Across
  1. 4. energy-stored energy due to the interactions between objects or particles
  2. 6. measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a material
  3. 7. transfer of thermal energy by the movement of particles from one part of a material to another
  4. 8. transfer of thermal energy due to collisions between particles
  5. 14. energy resource-an energy resource that is available in limited amounts or that is used faster than it can be replaced by natural resources
  6. 16. energy resource-an energy resource that is replaced as fast as, or faster than, it is used
  7. 17. insulator-a material through which thermal energy flows slowly
Down
  1. 1. amount of energy used as a force moves an object over a distance
  2. 2. ability to cause change
  3. 3. transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves
  4. 5. energy-energy due to motion
  5. 9. disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another without transferring matter
  6. 10. transformation-the conversion of one form of energy to another
  7. 11. transfer-the process of moving energy from one object to another without changing form
  8. 12. of conservation of energy-law that states that energy can be transformed from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed
  9. 13. movement of thermal energy from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature
  10. 15. conductor-a material through which thermal energy flows quickly
