Question | Answer |
Energy | ability to do work or cause change |
Thermal energy | Energy that comes from heat. It is produced by the Sun and is needed for life on Earth. |
flow | the transfer of energy |
refraction | Bending of light. When light hits and travels through a different medium, the light is bent. |
Light spectrum | the range of electromagnetic wavelengths that our eyes can see (ROYGBIV) |
Mechanical energy | the energy an object has due to its position or motion. "Movement" and can be used for things such as turning a wheel, peddling a bike, raising a flag, etc. |
Electrical circuit | the path an electric current takes |
Electrical current | The continuous flow of electricity through a conductor |
Lens | A piece of glass or other transparent material that lets light pass through it |
Magnify | To make something appear larger than it is with a lens or microscope |
Light energy | Energy that people can see. Can be produced by the Sun, fire, batteries or the result of a complete electrical circuit |
Electromagnetism | Magnetism produced by an electric current |
Mirror | A surface that reflects light. |
Kaleidoscope | A tube-shaped toy that is rotated to produce designs with reflected light using bits of colored glass at one end of the tube. |
Sound energy | A form of energy where vibrations travel through solids, liquids and gases and are detected by the organs of hearing. |
Conductor | A material through which electricity flows |
Laser | A device that produces an intense beam of light. |
Telescope | An instrument for viewing distant objects by refracting light rays through a lens |
Insulator | Material that slows down or stops electric current or heat from flowing |
Reflection | Light bouncing off of an object. When light hits a surface and bounces back. |
Illuminate | To brighten with light |
Electrical energy | Can be achieved through the creation of a complete circuit. This can be seen when anything is plugged into an electric circuit. We depend on this type of energy to power lights, appliances, and some cars. |
