FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Kinetic Energy Noun
[ki-net-ik en-er-jee]
Back
Kinetic Energy
The energy an object possesses due to its motion, which is proportional to its mass and speed.
Example: A cyclist going downhill gains kinetic energy as they speed up due to gravity.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Potential Energy Noun
[po-ten-shuhl en-er-jee]
Back
Potential Energy
Stored energy a system of objects has based on their relative positions or internal chemical state.
Example: A boulder at the top of a hill has potential energy due to its position.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Electrical Energy Noun
[ih-lek-tri-kuhl en-er-jee]
Back
Electrical Energy
A form of energy that results from the movement or flow of electric charge through a material.
Example: A battery powers a light bulb through a closed circuit, demonstrating electrical energy flow.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Convert Verb
[kuhn-vurt]
Back
Convert
To change energy from one form into another, such as changing motion into electrical energy.
Example: A battery converts chemical energy into electrical energy to light a bulb.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Transfer Verb
[trans-fur]
Back
Transfer
To move energy from one object or location to another without changing its fundamental form.
Example: A ball in motion transfers energy to the next ball in a Newton's cradle, demonstrating energy transfer.
