Thermal Energy

2. A labeled picture that explains an idea or concept.
3. To look at information carefully to understand it.
8. The energy that comes from the movement of particles in a substance. More movement means more thermal energy
10. The substance used to make something, like glass, plastic, or metal.
12. A measure of how hot or cold something is; it reflects the average energy of particle movement.
16. The energy of motion; particles moving faster have more kinetic energy.
18. A statement or answer to a question based on evidence.
19. To find the size, amount, or temperature of something using tools like a thermometer.
20. A visual representation of data, like a bar graph or line graph.
21. A guess about what will happen in an experiment based on what you know.
24. A material that allows thermal energy to pass through easily, like metal.
25. Information collected during an experiment, like measurements or observations.
26. A material that slows down the transfer of thermal energy.
27. The transfer of thermal energy through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases).
28. A drawing or diagram used to show how something works.

1. The explanation of how the evidence supports the claim.
4. A tiny piece of matter; everything is made of particles.
5. Solid, liquid, or gas, based on how particles are arranged and move.
6. A material that does not allow thermal energy to pass through easily, like rubber or foam.
7. A group of parts working together (e.g., an insulated cup system).
9. A test to learn about how something works or what happens.
11. A plan or drawing to show how something will be made or work.
13. The transfer of thermal energy through electromagnetic waves, like heat from the Sun.
14. Information or data used to support a claim.
15. When two objects reach the same temperature, and no more thermal energy is transferred.
17. The movement of energy from one object or system to another.
22. Thermal energy that moves from a warmer object to a cooler object.
23. Using your senses to notice or record details during an experiment.
24. The transfer of thermal energy through direct contact between particles of matter.
