energy

• the ability to cause change

• making contact; objects touching each other

• thermal energy, a form of energy that cause substances to rise in temperature

• to move from one place to another

collision

• stored energy in objects that are stretched

• making contact/touching

• a change in position

• vibrations of air, water, or solid molecules that reach our ears

heat

• the form of energy that makes vision possible

• to move from one place to another

• a form of energy that causes a rise in temperature

  Heat is energy is energy in motion

• a change in position/movement
