Science Vocab Activity
Across
- 6. Energy / the energy of an object that is due to the object’s motion
- 8. Resources / a resource that forms at a rate that is much slower that the rate at which it is consumed
- 10. / a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact
- 12. Energy / the amount of work an object can do because of the object’s kinetic and potential energies
- 14. Energy / the energy that an object has because of the condition of the object
- 16. Energy / movement of a charged particle through a wire is called current, or more commonly, electricity
- 18. Energy / stored in the bonds of chemical compounds (atoms and molecules)
Down
- 1. Energy / energy that travels by waves or particles, particularly electromagnetic radiation such as heat or x-rays
- 2. Fuels / a nonrenewable energy resource formed from the remains of organisms that lived long ago
- 3. Energy / movement of energy through substances in longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves
- 4. Energy / the energy released during nuclear fission or fusion, especially when used to generate electricity
- 5. Potential Energy / energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field
- 7. Generators / a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy
- 9. Potential Energy / Potential energy stored as a result of deformation of an elastic object, such as the stretching of a spring
- 11. Resources / a natural resource that can be replaced at the same rate at which the resource is consumed
- 13. Conversion / a change from one form to energy to another
- 15. Of Conservation Of Energy / the law that states that energy can not be created or destroyed but can be change
- 17. Energy / the kinetic energy of a substances atom
