100

This is what a wave with more energy has.

What is high amplitude?

100

This is what we call materials that stop heat and/or electricity from passing.

What are insulators?

100

This is a push or a pull between positive and/or negative charges.

What is electric force?

100

This is what happens when energy waves are taken in by a material.

What is absorption?

or

What is absorbed?

100

This object can keep drinks hot or cold.

What is an insulated mug/thermos?

200

What happens when a wave bounces back?

What is reflection?

200

This is the term for a device (often found in a computer) that absorbs heat.

What is a heat sink?

200

Distance from a magnet and this other factor can affect the strength of the magnetic force.

What is magnetic field size?

200

This is what happens to waves that are directed at transparent materials.

What is pass through?

200

This is used to convert energy from the sun into usable electricity.

What is a solar panel?

300

This is what amplitude measures.

What is the energy of a wave?

300

This is the term for thermal energy transferred through contact with solid materials.

What is conduction?

300

This is the term for the total energy of moving particles.

What is thermal energy?

300
This is what a convex lense does to a light wave.

What is focus?

300

A blanket used to trap body heat is an example of this.

What is an insulator?

400

Materials with this characteristic allow most light waves to pass through.

What is transparent?

400

This is the term for thermal energy transferred through fluids as warmer particles rise and cooler particles fall.

What is convection?

400

This is the term for the characteristic of materials that cause waves to bounce.

What is reflection?

400

This is the type of surface that is most likey to reflect light waves.

What is smooth and shiny?

400

The acoustic foam panels in a recording studio do this to sound waves to minimize unwanted noise.

What is absorb?

500

This is what happens when sound waves hit some materials, like thick curtains.

What is absorbed?

500

This is the term for thermal energy transferred as invisible waves.

What is radiation?

500

This is an electric force that is created when electrons move from one object to another.

What is static electricity?
500

This is the term for waves that spread out after passing through a small opening.

What is diffraction?

500

Breathable fabrics are designed to wick body heat away by transferring this away from the body.
