What is electricity
the tendency of all objects to resist any change in motion.
What is inertia?
The energy of motion
What is kinetic energy?
a disturbance that carries energy from one location to another location.
What is a wave?
the energy an object has due to its motion or due to its position.
What is Mechanical Energy?
