A ball thrown up in the air has kinetic energy until it stops a second in mid-air, which is this type of energy.
What is potential energy?
400
This is the transfer of thermal energy to be transferred between matter and empty space.
What is radiation?
400
This is a material that can be burned to release energy.
What is fuel?
500
The process of all the energy changes you get from throwing a ball in the air.
What is potential to kinetic, to gravitational potential, to kinetic, to potential?
500
These are the waves that we use to cook food.
What are microwaves?
500
These materials are good at transferring heat energy quickly.
What are conductors?
500
This is the material made of particles that easily can change their location.
What is fluid?
