Q: Q: What kind of energy constitutes the total kinetic energy of all the atoms that make up an object? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The atoms that make up matter are in constant motion, so they have kinetic energy. All that motion gives matter thermal energy. Thermal energy is defined as the total kinetic energy of all the atoms that make up an object. It depends on how fast the atoms are moving and how many atoms the object has. Therefore, an object with more mass has greater thermal energy than an object with less mass, even if their individual atoms are moving at the same speed. You can see an example of this in Figure below . Choices: - kinetic energy - phenomena energy - atmospheric energy - thermal energy A:
A: thermal energy

Q: Q: What term is used to express the measurement of how high land is above sea level? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Elevation measures how high land is above sea level. It gets colder as you go higher above sea level, which is why you see snow-capped mountains. Choices: - knots - latitude - distance - elevation A:
A: elevation

Q: Q: This heat is used to convert water into steam, which is then used to turn a turbine, thus generating what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The generation of electricity is critical for the operation of nearly all aspects of modern society. The following diagram illustrates the types of fuels used to generate electrical power in the Unites States. In 2009, almost 45% of the power generated in the U. S. was derived from coal, with natural gas making up another 23% of the total. The third primary source of electrical energy is nuclear power, which accounts for approximately 20% of the total amount generated. All of these fuels give off energy in the form of heat. This heat is used to convert water into steam, which is then used to turn a turbine, thus generating electrical power. Choices: - solar power - radiation power - heating power - electrical power A:
A: electrical power

Q: Q: What is defined as anything that takes up space and has mass? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Choices: - electrons - elements - atoms - matter A:
A: matter
