Energy and Resources
Across
- 1. Renewable resource that comes from rotting plants
- 4. When atoms and molecules collide together and heat up causing the temperature to rise
- 7. What resource is used for fuel for vehicles
- 9. Gasses that absorb radiation and gives off heat in all directions
- 12. When an unstable atom losses its energy
- 17. When turbines convert kinetic energy from wind and turn it into mechanical power
- 19. Fuel that is extracted from biomass rather then fossil fuels
- 22. When the prevention on wasting energy is in effect
- 24. An object that contains chemical energy that is converted into electricity
- 25. Something that can produce heat, electricity, and move objects
- 27. Energy that is stored in bonds of different compounds
- 30. When the rise and fall of tides convert kinetic energy of incoming tides into electricity
- 31. Energy an object had based on its position
- 33. Energy stored in an object with a temporary strain on it
- 38. Non-renewable resource that comes from plants millions of years ago
- 40. When hydrogen and oxygen are combined to create water and produce electricity
Down
- 2. An alternative energy source that is based on atomic fission
- 3. Fossil fuel that is primarily used for electricity
- 5. Energy that is produced when potential and kinetic energy is combined
- 6. When a there is a constant flow of electricity
- 8. Energy sources that do not hurt the Earth
- 10. Potential energy that that an object has because if its position in the gravitational field
- 11. What are products called that are naturally made
- 13. Creates electricity through heat and is low risk to the environment
- 14. What energy is produced when water is harnessed to power objects
- 15. What power is generated by stored energy in the Earth
- 16. Energy an object has while its in motion
- 18. Fossil fuels are considered what type of resource
- 20. Renewable resource that is the extracted from the burning of organic materials
- 21. Energy the is reflected through waves that travel through space
- 23. When you use energy to connect two things together
- 26. An object that absorbs energy from wind and turns it into electricity
- 28. When light beams are absorbed into panels it creates what kind of energy
- 29. Power created from physical or chemical resources
- 32. What resource is typically used to heat homes
- 34. Resources that are replaced by the Earth that will never disappear
- 35. When an atom splits and releases energy
- 36. Unit of measurement of energy
- 37. Liquid that is extracted from petroleum and used as fuel
- 39. Earth's main source of energy
