| Term | Definition | Term | Definition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Energy | The ability to do work or cause change | Potential Energy | Energy that is stored and ready to be used |
| work | When a force is used to move an object over a distance or cause change. | Kinetic Energy | Energy that is working or in motion |
| force | A push or a pull | Law of Conservation of Energy | Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be changed (transformed, converted) to a different form or transferred from one object or another. |
| chemical energy | energy that is stored in the particles of matter | Conserve | To save. In respect to energy, it means that energy is never created or destroyed, but always stays the same amount, even when it is transferred or transformed. |
| mechanical energy | Energy of motion or moving parts bicycle, wind turbine, ocean waves, wind, arms and legs | Transfer | To move something from one place or one object to another - the same type of energy can passed along from one object to another. |
| radiant energy | Energy that travels on invisible waves (sunlight (solar energy), heat from fire, x-rays, microwave) etc. | Transform or Convert | Other words that mean the same thing as the word CHANGE. |
| thermal energy | The energy that all matter has because its particles (atoms, molecules) are in motion. | Heat | The transfer or flow of thermal energy from a warmer object to a cooler object. |
| electrical energy | The energy that comes from moving electrons can be static or current. |
