- 2. The transfer of energy in the form of electromagnetic waves, like heat from the sun or microwaves in a microwave oven.
- 6. The measure of how well energy is converted from one form to another, usually expressed as a percentage.
- 8. The transfer of heat energy in a fluid (liquid or gas) through the movement of the fluid itself, creating currents that distribute heat.
- 11. The process of changing energy from one form to another, such as from potential energy to kinetic energy.
Down
- 1. The principle that states energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form to another.
- 3. In the context of energy, it refers to the energy that is lost or not used efficiently during a process or conversion.
- 4. A closed loop or pathway through which electricity can flow, allowing it to power devices or perform work.
- 5. A form of energy resulting from the movement of charged particles, typically electrons, through conductive materials.
- 7. Energy that is stored in an object due to its position or condition, which has the potential to do work in the future.
- 9. The ability to do work or cause a change.
- 10. The energy an object possesses due to its motion.
