Question

Match each form of energy to it's description

Answer 1

1. Nuclear enegry
2.Chemical energy
3. Motion energy
4. Gravitational potential energy
5.Sound energy
6. Thermal energy

Answer 2

Explanation:

Motion energy is the energy of an object due to its motion.

Thermal energy is the internal energy of an object due to the movement of its particles or atoms.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position in a gravitational field.

Chemical energy is the energy stored within the bonds of chemical compounds.

Nuclear energy is the energy released when a nucleus splits or combines.

Sound energy is the energy that produces sound due to vibration of matter.

Therefore, each form of energy is matched to it's description as follows.

• Stored energy related to positions of atoms within molecules - Chemical energy.

• Energy released when a nucleus splits or combines - Nuclear energy.

• Energy related to an object's movement - Motion energy.

• Energy related to height - Gravitational potential energy.

• Energy generated by vibration of a string - Sound energy.

• Energy of motion of particles in a substance - Thermal energy.
