Unit 1 Review

2. the energy an object has as a result of its location above the earth’s surface
4. a property of certain kinds of materials that causes them to attract iron or steel.
6. energy stored as a result of applying a force to deform an elastic object.
7. the energy an object has while in motion
8. energy that is stored in the bonds between atoms
9. an instrument that uses a freely moving magnetic needle to indicate direction.
11. the ability to do work or cause change; the ability to move an object some distance
12. a conductive loop that allows charged particles to continually move through it.
15. energy that an object has because of its motion or its position
17. current the number of electrons that pass a given point in a certain amount of time - ampere (a)
18. energy that does not need matter to travel; light; sun (solar)
19. a material electrons/energy do not moves easily through
20. to push away, as similar poles of two magnets push away from one another.
21. either of two opposing forces or parts, such as the poles of a magnet (n & s).
22. an invisible field around a magnet.
23. a material electrons/energy moves easily through

1. a conductive loop with an opening which does allow the particles to move
3. any material capable of attracting iron and producing a magnetic field.
5. a device that transforms mechanical energy into electrical energy.
10. the energy an object stores while at rest
11. energy in the form of charged particles
13. a conductive loop with an opening which doesn’t allow the particles to move
14. energy in the form of heat
16. a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. (usually contains a wire wound into a coil).
