Across
  1. 5. This energy source comes from blocking up a running river and releasing the water to spin turbines. The turbines then spin generators.
  2. 7. These resources CAN be brought back after a short period of time.
  3. 8. Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can be converted from one form to another.
  4. 11. This is a radiant type of energy that comes from the sun. It is considered clean because it does not pollute.
  5. 12. This energy is stored in the nucleus of an atom. It is released through fission.
  6. 14. This is the resource that is used by nuclear energy. It is considered non-renewable.
  7. 15. This energy is made available by the flow of electric charge through a conductor. It is a CURRENT.
  8. 16. This energy is stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules. Examples are biomass, petroleum, natural gas, and coal. Batteries have this type of energy.
  9. 17. This is energy from LIGHT. It comes from electromagnetic energy that travels in transverse waves.
Down
  1. 1. These resources CANNOT be replenished when they run out; they will run out.
  2. 2. In this energy source, steam from within the earth spins a turbine, which spins a generator.
  3. 3. This is a flowchart that shows the type of energy put into a system and the energy conversion, including waste.
  4. 4. This energy source comes from things that we can grow ourselves; corn, wood, manure, etc.
  5. 6. This is energy from HEAT. It comes from the vibration and movement of the atoms and molecules within substances.
  6. 9. These are non-renewable resources that are made from the remains of dead plants and animals. Coal, oil, and natural gas are examples.
  7. 10. This energy is stored in the MOVEMENT of objects.
  8. 13. This is a renewable energy source that relies on the wind to spin a turbine. The turbine spins a generator.
