Across
- 2. how an object gains or loses energy
- 3. created when nuclei of atoms are split or fused
- 6. rate at which work is done
- 7. potential energy created by moving electrons through a magnet
- 10. object's ability to do work
- 11. the potential energy that pulls objects towards earth
- 13. inventor known for working with electrical energy
- 18. force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact
- 19. created by a mechanical wave traveling through a medium
- 20. potential mechanical energy stored as a result of deformation of an object
Down
- 1. principle of physics that states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance is proportional to that distance
- 4. energy stored in bonds between molecules
- 5. flow of electrons through a conductor
- 8. energy generated by moving molecules resulting in temperature
