Across
  1. 3. The energy related to an object's position, its shape, or the arrangement of its particles.
  2. 5. The energy related to an object's motion.
  3. 6. A wave that consists of both electric and magnetic field components, which vibrate perpendicular to each other; also called a light wave.
  4. 9. A judgment (decision) that is based on analyzing data and is reached by reasoning.
  5. 11. Each repetition of a scientific experiment.
  6. 13. A property of matter that can be either positive or negative and that causes particles to experience an attractive force when near a particle of opposite charge or a repulsive force when near a particle of the same charge.
  7. 15. The data that either supports or does not support a hypothesis.
  8. 16. Pieces of collected information or measurements.
  9. 18. Energy stored in an object that is determined by the object's mass, its height (altitude), and the acceleration due to gravity at the object's location.
  10. 20. Based on observations and results from experiments rather than on inference.
  11. 21. The energy stored in an atom's nucleus due to the fundamental forces that hold its particles together.
  12. 23. A planned series of actions that test whether an idea is true.
  13. 25. Anything that takes up space and has mass.
  14. 26. The energy of an object due to its chemical bonds and the arrangement of its particles.
  15. 28. Energy that travels as an electromagnetic wave; also called light energy.
  16. 29. Potential energy of an object due to its location within a magnetic field.
Down
  1. 1. Potential energy due to the distortion of an object or system.
  2. 2. Able to be trusted.
  3. 4. An orderly process of gathering and thoroughly examining facts and testing them to find out whether they can explain something that happens.
  4. 7. One of the three particles that make up atoms: an electron, a proton, or a neutron.
  5. 8. The energy of an object or a system due to the total kinetic energy of its particles.
  6. 10. The dense center of an atom, made up of protons and neutrons.
  7. 12. Close to the actual value.
  8. 14. A statement that proposes a testable explanation for a natural phenomenon.
  9. 17. The ability to cause change in matter.
  10. 19. Energy that moves through matter as a sound wave resulting from the vibrations of particles that make up the matter.
  11. 22. Energy generated by a flow of electrons.
  12. 24. Exact.
  13. 27. A factor that can change during an investigation or in nature.
