The energy that is associated with the motion of the particles in a substance.
What is Thermal (Heat) energy?
100
Energy transformation that occurs when the sun is shining and is warming a metal bench.
What is Radiant (Solar) to Thermal?
100
The transfer of thermal energy through direct contact. The transfer of energy as heat occurs between particles as they collide within a substance or between two objects in contact.
What is Conduction?
100
An electric current flowing through a wire wrapped around an iron core.
What is a magnet?
100
A property that enables something to do work.
What is energy?
200
Energy stored within the chemical bonds in matter
What is Chemical Energy?
200
Energy transformation that occurs when a lamp is plugged into the outlet and turns on.
What is Electrical to Radiant (Light)?
200
Poor conductors of heat
What are insulators?
200
Connects all parts of the electric circuits.
What is a conductor?
200
When a force is used to move an object
What is work?
300
The energy flowing in an electric circuit
What is electrical energy?
300
Fill in the Blanks:
When a stretched rubber band is released its _____ energy is transformed into _____ energy as the rubber band moves.
What is potential and kinetic?
300
The transfer of energy as heat by movement of the heated substance itself, as currents in fluids (liquids and gases).
What is Convection?
300
Changes the electrical energy into something else (a light bulb changes electrical energy into radiant energy)
What is a transformer?
300
A rigid bar or board that is free to move around a fixed point called a fulcrum.
What is a lever?
400
Energy due to the motion (kinetic) and position (potential) of an object.
What is mechanical energy?
400
Energy transformation that occurs when gasoline makes a car run.
What is Chemical to Mechanical (Kinetic)?
400
The transfer of energy through space without particles of matter colliding or moving to transfer the energy.
What is Radiation?
400
Can change mechanical motion into electrical energy. Produces an electric current when a coil of wire wrapped around an iron core is rotated near a magnet.
What is a generator?
400
A sloping surface (like a ramp) that reduces the amount of force required to move an object/load.
What is an inclined plane?
500
Energy which is transferred through electromagnetic waves such as visible light, ultraviolet light or X-rays
What is Radiant energy?
500
Energy transformation that occurs when cooking and eating a hamburger.
What is Thermal to Chemical?
500
The ocean is heated through ______.
What is Convection?
500
Applies a force, a push or pull, without actually touching an object.
What is a magnetic field?
500
A grooved wheel with a rope running along the groove.
