Energy Sources

3. this happens when electrons flow or travel through a wire. Car batteries are an example of this type.
4. the SI unit of work energy
6. energy contained within a system for its temperature. Baking in an oven is an example.
7. a type of energy an object has due to its motion
10. a type of potential energy of an object that can be stretched or compressed. A rubber band is an example.
11. energy stored in the bonds of chemical compound. Natural gas is an example.
13. when an object is caused to move at a certain distance
15. a substance that provides a form of energy as a result of chemical change. Oil, coal are examples.
17. stored energy that results from the position or shape of an object
18. energy most known by movement of the atom or molecule. Burning wood is an example.
19. the process of burning something
20. this energy is an object combined with kinetic and potential energy. A wind turbine is an example.

1. the ability to do work or cause change
2. radiant energy that travels in waves at the speed of light. Microwaves are examples.
5. a type of potential energy that is related to an objects height. Vehicle parked on top of a hill.
8. this energy is released from the nucleus, the core of the atoms, made up of protons and neutrons. Produced through fusion.
9. electromagnetic radiation waves of energy that is visible to the human eye. Lightbulbs are an example.
12. this type energy states no energy is destroyed in the process
14. energy travels through an object causing vibrations and waves of an object. Radio is an example.
16. the ultimate source of energy for the whole earth
