Across
- 3. The standard unit of measurement for energy and work.
- 5. The ability to do work or cause change.
- 7. The process of combining small nuclei to release energy (occurs in the sun).
- 11. Energy caused by the movement of electrons through a conductor.
- 13. Stored energy based on an object's position or condition.
- 14. The sum of potential and kinetic energy in a system.
- 16. Internal energy caused by the vibration of atoms and molecules (heat).
Down
- 1. The transfer of energy that occurs when a force moves an object over a distance.
- 2. Potential energy related to an object's height above the ground.
- 4. Energy produced by vibrations traveling through a medium as longitudinal waves.
- 6. The process of splitting a heavy nucleus into smaller parts to release energy.
- 8. Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom.
- 9. The unit of measurement for power, equal to one joule per second.
- 10. Electromagnetic energy that travels in transverse waves, such as light.
- 12. Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds like food or batteries.
- 15. The energy of an object in motion.
