| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What does the Law of Conservation of Energy state? | The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy within an isolated system remains constant; it cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another or transferred between objects. |
| What is an “Energy Transformation”? | Energy transformation is the process of changing energy from one form to another, as energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted. |
| Falling rocks from the top of a mountain. | Mechanical. |
| What happens to thermal energy when two objects of different temperatures are in contact? | Thermal energy passes from the warmer object to the cooler object. |
| What is the direct transfer of heat from one substance to another that is touching called? | Conduction. |
| Why does a metal spoon in hot soup become hot? | Conduction. |

| What is a material that reduces the transfer of heat called? | An insulator. |
| Why do, you feel warm walking on sand? | Conduction. |
| How is heat transferred through liquids and gases? | Convection currents. |
| How does heat travel from the Sun to the Earth? | Radiation. |
