Across
- 3. Heat heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount (usually one degree).
- 5. degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object, especially as expressed according to a comparative scale and shown by a thermometer or perceived by touch.
- 7. of energy a principle stating that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can be altered from one form to another.
- 9. process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance when there is a difference of temperature or of electrical potential between adjoining regions, without movement of the material.
- 10. an object due to the kinetic energy of its atoms and/or molecules.
- 11. sum of potential energy and kinetic energy.
- 12. electric current can flow freely, in an insulator it cannot.
Down
- 1. the emission of energy as electromagnetic waves or as moving subatomic particles, especially high-energy particles which cause ionization.
- 2. energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.
- 4. energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.
- 5. branch of physical science that deals with the relations between heat and other forms of energy (such as mechanical, electrical, or chemical energy), and, by extension, of the relationships between all forms of energy.
- 6. Change solid or liquid or gas
- 8. a substance which does not readily allow the passage of heat or sound.
- 9. movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.
