Energy related to the temperature of an object.

Electromagnetic Energy

Energy in the form of electromagnetic waves, such as light.

Energy produced by vibrating objects that create sound waves.

Energy from the movement of electric charges.

Gravitational potential energy

Energy stored in an object due to its height above the ground. A type of potential energy.

Energy stored in stretched or compressed objects.

Energy stored in the nucleus of atoms.

Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds.

A form of energy that flows from warmer objects to cooler ones.

The transfer of heat through direct contact between materials.

The transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases.

The transfer of heat or energy through electromagnetic waves.

Electromagnetic waves that can be seen by the human eye.

A type of high-energy electromagnetic wave used in medical imaging. Cannot be seen by the human eye.

Electromagnetic waves with long wavelengths used for communication.

To take in energy, light, or sound.

The process by which energy or light is absorbed (or taken in) by a material.

To bounce off a surface. Example: light bouncing off a mirror.

Light goes through a material and changes direction (example: light going through a cup of water)

Electromagnetic spectrum

The range of all types of electromagnetic radiation.

The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can see.

The speed at which sound waves travel through a medium. In air, the speed of sound is about 1,000 kilometers per hour or about 800 miles per hour.

A buildup of electric charge on the surface of objects.

"Stop!" A material that does not allow electricity or heat to flow through it easily.

"Go!" A material that allows electricity or heat to pass through it easily.

An electric current that flows in one direction.

Alternating Current (AC)

An electric current that changes direction periodically.

A circuit in which electricity has only one path to follow.

A circuit where electricity has more than one path to follow.

A circuit with a break that prevents the flow of electricity. Example: an open switch.

A complete circuit where electricity can flow. Example: a closed switch.

The opposition to the flow of electric current.

Areas around magnets where magnetic forces can be felt.

A device that uses magnets to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.

The opposite of a motor: it uses magnets to convert movement into electrical energy.

A machine that converts wind or water movement into mechanical energy.

Non-renewable energy derived from ancient organic (plant) matter, such as coal or oil.

Resources that can be easily renewed or replaced naturally. Examples: trees, plants, solar energy, wind energy, geothermal energy.

Nonrenewable resources

Resources that cannot be quickly replaced or renewed. Examples: oil, gas, petrol, petroleum, diesel, natural gas, fossil fuels.

Renewable energy due to the movement of water.
