Energy Review
The two basic categories
of energy are _________
and __________.
Kinetic and
Potential
True or False?

because all colors of light
are being absorbed.
False
This type of energy travels
in compression waves.
Sound
Draw how it is possible that you can
see the puppy on the screen. What’s
happening with the light?
Your drawing
should include a
projector, an eye,
and a screen.
Skydivers
gain______
energy as they
fall to Earth.
Motion
An energy ________ is
where one type of energy
changes to another type.
Transformation

lights because they
have ________
energy.
Radiant/
Electromagnetic
An object looks black
because all colors are being
______ into the object
Absorbed
Draw a simple and complete
circuit. Include a battery, some
number of wires, and a lightbulb.
Energy stored in a
marshmallow is an
example of this form
of energy? _______
Chemical
What type of energy travels
in transverse waves?
Radiant/
Electromagnetic
A tennis ball can
be compressed
(squeezed) so it
has ______
potential energy
Mechanical
What can you use to split white
light (like from the Sun or an
incandescent lightbulb) into its
component colors? Make a list.
The lightbulb works
because ______ energy in
the battery transforms
into ______ energy in the
wires.
Chemical
to Electrical
The lightbulb itself works
by transforming ______
energy into ______ energy
as the electricity moves
through the filament.
Thermal
to Radiant
True or False?
Only moving objects have
energy
False

student clicking their pen (stop
already!). What’s happening with
the waves?

Energy is found only in
living things.
False
________ energy is
stored energy.
Potential
What form of
energy do
skydivers lose
as they fall?
Gravitational
This type of energy is
caused by vibrations that
move air molecules.
Sound
True or False?
Every day items such as
sunglasses, CD’s and shoes
have no energy.
False
_________ energy is
energy of motion
Kinetic
