  1. 1. This energy is made available by the flow of electric charge through a conductor. It is a current.
  2. 2. This type of diagram show the energy that goes into a system, how much is used, and how much is wasted.
  3. 3. This law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be converted from one form to another.
  4. 5. In this energy type, steam from within the earth spins a turbine which spins a generator.
  5. 7. These resource cannot be replenished when they run out; they are gone forever.
  6. 8. This is a renewable energy source that relies on air currents to spin a turbine.
  7. 12. This energy is stored in the movement of objects.
  8. 13. These are non-renewable resources that are made from the remains of dead plants and animals. Coal, oil, and natural gas are examples.
