kinetic energy

Front

the energy an object has because of its motion

Back

gravity

Front

a force of attraction that exists between any two objects that have mass

Back

magnetic field

Front

a region in space near a magnet or electric current in which magnetic forces can be detected

Back

net force

Front

the combination of all forces on an object

Back

simple machine

Front

a simple device without moving parts that changes the magnitude or direction of a force

Back

electrical circuit

Front

A closed loop through which electrons can continuously flow from a current source.

Back

attract

Front

to pull towards

Back

Law of Conservation of Energy

Front

Energy cannot be created out of nothing, nor can it be completely destroyed. Energy can only change its form.

Back

chemical potential energy

Front

the energy stored in the chemical bonds of a substance

Back

friction

Front

a force that opposes the motion of a body across a surface or through a gas or liquid

Back

work

Front

Force exerted on an object that causes it to move in the direction of the force

Back

potential energy

Front

the amount of energy that is stored in an object; energy that an object has because of its position relative to other objects

Back

elastic potential energy

Front

the potential energy of an object that is stretched or compressed

Back

sound energy

Front

kinetic energy carried by sound waves

Back

chemical energy

Front

the energy that is stored in the bonds between atoms

Back

compound machine

Front

a device that combines two or more machines

Back

force

Front

a push or pull exerted on an object in order to change the motion of the object

Back

repel

Front

to force an object away

Back

mechanical advantage

Front

a measure of the force amplified by using a tool or simple machine

Back

energy

Front

the ability to do work

Back

electrical energy

Front

Kinetic energy caused by the movement of electrons.

Back

thermal energy

Front

kinetic energy in the form of heat

Back

mechanical energy

Front

the total energy that an object has because of its motion or its position

Back

mass

Front

a measure of the amount of matter in an object
