Across
- 4. the scale for measuring temperature in which the freezing and boiling temperatures of water are defined to be 0 and 100 , respectively.
- 5. the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
- 7. an electric charge that lets work be accomplished.
- 10. the scale for measuring temperature in which the freezing and boiling temperatures of water are be 32 and 212 , respectively.
- 14. The emission and propagation of energy in the form of rays or waves.
- 15. the change of energy from one form to another.
- 17. the capacity for doing work
- 18. the internal energy of an object due to the kinetic energy of its atoms and/or molecules.
- 20. the fraction 1⁄273.16 of the thermodynamic temperature of the triple point of water (exactly 0.01 °C or 32.018 °F).
- 23. states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed but can be transformed.
- 25. the heat transfer by mass motion of a fluid such as air or water when the heated fluid is caused to move away from the source of heat, carrying energy with it.
Down
- 1. the energy that it possesses due to its motion.
- 2. the tendency of matter to change in shape, area, and volume in response to a change in temperature.
- 3. the energy released by the nucleus of an atom as the result of nuclear fission, nuclear fusion, or radioactive decay.
- 6. an object or type of material that allows the flow of an electrical current in one or more directions.
- 8. form of energy that is reflected or emitted from objects in the form of electrical and magnetic waves that can travel through space.
- 9. the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position.
- 11. the lowest possible temperature. It is the point at which the atoms of a substance transmit no thermal energy - they are completely at rest.
- 12. the transfer of energy between an object and its environment, due to fluid motion.
- 13. an object or type of material that doesn't allow the flow of an electrical current.
- 16. energy is transferred by the movement of electrons or ions. Compare convection.
- 19. the measure of the warmth or coldness of an object or substance with reference to some standard value.
- 21. the energy that is stored in an object.
- 22. the movement of energy through substances in longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves.
- 24. the amount of energy exerted when a force of one newton is applied over a displacement of one meter.
