  1. Energy released when atoms split or

are joined together.

Nuclear Energy

100

When atoms join together, we refer to this specifically as what?

Fusion (nuclear energy)

100

what is the formula to calculate work?

Force x Distance = Work
100

the sum of the Potential Energy and the Kinetic Energy.

Total Mechanical Energy

200

  1. Energy made from the flow of current 

through a conductor.

Electric Energy

200

  1. Energy due to its high position as opposed to its low position.

Gravitational Potential Energy

200

energy that is stored. The amount of this energy depends on the object's position.

Potential Energy

1. Kinetic

2. Potential

300

  1. Energy stored when an object is stretched 

or compressed.

Elastic Energy
300

  1. Energy carried by light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation.

Radiant Energy

300

is energy of motion.

Kinetic Energy
300

Increase the amount of energy present by adding _______ to the sled.

Mass

  1. Energy transferred when atoms get excited,

give off heat, and change temperature.

Thermal or Heat Energy

400

a push or pull

force

400

Energy CANNOT be created or destroyed. (True or False)

True
