What is Chemical Energy?

Back

Chemical Energy is the energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules. Examples include biomass, petroleum, natural gas, propane, and coal.

Front

What is Thermal Energy?

Back

Thermal Energy is the internal energy in substances, which is the vibration or movement of atoms and molecules.

Front

What type of energy is associated with the movement of atoms and molecules?

Back

Thermal Energy.

Front

At which point is potential energy at its greatest when a pendulum swings?

Back

At point 1, which is the highest point of the swing.

Front

What is Radiant Energy?

Back

Radiant Energy is energy that travels in waves, such as sunlight, radio waves, and X-Rays.

Front

What are examples of Radiant Energy?

Back

Examples include sunlight, radio waves, and X-Rays.

Front

What is the relationship between potential energy and kinetic energy in a pendulum?

Back

As a pendulum swings, potential energy is highest at the top of the swing and kinetic energy is highest at the lowest point.

Front

What is an example of Stored Mechanical Energy?

Back

A compressed spring or a drawn bow.

Front

What is Gravitational Energy?

Back

Gravitational Energy is the potential energy held by an object because of its high position compared to a lower position.

Front

How does energy transform in a swinging pendulum?

Back

Energy transforms from potential energy at the highest points to kinetic energy at the lowest point.
