Across
- 5. A push or pull that causes movement or a change in motion.
- 7. Energy Energy stored in the chemical bonds of atoms and molecules.
- 8. Energy/Radiant Energy Energy (both visible and nonvisible light) resulting from the release of electromagnetic radiation; which does not require a medium and is released in all directions.
- 11. Potential Energy Energy stored due to an object’s position above the surface of a planet.
- 12. Energy Energy resulting from the movement of atoms and molecules in a system, causing them to collide with each other. Faster moving particles results in higher temperatures and slower moving particles results in lower temperatures.
- 15. of Conservation of Energy The theory is that energy can only transfer between objects and change form; it is never created or destroyed.
- 16. stretching, compressing, or distorting a material that will spontaneously return to its original shape.
- 17. height above the Earth or
- 19. Energy The energy stored in an object because of
- 20. A measure of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force.
Down
- 1. Energy Energy that is stored within an atom’s nucleus. Nuclear reactions including fusion, fission, and radioactive decay are sources of this type of energy.
- 2. The unit of measure used to describe the amount of energy that is in a system or that is being used/released in a system.
- 3. Energy The energy of an object has a result of its motion (can be on an atomic level).
- 4. Energy Energy resulting from the movement of charged particles (usually electrons) from one point to another.energy (both visible and nonvisible light) resulting from the release of electromagnetic radiation; which does not require a medium and is released in all directions.
- 6. bonds
- 9. Potential Energy Energy stored from stretching, compressing, or distorting a material that spontaneously returns to its original shape; like springs or rubber bands.
- 10. Transformation When one type of energy is converted into another; like when dammed water is released and the kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy.
- 13. Energy Energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion and position.
- 14. A type of mechanical force where a sudden force pushes an object in a specific direction.
- 18. Transfer The process by which energy is moved from one area to another.
