5.P.3.2
5.P.3.2 Conductors & Insulators
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The ability to cause changes in matter. | Energy |
| Energy can't be created or destroyed. It can be changed from one form of matter to another. | Law of Conservation of Energy |
| Energy of motion. | Kinetic energy |
| The energy an object has because of where it is or because of its condition. | Potential energy |
| The energy that runs computers, television, radios, etc. It is produced by the movement of electrons. | Electric energy |
| Kinds of matter that carry electrons more easily than others. | Conductor |
| A material that doesn't carry electrons more easily such as rubber, plastic, or glass. | Insulator |
| Any path along which electrons can flow. | Electric circuit |
| When an object is magnetic while an electric current is running through it. | Electromagnet |
| When colors bounce off a surface. | Reflection |
| When a change in speed causes light rays to bend (when light travels through a window it slows down.) | Refraction |
| The loudness of a sound. | Volume |
| The direct transfer of heat between objects that touch. | Conduction |
| Heat transfer as a result of the mixing of a liquid or a gas. | Convection |
| The transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves. | Radiation |
