Energy - Literacy

6. Instrument used to measure temperature.
11. The unit of energy used by electricity companies, symbol kWh.
14. Energy resources whose supply will not run out.
21. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred.
22. 1 kilowatt = 1000 W, symbol kW.
24. 1 kilojoule = 1000 J, symbol kJ.
27. current The movement of heated liquids or gasses.
28. The transfer of energy as a wave.
30. Objects are at thermal equilibrium when they are at the same temperature.
31. Energy of moving objects.

1. A material that conducts charge or energy well, such as a metal or graphite.
2. Energy that has become spread out or ‘wasted’ by heating the environment.
3. Energy due to the position of an object in a gravitational field.
4. Energy stored in food and fuels.
5. Coal, oil, and gas made from the remains of trees and sea creatures over millions of years.
7. store Energy stored when objects change shape
8. The unit of power, symbol W.
9. A way in which energy is transferred through solids, and to a much lesser extent in liquids and gases.
10. The transfer of energy by the movement of gases or liquids.
12. Energy resources that have a limited supply.
13. Energy in objects as a result of the motion of their particles.
15. Something such as a food or hot object that enables you to account for the energy at the start and end of a transfer.
16. The unit of energy, symbol J.
17. A rotating lever that reduces the force required to do work.
18. A simple machine that multiplies the force.
19. A way of transferring energy that does not involve heating.
20. The number in watts or kilowatts that tells you the rate at which an appliance transfers energy.
23. A material that does not conduct electricity or transfer energy well.
25. Materials or mechanisms for heating or generating electricity.
26. Associated with changes in temperature or with work.
29. Radiation given off by the Sun and other objects that brings about energy transfer.
