Across
- 1. The energy stored in an object due to its position or state such as gravitational or elastic (Starts with P, 9 letters)
- 4. A measure of how much of the total energy input to a machine is transferred into useful energy output (Starts with E, 10 letters)
- 5. A material that allows thermal energy or electricity to pass through it quickly and easily (Starts with C, 9 letters)
- 8. An energy resource that can be replenished naturally at the same rate it is used meaning it will not run out (Starts with R, 9 letters)
- 10. The transfer of thermal energy through a solid material by the vibration of particles passing kinetic energy along (Starts with C, 10 letters)
- 11. The standard scientific unit used for measuring power equivalent to one joule per second (Starts with W, 4 letters)
- 13. The rate at which energy is transferred or the amount of work done per second (Starts with P, 5 letters)
- 14. A material that is a poor conductor of heat or electricity and slows down the transfer of energy (Starts with I, 9 letters)
- 16. An energy resource that exists in limited amounts and will eventually run out because it cannot be replaced quickly (Starts with N, 12 letters)
Down
- 2. The energy store associated with the temperature of an object or its microscopic particle motion (Starts with T, 7 letters)
- 3. The energy store of any moving object (Starts with K, 7 letters)
- 6. Energy that spreads out wastefully into less useful stores usually as heat into the surroundings (Starts with D, 10 letters)
- 7. The transfer of thermal energy by infrared waves that does not require any particles to travel through (Starts with R, 9 letters)
- 9. The transfer of thermal energy through fluids like liquids and gases when warm less dense fluid rises and cool dense fluid sinks (Starts with C, 10 letters)
- 12. The standard scientific unit used for measuring energy and work (Starts with J, 5 letters)
- 15. The amount of energy transferred when a force moves an object through a distance (Starts with W, 8 letters)
