Question

Match the terms to the correct 

Answer 1

1. Mechanical energy: This can be either potential or kinetic and has to do with the energy of position and motion of an object.

2. Kinetic energy: This has to do with the speed of an object and how much mass it has, basically how the object is moving.

3. Potential energy: This type of energy is stored energy, it can be increased by getting into a higher position and/or stretching an object such as a rubber band.

4. Electrical energy: This is energy, which is transferred by the movement of electrons through a conductor.

5. Light energy: This is radiant energy from the Sun, it is the only kind of energy one can see with the eyes.

6. Thermal energy: This kind of energy can be transferred in three distinct ways 1) direction contact through collisions (also called conduction), 2) through a fluid making a current created by less dense fluids floating and more dense fluids sinking (also called convection), and 3) by waves traveling with or without a medium (also called radiation).

7. Sound energy: This kind of energy travels through vibrations on waves.

8. Chemical energy: This kind of energy is usually found in things like food or batteries.

9. Nuclear energy: This is the energy found in the nucleus of an atom.

10. Energy conversions: This is the term used when energy changes from one form to another.

Answer 2

This type of energy travels through vibrations on waves = 7. sound energy

This is the energy found in the nucleus of an atom = 9. nuclear energy

This type of energy can be transferred in three different ways = 6. thermal energy

This is the term used when energy changes from one form to another = 10. energy conversions

This has to do with the speed of an object and how much mass it has = 2. kinetic energy

This can be either kinetic or potential and has to do with the energy of position and motion of an object = 1. mechanical energy

This type of energy is stored energy = 3. potential energy

This is radiant energy from the sun = 5. light energy

This is energy that is transferred by the movement of electrons through a conductor = 4. electrical energy 

This type of energy is often found in things like batteries or food = 8. chemical energy

hope this helps
