Across
  1. 3. The motion of waves, electrons, atoms, molecules and substances. (Examples: radiant, thermal, motion, sound, electrical)
  2. 4. The distance between two peaks of a wave.
  3. 6. The internal energy in substances - also known as heat - caused by the vibration or movement of molecules. (Example: fire)
  4. 9. Energy stored in the bonds between atoms in molecules. (Examples: gasoline, pizza)
  5. 11. The change of energy from one form to another.
  6. 14. Stored in the nucleus or center of an atom. (Example: plutonium)
  7. 15. Stored energy. (Examples: chemical, nuclear, elastic, gravity)
  8. 17. Electromagnetic energy that travels in transverse waves. (Examples: light, TV, microwaves)
  9. 18. Energy stored in objects by the application of force. (Examples: filled balloons, compressed springs)
  10. 19. Measurement of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force.
Down
  1. 1. Any resource that can be replaced naturally. (Examples: solar, wind, hydropower, geothermal, biomass)
  2. 2. Energy of place or position. (Example: person at the top of a slide)
  3. 5. The distance between the midline of a wave and the crest/trough. Measures how much energy is being transported.
  4. 7. Measurement of a system’s ability to do work. It can be transferred between objects but is never created or destroyed.
  5. 8. Movement of energy through a medium.
  6. 10. The number of wave cycles that are completed per second.
  7. 11. The movement of electrons. (Examples: lightning, electricity)
  8. 12. Movement of energy through substances in longitudinal waves which produces vibration. (Examples: music, echos)
  9. 13. A resource that cannot be readily replace by natural means (Examples: coal, oil, natural gas, petroleum, nuclear)
  10. 16. The energy of the movement of a substance from one place to another (Examples: wind, moving water)
