Front

What type of energy does a toaster convert?

Back

A toaster converts electrical energy to thermal energy.

Front

What is energy transfer?

Back

Energy transfer occurs when energy moves from one object to another.

Front

What is gravitational potential energy (GPE)?

Back

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has due to its height above the ground.

Front

What is kinetic energy (KE)?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion.
