What is energy?
100
This is an example of radiant energy being changed to chemical energy. (Hint: Plants do this)
What is photosynthesis?
200
Energy carried through an electrical current.
What is electrical energy?
200
The energy running through a power cord to a computer is __________ energy.
What is electrical?
200
As thermal energy increases, so does this.
What is temperature?
200
This states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only change form.
What is the law of conservation of energy?
200
This is an example of electrical energy being changed to radiant energy.
What is a lamp/computer/TV/flashlight/microwave?
300
The energy associated with heat; transferred through radiation, conduction, and convection.
What is thermal energy?
300
_________ energy is used by plants that have to do photosynthesis to create food.
What is radiant energy?
300
This occurs when heat is transferred through waves of energy.
What is radiation?
300
This is a push or pull with enough force to move an object.
What is work?
300
These energy transfers make it possible to power a car with gas.
What is nuclear,thermal,radiant,chemical,kinetic energy?
400
The energy associated with light.
What is radiant energy?
400
Battery acid, the source of __________ energy for a car, contains chemical energy.
What is electrical/kinetic/mechanical energy?
400
This occurs when energy is transferred through direct contact.
What is conduction?
400
This type of energy is stored in an object because of its position.
What is potential energy?
400
What does the mechanical energy of two stones change to, when they are rapidly struck?
Heat(Thermal), Light(Radiant), Sound
500
The energy that results from the breaking apart of atoms (fission) or forcing nuclei together (fusion).
What is nuclear energy?
500
______ energy is found within the Sun.
What is nuclear?
500
This occurs when heat is transferred through a gas or a liquid.
What is convection?
500
This is the energy an object has if it has potential and kinetic energy combined.
What is mechanical energy?
500
Consider the pendulum below.
At what point does the entire potential energy of the ball is converted into kinetic energy? A, B or C
What is point B?
