100
This is the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy.
What is thermal energy
100
is replaced as fast as or faster than it is used
What is renewable energy resource
100
the transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves
What is radiation
100
sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in a system
What is mechanical energy
100
does not exchange matter or energy with the environment
What is closed system
200
This is the term for the distance between similar points on a wave.
What is wavelength
200
states that energy cannot be created or destroyed
What is law of conservation of energy
200
the movement of thermal energy from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature
What is heat
200
measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a material
What is temperature
200
disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another without transferring matter
What is wave
300
This is stored energy released from the nucleus of an atom.
What is nuclear energy
300
is available in limited quantities––or is used faster than it can be replaced in nature
What is nonrenewable energy resource
300
the transfer of thermal energy by the movement of particles from one part of a material to another
What is convection
300
carried by sound waves
What is sound energy
300
stored energy due to the interaction between objects or particles
What is potential energy
400
This type of energy is related to the mass and the speed of an object.
What is kinetic energy
400
occurs when a force makes an object move in the direction of the force while the force is acting on it
What is work
400
the transfer of thermal energy due to collisions between particles of matter
What is conduction
400
exchanges matter or energy with the environment
What is open system
400
to change from a solid state to a gas state without passing through the liquid state
What is sublime
500
This type of energy is based on mass and height
What is gravitational potential energy
500
occurs when one form of energy is converted to another
What is energy transformation
500
the change of state from a liquid to a gas
What is vaporization
500
stored in and released from the bonds between atoms
What is chemical energy
500
state in which temperatures of materials that are in contact are the same
What is equilibrium
