Thermal Energy/Sources Study Guide
This is the ability to do work | Energy |
Stored energy | Potential |
Thermal | Heat |
Molecules in hot items move | Fast |
Molecules in cold items move | Slow |
kinetic measurement of thermal energy | Temperature /degrees |
32 degrees is this scale for freezing | fahrenheit |
100 degrees is this scale for boiling | Celsius |
This prevents the transfer of heat energy | Insulator |
Transfer of thermal energy object to object | Conduction |
Transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves | Radiation |
Convection | Energy transferred through gases/liquids |
Decaying plants/animals, heat and pressure, and oh say several 100 million years , and you get ... | Fossil Fuels |
This will convert kinetic energy from the wind into electrical power | Turbine |
This fossil fuel is mostly carbon formed into sedimentary rock | Coal |
This is caused by huge convection currents in the Earth's atmosphere | Wind |
Warm air rises because it is less______________than cold air | Dense |
Heat from laying in the sun at the beach is | Radiation |
Plants and animal waste used to produce energy | Biomass |
Sea and land breezes are examples of | Convection |
Using an electric blanket is an example of | Conduction |
Radiation is the transfer of energy by | Electromagnetic waves |
A ball rolling is an example of this energy | kinetic |
The metric system is based on the number | Ten and its multiples |
Using Celsius, water boils at | 100 degrees |
Name two insulators | plastic, wood |
Name two renewable energy sources | hydro power, solar |
Name two non-renewable energy sources | natural gas , oil |
These energy sources cause pollution | Non-renewable |
These energy sources are not always reliable | Renewable |
STEM is | AWESOME!!!! |
Ms. P's dogs are named | Patriot and Scout |
Renewable energy sources are also called | Green energy |
Energy is | the ability to do work |
True or false -Propane is a renewable energy source | False (non-renewable) |
True or false -Water freezes at 0 degrees celcius | True |
True or false -Hydro power is wind power | False (water power) |
burning your hand on a hot pot is a good if painful example of | Conduction |
This is an example of convection, geothermal energy, and cool to see | Geyser |
A hot air corn popper is a good example of this at work | Convection |
