Match each of the following terms to its definition:

Heat Mechanical energy Fossil fuel Electromagneticenergy

Fission Chemical energy Kinetic energy Temperature

1. Temperature - the degree of hotness of an object or the environment

2. Chemical energy - energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules thatholds these particles together; also the energy released during a chemicalreaction

3. Electromagnetic energy - the movement of energy through space in waves

4. Fission - a type of reaction used to break the nucleus of radioactive materialsand release energy

5. Fossil fuel - fuels, including oil, natural gas and coal, that are formed from thedecomposition of ancient organisms, mostly plant material, but some animalmaterial as well; a fuel found in the earth that was formed millions of years ago

6. Heat - the thermal energy transferred from an object at higher temperature toan object at lower temperature

7. Kinetic energy - energy that is happening now; it is energy in motion

8. Mechanical energy - the energy an object has due to its motion or due to itsposition; the energy of moving parts
