4th Energy FK2
Kenetic & Potenial Energy
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Energy | The ability to do work (What makes things happen) |
| Potential Energy | The energy that something has because of where it is located: gravitational and chemical |
| Kinetic Energy | The energy that moving objects have: mechanical, thermal, electric, light, and sound. |
| Fossil Fuels | Include coal, oil, and natural gas; they formed from the remains of dead plants and animals. |
| Heat | Energy that moves from hot objects t cooler objects or (the transfer of thermal energy from one piece of matter to another. |
| Pitch | How high or low a sound is |
| Reflect | To bounce off objects. |
| Uses of Fossil Fuel | Gasoline is used to run our car, buses and other vehicles t Coal and gas are used to burn to heat our homes Coal is burned to produce energy to run our electric power plants Fossil fuels are used to make chemical energy and produce other energy |
| Echo | a repetition of sound produced by the reflection of sound waves from a wall, mountain, or other obstructing surface. |
| Chemical Energy | A form of potential energy that holds a particle of matter together. Digesting food is chemical energy. |
| Mechanical Energy | A form of kinetic energy that is energy moving things |
| Electric Energy | A form of kinetic energy in which an electric current flows from one place to another |
| Light Energy | A form of kinetic energy that is energy that travels in straight lines called rays that fan outward from the source of the light. The sun is the Earth's source of light energy |
| Heat Energy | A form of kinetic energy that moves from hot objects to cooler objects or (the transfer of thermal energy from one piece of matter to another |
| Thermal Energy | A form of kinetic that is a flow of energy, or a means of energy that is moving from one system or state to another. As the energy moves from one state to another, a difference in temperature will occur. |
| Gravitational Energy | A form of potential energy that is the energy stored in an object as the result of its vertical position or height. |
| Sound Energy | A form of kinetic energy which is energy produced by sound vibrations or waves. |
