Across
- 1. The ability to do work
- 4. Cycle The continuous process by which carbon is exchanged between organisms and the environment.
- 5. of Conservation of Energy States that energy can change form, but it cannot be created or destroyed.
- 7. Energy Energy of motion
- 10. A soft brownish coal showing traces of plant structure, intermediate between bituminous coal and peat.
- 11. Rays electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than approximately one tenth of a nanometer. Fastest
- 12. Rain Rain that has a lower than normal pH level because of burning fossil fuels
- 14. occurs when heat energy is transferred from earth’s surface air to atmospheric air.
- 17. The source of all energy on Earth
- 18. an electromagnetic wave of high energy and very short wavelength, which is able to pass through many materials opaque to light.
- 20. Resource Is a natural resource that cannot be re-made or re-grown at a scale comparable to its consumption.
- 25. outer layer that creates the ‘solar wind’ which can go 800 km/s
- 26. Energy Is the energy from the Sun transmitted as electromagnetic wave.
- 27. Oil Known as Petroleum a type of nonrenewable resource that id drilled out of the ground used for gasoline
- 28. surface layer responsible for most of visible light
Down
- 1. Radiation. heat energy from the sun
- 2. Transform Energy’s ability to change from one form to another
- 3. Winds They are a continuous stream of electrically charged particles that are given off by a magnetic field around the sun.
- 6. Is a relatively soft coal containing a tarlike substance called bitumen. It is of higher quality than lignite coal but of poorer quality than anthracite.
- 8. occurs as pockets of air near earth’s surface are heated, become less dense, rise, cool, and sink.
- 9. Most abundant of nonrenewable resource produces sulfur dioxide
- 13. waves. Electromagnetic radiation spectrum at wavelengths longer than those of visible light,
- 15. Rays Invisible rays that are part of the energy that comes from the sun. Filtered by ozone layer
- 16. Energy Stored energy or energy of position
- 17. cooler areas of surface that appear darker
- 19. Hard variety that contains relatively pure carbon and burns with little flame and smoke (cleanest burning)
- 21. Waves Have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum, slowest
- 22. Flares. explosive out burst
- 23. Partially decayed plant material, burns dirty lots of pollution
- 24. Fuels Fuel that have been formed from the fossilized remains of prehistoric plants and animals.
