This is stored energy.
What is Potential Energy?
These are the three states of matter.
What are solid, liquid, and gas?
This is the direction that heat flows.
What is from Hot to Cold?
This is the object we used to demonstrate waves in class.
What is a slinky?
When light bounces back.
What is Reflection?
This is energy in Motion.
What is Kinetic Energy?
The state that has the fastest moving particles [1] and the state with the slowest[2].
What is a Gas (fastest) [1] and Solid (slowest) [2]?
This is when heat is transferred from one object to another by direct contact.
What is Conduction?
They are the waves that travel the fastest through solids [1] & the other travels fastest through gases (& a vacuum)[2].
What is a sound wave (solid) [1] & a light wave (gas) [2]?
When light slows down and bends as it moves from one medium to another.
What is Refraction?
The type of energy transformation when a battery is charged from a plug in the wall.
What is electrical to chemical?
The process that changes a Liquid into a Gas.
What is Evaporation (Vaporization)?
This is how soup cools down when you put it in the refrigerator.
What is heat is moves from the soup and goes to the refrigerator because heat moves from HOT to COLD?
As Wavelength Increases (gets longer), the Energy and Frequency do this.
What is Decrease? (Energy is lowered & Frequency is lowered)
This color of light contains all the colors of the rainbow.
What is white light?
Where on a roller coaster you would find the HIGHEST kinetic energy. (FYI: All the hills are the same height)
What is the bottom of the hill/drop?
Heat is ____________ when a Liquid turns into a Solid.
What is Removed?
This type of heat transfer occurs at a campfire & heat moves in this direction.
What is Radiation from the Campfire to our Bodies?
If there were an explosion in the distance, this is the order in which its sound & light waves would reach you.
What is Light waves 1st & Sound waves 2nd (Vibration through Solid, then Noise through the Air)?
When this happens, a green object may appear black if you shine a red light on it.
What is Absorption?
This is how a flashlight works from when it is turned OFF to when it has been ON for a LONG time. (HINT: There are 4 total energy types)
What is Chemical to Electrical to Radiant to Thermal energy?
Matter changing from a gaseous state to a solid state requires these 2 processes.
What is Condensation and Freezing?
This occurs below the Earth's Lithosphere due to differences in density in the Mantle.
What is Convection?
This is the name for waves needing a medium to pass through in order to be transferred.
What are Mechanical Waves?
This one word means that a medium lets light all the way through it [1] & this one means that it does not [2].
What are transparent [1] & opaque [2]?
