Question
Answer
Energy stored in particles of matter for later use.   Chemical energy  
🗑
Used to convert solar energy to electrical energy.   Solar cells  
🗑
Energy due to the motion and position of an object.   Mechanical energy  
🗑
Fast moving cars have more of this type of energy than a slow moving car.   Kinetic energy  
🗑
The transfer of energy that takes places when a book is falling from a shelf.   Potential to kinetic  
🗑
The most unwanted form of energy.   Heat energy.  
🗑
A push or pull on an object.   Force  
🗑
An electric current flowing through a wire wrapped around an iron core forms this.   An electromagnet  
🗑
When animals use chemical energy in food to move. The chemical energy is transferred into this form of energy.   Mechanical kinetic energy  
🗑
This surrounds a magnet.   Magnetic field  
🗑
This is where the manipulated variable is ALWAYS graphed on.   X-axis  
🗑
Unlike poles do this.   Attract  
🗑
The flow of electrons.   Electricity  
🗑
Involves direct contact   Conduction  
🗑
Electrical energy can be transformed into light energy in an electric circuit if a ____ is added to it.   Light bulb  
🗑
A huge wheel that rotate when pushed by water, wind, or steam.   Turbine  
🗑
A flat slanted surface.   Inclined plane  
🗑
Another name for a double pulley system.   Block and Tackle  
🗑
Consists of two circular objects and a shaft.   Wheel and axle  
🗑
Two types of energy   Kinetic and potential  
🗑
Two or more simple machines   Compound/complex machine  
🗑
The three ways heat can be transferred.   Conduction, convection, and radiation.  
🗑
The pulley system that is the most effective.   Block and tackle( double pulley system) going up  
🗑
A coil of wire spinning around a magnet or vice versa can form this.   An electric current  
🗑
Energy that is flowing in an electric circuit.   Electrical energy  
🗑
Batteries,food, and wood all contain this form of energy.   Chemical energy  
🗑
The transfer of thermal energy.   Heat energy  
🗑
The transfer of energy through space.   Radiation  
🗑
The unit that force is measured in.   Newtons  
🗑
A grooved wheel   Pulley  
🗑
The fixed point on a lever.   Fulcrum  
🗑
A device that reduces the amount of forc required to do work and can change the direction of that force.   Simple machine  
🗑
A pulley that is attached to a structure.   Fixed pulley  
🗑
Converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.   Generator  
🗑
Like poles do this.   Repel  
🗑
Wire is known as the ____ in an electric circuit.   Conductor  
🗑
The transfer of energy through liquids(fluids) & gases.   Convection  
🗑
Poor conductors are called this.   Insulators  
🗑
Converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.   Motor  
🗑
Door knobs, steering wheels, screwdrivers, and gears are examples of this.   Wheel and axle  
🗑
This type of slope is the most practical for an inclined plane.   Gentle slope  
🗑
The TYPE of energy an object has due to its motion.   Kinetic  
🗑
Energy can't be created or destroyed, but can change from one form to another.   Law of Conservation of Energy  
🗑
A stretched rubberband has this.   Elastic potential energy  
🗑
As heat is added to an object, the temperature does this.   Increase/rises  
🗑
Water that is behind a dam has this form of energy.   Mechanical potential energy  
🗑
Energy from the sun.   Solar energy  
🗑
An effective inclined plane will make you travel a _____ distance.   Longer  
🗑
The object that you are trying to move is called this.   Load  
🗑
Used to measure mass   Triple beam balance  
🗑
The ability to cause change.   Work  
🗑
The instrument used to measure force.   Spring scale  
🗑
A rigid bar that moves around a fixed point.   Lever  
🗑
The biggest mechanical advantage of a lever would be having the load close to the fulcrum and the effort ________ ________ from the fulcrum.   Far away  
🗑
When you apply a force on an object over a distance and the object moved in response to the force.   Work  
🗑
In an electromagnet, the magnetism will be lost if the _________ stop flowing.   Electric current  
🗑
The unit for measure work and energy.   Joule  
🗑
Force from the stretching or compressing of an object.   Elastic  
🗑
This is evidence that energy has been used.   Movement  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
