Heat and Energy
Across
- 3. the energy that is associated with charged particles because of their positions
- 5. a device that measures energy from the sun
- 7. the energy of an object that is due to the object's motion
- 8. the energy produced by heat within the Earth
- 9. the energy released when a chemical compound reacts to produce new compounds
- 10. plant material, manure, or any other organic matter that is used as an energy source
- 11. a system that cannot exchange matter or energy with its surroundings
- 13. a natural resource that can be replaced at the same rate at which the resource is consumed
- 16. the burning of a substance
- 17. produced by the vibrations of electrically charged particles
- 19. the energy that an object has because of the position, shape, or condition of the object
- 21. the energy released by a fission or fusion reaction; the binding energy of the atomic nucleus
- 23. a substance that reduces the transfer of electricity, heat, or sound
- 24. the percentage of energy put into a system that does useful work
- 25. a machine that transforms heat into mechanical energy, or work
Down
- 1. the process by which the nucleus splits into two or more fragments and releases neutrons and energy
- 2. shows how a vibrating object transmits energy through the air around it
- 4. the change from one form of energy to another
- 6. the energy of moving electrons
- 12. a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact
- 14. Heat engines that burn fuel outside the engine
- 15. the physical forms of matter, which are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma
- 18. the capacity to do work
- 20. the energy that is transferred as electromagnetic waves, such as visible light and infrared waves
- 22. a device that measures heat
