Energy
The ability to cause change.
What is energy?
When an instrument is played, it can cause particles to vibrate.
What is sound energy?
This occurs when the temperature of a substance increases.
What is the particles move faster?
The unit for this scale is K.
What is the Kelvin scale?
The ball is under the car near the right tire.
What is position?
The energy of motion
What is kinetic energy?
The sun's radiant energy
What is nuclear energy?
In this substance, the particles do not move around much-they vibrate in move in place.
What is a solid?
The unit for this scale is C.
What is the Celsius scale?
A plane travels 800 km/h heading northwest.
The stored energy that an object has due to it position, condition, or chemical composition.
What is potential energy?
Waves transmitted in space that form invisible light
What is electromagnetic energy?
In this substance, the particles change position more rapidly-sliding past one another.
What is a liquid?
The unit for this scale is F.
What is the Fahrenheit scale?
A car travels 40 km/h
What is speed?
The amount of energy an object possess because of its mass and height from the ground.
What is gravitational potential energy?
Stored in chemical bonds, such as energy stored in foods
What is chemical energy?
In this substance, the particles move around more freely.
What is a gas?
This measures the average kinetic energy of the particles that make up a substance.
What is temperature?
He walked to the front of the cafeteria.
What is motion?
The sum of an object's kinetic and mechanical potential energy
What is mechanical energy?
The energy an object has due to the motion of its particles.
What is thermal energy?
The total amount of kinetic energy present in a substance.
What is thermal energy?
The difference between the temperature at which ice melts and water boils: 0 C, 32 C, 100 C, or 273 C.
What is 100 C?
A dolphin swimming underwater goes 100 meters in 40 secs. What is its average speed?
What is 2.5 meters/sec?
