Across
- 5. The movement of energy from one place or object to another (e.g., heat moving from a hot stove to a pot).
- 8. Energy stored in the bonds between atoms in substances. It is released during chemical reactions (e.g., food digestion, battery operation, burning fuel).
- 9. Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom. It is released during nuclear reactions, such as those powering the sun or nuclear power plants.
- 10. A form of energy we can see (visible light). It travels in waves and can come from the sun, a light bulb, or fire.
Down
- 1. Stored energy due to an object's position or state (e.g., a ball held up high, a stretched rubber band, energy in food or fuel).
- 2. The energy of heat. It comes from the motion of tiny particles in matter and flows from hotter to colder objects.
- 3. The energy of motion. Any moving object has kinetic energy (e.g., a rolling ball, flowing water, wind).
- 4. Energy caused by the movement of electric charges (electrons) through a conductor, like in wires or lightning.
- 6. Energy produced by vibrations that travel through a medium (air, water, solids) as waves that our ears can detect.
- 7. The ability to do work or cause change. It cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed.
