Here's the completed worksheet with explanations for each answer.
---
Part 1: Put names of object for each source of energy below.
| Energy Source | Names of Object (Examples) |
|-------------------|----------------------------------------------|
| Sound | Drum, Bell, Speaker, Whistle |
| Mechanical | Windmill, Car, Bicycle, Pendulum Clock |
| Heat and Light | Sun, Campfire, Light Bulb, Candle |
| Chemical | Battery, Food, Gasoline, Wood |
| Electrical | Flashlight, TV, Computer, Power Outlet |
| Nuclear | Nuclear Power Plant, Atomic Bomb, Reactor |
>
Explanation:
> -
Sound comes from vibrating objects like drums or speakers.
> -
Mechanical energy is motion or position energy — windmills and cars are classic examples.
> -
Heat and Light often come together from sources like the sun or fire.
> -
Chemical energy is stored in bonds — batteries and food release it when used.
> -
Electrical energy powers devices like flashlights or computers.
> -
Nuclear energy comes from reactions in atomic nuclei — power plants or bombs.

Part 2: For each picture write what the source of energy is.
*(Top Row, Left to Right)*
1.
Torch / Flame →
Heat and Light
*Explanation*: A torch produces both heat and visible light through combustion.
2.
Flashlight →
Electrical
*Explanation*: It runs on batteries, which provide electrical energy to power the bulb.
3.
Race Car →
Chemical
*Explanation*: The car’s engine burns fuel (gasoline), which is a chemical energy source.
*(Bottom Row, Left to Right)*
4.
Windmill →
Mechanical
*Explanation*: The wind turns the blades — this motion is mechanical energy.
5.
Campfire →
Heat and Light
*Explanation*: Burning wood releases heat and light energy.
6.
Baseball Player Swinging Bat →
Mechanical
*Explanation*: The player’s muscles convert chemical energy into kinetic (mechanical) energy to swing the bat.
