#1
Front (Question)

What is energy?

Back (Answer)

Energy is the ability to do work.

#2
Front (Question)

What are the major types of energy?

Back (Answer)

Movement, heat, chemical, electrical, gravitational, light, nuclear, elastic, and sound. They are either kinetic or potential energy.

#3
Front (Question)

What is the unit used to measure energy?

Back (Answer)

Joules(J)

#4
Front (Question)

What does the law of conservation of energy state?

Back (Answer)

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred and transformed

#5
Front (Question)

Define kinetic energy

Back (Answer)

Energy that can be seen doing something

#6
Front (Question)

Define potential energy

Back (Answer)

Energy that is stored and has potential to be used for movement

#7
Front (Question)

What are the different potential energy?

Back (Answer)

Chemical, Gravitational, Nuclear, Elastif

#8
Front (Question)

What are the different kinetic energy

Back (Answer)

sound, movement, light, heat, electrical

#9
Front (Question)

Define chemical energy

Back (Answer)

Energy stored within substance, such as fuel or food, that may be released when the substance is burnt or digested

#10
Front (Question)

Define gravitational energy

Back (Answer)

The stored energy in an object that is held above the surface of the Earth

#11
Front (Question)

define nuclear energy

Back (Answer)

energy stored in the nucleus of an atom

#12
Front (Question)

define elastic energy

Back (Answer)

Energy stored in compress or stretched objects

#13
Front (Question)

Define sound energy

Back (Answer)

travel as vibrating waves and can be heard by our ears as sound

#14
Front (Question)

Define movement energy

Back (Answer)

Energy of moving object

#15
Front (Question)

Define light energy

Back (Answer)

Energy in electromagnetic spectrum

#16
Front (Question)

Define heat energy

Back (Answer)

Measure of total kinetic energy possessed in a substance

#17
Front (Question)

Define electrical energy

Back (Answer)

Energy that cause charged particles to move

#18
Front (Question)

Law of conservation of energy

Back (Answer)

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed.

#19
Front (Question)

What is temperature

Back (Answer)

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles

#20
Front (Question)

What is heat

Back (Answer)

Heat is form of energy. Heat describes the total energy of all particles within an object

#21
Front (Question)

What is heat transfer

Back (Answer)

Heat transfer is the flow of heat from areas of high temperature to areas of low temperature. The greater the temperature difference the faster the flow.

#22
Front (Question)

What is heat transfer

Back (Answer)

Heat transfer is the flow of heat from areas of high temperature to areas of low temperature. The greater the temperature difference the faster the flow.

#23
Front (Question)

What are the three forms of heat transfer

Back (Answer)

Conduction, convection, radiation

#24
Front (Question)

What are the three forms of heat transfer

Back (Answer)

Conduction, convection, radiation
