Mechanical Energy

2. The amount of matter in an object.
4. The rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.
6. Advantage, How much a machine multiplies force or makes work easier.
9. Machine, A basic device that changes the direction or magnitude of a force (like a lever or pulley).
11. Energy, The total potential and kinetic energy in a system.
16. A force that resists motion between two surfaces in contact.
19. Energy, Energy due to the motion of particles within a substance.
20. Energy, The energy an object has because it is moving.
21. A push or a pull that can change an object’s motion.
23. The distance an object travels per unit of time.
24. System, A system that can exchange both energy and matter with its surroundings.

1. A group of interacting parts that move or work together.
3. Energy, Stored energy due to the position or condition of an object.
5. of Energy, When energy moves from one object to another.
7. Potential Energy, Stored energy due to an object’s height and gravity’s pull.
8. of Energy, The process of changing one form of energy into another.
10. A measure of how much useful energy is converted from one form to another.
12. of Conservation of Energy, States that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.
13. Potential Energy, Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds.
14. The transfer of energy that occurs when a force is applied over a distance.
15. Potential Energy, Energy stored when an object is stretched or compressed.
17. Point, A location used for comparison to determine if an object is in motion.
18. System, A system that doesn’t exchange energy or matter with its surroundings.
22. The ability to cause change or do work.
