movement of waves through a substance or object caused by vibrations

energy from light waves (e.g., solar, light bulb)

changing from one form to another (e.g., energy transformation)

natural resources that cannot be replaced once depleted (e.g., oil, coal, natural gas, nuclear)

the transfer of energy from a light source (e.g., Sun, fire, light bulb, burner) to an object or substance

movement of objects or substances from one place to another

Thermal energy

states that energy is neither created or destroyed; it only changes form

a form of kinetic energy resulting from the motion of particles that is transferred as heat; associated with the temperature of substances
