sound energy is the energy of _______________ in air, water, or other matter | vibrations |
thermal energy is due to randomly _______________ that make up matter | moving particles |
thermal energy flow is felt as_________ | heat |
The faster particles move, the ________ thermal energy is produced | more |
potential energy is energy that is ____________ in an object | stored |
When an object is in motion, its potential energy is _____________ as other forms of energy | released |
Potential energy is released as other forms such as ____________,___________________, or _______________ | sound, heat, or motion |
kinetic energy is the energy of | motion |
A moving swing or a hurricane both have_____________ energy | kinetic |
All moving things have ... | kinetic energy. |
The amount of kinetic energy depends on the _________ and __________ of the object. | speed and mass |
Gravitational, chemical, and elastic are all forms of ____________Energy | Potential |
A ____________ object has gravitational potential energy | raised |
The HIGHER or HEAVIER an object is, the more _________ _______________ __________ it has. | gravitational potential energy |
chemical is stored in the _____________ that hold particles together | connections |
The human body digests food and the chemical energy turns into other forms of energy used to ________,__________,and ______ | move, talk, and live |
a stretched rubber band or a compressed spring have ________ _________ _________ | elastic potential energy |
Elastic potential energy can change into ________ energy and _________ energy | sound/kinetic |
A Pendulum in a Clock: When a pendulum is at its highest position, it has the _________________. | greatest potential energy |
A Pendulum in a Clock: As the pendulum starts to swing down, the potential energy changes to __________ energy. | kinetic |
A Pendulum in a Clock: At its lowest position, the pendulum has the __________ kinetic energy. | greatest |
A Pendulum in a Clock: As the pendulum swings back up, the kinetic energy decreases and the potential energy___________. | increases |
Conduction is the transfer of | heat that occurs when one thing touches another. |
Thermal energy flows from something | warm to something cool. |
Heat is the transfer of ______________ between matter of different temperatures. | thermal energy |
A heat source is anything that gives off | energy that particles of matter can take in. |
Convection is the transfer of | thermal energy as matter moves (as a gas or a liquid moves from place to place). |
In convection, particles in warm air or liquid ______________________, while cooler air enters in to take the place of the warmer upward air or liquid | move faster and travel upward |
Radiation or radiant energy is energy that is sent out in | waves. |
Radiant energy (radiation) is converted to thermal energy when it touches the matter of a | person's body. |
Radiation can travel through | matter and through empty space. |
Fossil Fuels come from the remains of | organisms that lived millions of years ago |
Coal, natural gas, and oil are all fossil fuels. When burned, fossil fuels produce | useful heat. |
Objects that are black absorb all the colors of visible light. When the light is absorbed, it becomes | a form of heat. |
