Energy exploring science

        Help!  

Question
Answer
show The kind of energy stored in chemicals. Food, fuels and cells (batteries) all contain chemical energy.  
🗑
show A fossil fuel made from the remains of plants.  
🗑
show The kind of energy carried by electricity.  
🗑
show A dead organism that has been trapped in mud and whose body has not completely rotted away.  
🗑
fossil fuels   show
🗑
show Anything that stores energy that can be converted into heat energy – includes fossil fuels and nuclear fuel.  
🗑
generate   show
🗑
show The hotter something is, the more heat energy it has.  
🗑
kinetic energy   show
🗑
show The idea that energy can never be created or destroyed, only changed from one form into another.  
🗑
light energy   show
🗑
show Fossil fuel formed from the remains of dead plants and animals that lived in the sea.  
🗑
show Energy stored inside the particles that things are made out of.  
🗑
show Fossil fuel formed from the remains of dead plants and animals that lived in the sea.  
🗑
sound energy   show
🗑
show A fuel used in nuclear power stations.  
🗑
non-renewable energy resource   show
🗑
alternative energy resources   show
🗑
biomass   show
🗑
show Large coil of wire with a magnet inside. When the magnet is turned, electricity is produced in the coil of wire.  
🗑
geothermal power   show
🗑
show Making electricity by letting falling water (usually from a reservoir) turn turbines and generators.  
🗑
show Energy stored inside the particles that things are made out of.  
🗑
show Dangerous particles and energy given off by uranium and other radioactive materials.  
🗑
renewable energy resource   show
🗑
show Flat plates that convert light energy into electrical energy.  
🗑
show Flat plates that use the Sun's energy to heat water.  
🗑
show Making electricity by using light or heat energy from the Sun.  
🗑
show The machine in a power station that is pushed round by water or steam and turns the generator.  
🗑
show A fuel used in nuclear power stations.  
🗑
wind turbine   show
🗑
joule (J)   show
🗑
kilojoule (kJ)   show
🗑
convection current   show
🗑
show Making electricity using heat from hot rocks underground.  
🗑
show Making electricity by letting falling water (usually from a reservoir) turn turbines and generators.  
🗑
show Making electricity by using the nuclear energy stored inside uranium.  
🗑
show Process that plants use to make their own food. It needs light to work. Carbon dioxide and water are used up. Food (a sugar called glucose) and oxygen are produced).  
🗑
tidal power   show
🗑
