Energize Your Life
This form of energy results from the movement of charged particles, like electrons, through a conductor.
What is electrical energy?
This law states: Energy cannot be destroyed or created, only transformed.
What is the law of conservation of energy?
This is a tool for measuring the acidity and alkalinity of a liquid substance.
What is a ph scale?
This is the step of the scientific method where you predict a possible answer to the problem or question.
What is creating a hypothesis?
The planet in between Mercury and Earth
What is Venus?
Breathing in and out from your lungs and swinging a baseball bat are examples of this king of energy. Hint: not the category of energy, but the type of energy.
What is mechanical energy?
This kind of energy is converted into thermal (heat) energy and radiant (light) energy when wood is burned to make fire.
What is chemical energy?
Precipitation (water, rain, or hail) containing high levels of pollutants from the atmosphere.
What is acid rain?
All the factors that an experimenter attempts to keep the same in an experiment.
What is a constant?
This gas makes up about 78% of Earth's atmosphere.
What is Nitrogen?
The energy stored in an object when a force deforms it, such as stretching, compressing, or twisting it.
What is elastic energy?
When you strum a guitar, the movement of your hand across the strings is kinetic energy, which is transformed into this kind of energy.
What is sound energy?
Human-made light in places that would naturally be dark. This glow can mess up the sleep and feed cycles of people and animals.
What is light pollution?
The step of the scientific method after conducting the experiment.
What is collecting and analyzing results?
The number of bones in the adult human body.
206
This is the energy stored in an object due to its height or position above the Earth's surface.
When a ball is dropped from a height, the gravitational potential energy is converted into this type of energy.
What is kinetic energy?
A haze or fog made heavier and darker by smoke and chemical fumes.
What is smog?
The group that serves as the standard of comparison in an experiment and does not receive the same treatment as the experimental group.
What is a control group?
This type of rock is formed from cooled and solidified magma or lava.
What is an igneous rock?
The energy stored within the bonds of atoms and molecules. It is a form of potential energy.
What is chemical energy?
When you charge your phone's battery, this is the energy transformation taking place.
What is electrical energy converted into chemical energy?
This agreement phased out chemicals called CFCs which were eating away at the Earth's ozone layer. Since this agreement was signed in 1987, the ozone layer has started to recover.
What is the Montreal Protocol?
After collecting and analyzing results, this step of the scientific method includes a statement that accepts or rejects the hypothesis, and makes recommendations for further study and possible improvements to the procedure.
What is a conclusion?
This famous scientist developed the theory of gravity.
Who is Isaac Newton?
