Energy and Speed
Describes how fast an object is moving.
What is speed?
Any push or pull.
What is a force?
The energy that comes from batteries or power plants.
What is electrical energy?
The flow of electric charge through a conductor?
What is an electric current.
A tiny bundle of light energy.
What is a photon?
The process that plant uses to make food by combining sunlight with carbon dioxide.
What is photosynthesis?
The part of land animals that produces oxygen?
What is the lungs?
The speed and direction of an object.
What is velocity?
The tendency of an object in motion to stay in motion or of an object at rest to stay at rest.
What is inertia?
The energy that comes from the Sun?
What is light energy?
A device that can open or close the path in the circuit like when you turn on or off the light from your house.
What is a switch?
The different forms of radiation.
What is the electromagnetic spectrum?
The part of the plant that moves food, water, nutrients throughout the plant.
What is the stem?
A hard skeleton on the outside of an insect.
What is an exoskeleton?
The change in velocity over time.
What is acceleration?
A noncontact force that acts over a distance and pulls all objects toward each other. Ex. When you jump, you fall back to the ground.
What is gravity?
A type of heat transfer that moves directly from the source of heat like when you’re cooking eggs. The heat moves directly from the stove to the pan to the eggs.
What is conduction?
A material that transfers heat or electricity easily.
What is a conductor?
The light that is used to form images inside the body.
What is an x-ray?
The part of the plant that takes up water and nutrients from the ground.
What is the roots?
Any coloring, shape, or pattern that allows an organism to blend in with its environment.
What is a camouflage?
Energy at rest.
What is potential energy?
Forces that makes one object touches another.
What is contact forces?
The type of heat transfer through a liquid or gas?
What is convection?
A material that stops or slows the flow of energy, such as electricity or heat.
What is an insulator?
The gamma rays is the highest in the electromagnetic spectrum. True or false?
What is true?
The part of the plant where reproduction happens.
What is a flower or a conifers?
The organ of animals that pumps blood throughout the body.
What is the heart?
Energy in motion.
What is kinetic energy?
What do you call the idea that Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only change form.
What is Law of Conservation of Energy?
A chemical energy is a type of potential energy. What is needed to change this potential energy to kinetic energy?
What is a chemical reaction?
This is formed when an electric current passes through an unbroken path of conductors.
What is a circuit?
The type of wave that light produces. It is made up of vibrating electric and magnetic fields. They travel together but they do not vibrate in the same direction.
What is a transverse wave?
A plant’s response to a stimulus by changing its pattern of growth.
What is a tropism?
Give an example of a mammal.
dogs, humans, dolphins, monkeys, tiger, zebra, narwhal, horse, etc.
