  1. 4. Type of energy in an object due to its height above the ground
  2. 7. A category of energy that includes types of stored energy in an object that is due to its position, properties, and forces acting on it
  3. 9. Fill in the blank: Energy can't be created or destroyed, it can only be _____.
  4. 10. Type of energy that flows in circuits and can power devices
  5. 12. Type of energy due to the motion of an object
  6. 13. The ability to do work or cause change
  7. 15. Type of energy produced by atoms/molecules that vibration back and forth
  8. 17. Determine the 3 types of energy in the following example: When a flashlight is turned on, a flow of electrons is created by the batteries. The electricity passes through the incandescent lightbulb, causing the tungsten filament in the lightbulb to heat up. When the metal is hot enough, photons of light are emitted.

  1. 1. Determine the 5 types of energy in the following example: In a car engine, an electrical spark from the spark plug produces enough heat to ignite the fuel-air mixture in the piston (C8H18 + O2 → CO2 & H2O). Bonds break and reform, releasing heat, which causes the air in the cylinder to expand, pushing the piston down.
  2. 2. Type of energy stored in the nucleus of an atom
  3. 3. Determine the 3 types of energy in the following example: In a thunderstorm, negative charges build up underneath clouds and positive charges build up along the ground. Eventually, a current of lightning connects the two. The heat from the lightning causes air molecules to move back and forth, which produces the sound of thunder.
  4. 5. The process of changing energy from one form to another
  5. 6. A type of energy contained within an object due to the movement of its particles, which is directly related to its temperature
  6. 8. Determine the 3 types of energy in the following example: In the sun, nuclear fusion fuses hydrogen atoms into helium atoms, releasing heat. The heat energizes electrons in the helium and hydrogen atoms, producing electromagnetic radiation.
  7. 11. Type of energy stored in a substance's bonds
  8. 14. A category of energy related to an object's motion, meaning any object in motion possesses this type of energy
  9. 16. Energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation
