Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Forms Of Energy Worksheet: Fill In The Blanks | MomJunction
Let's solve the task step by step using the word bank provided:

Word Bank:
- Electrical
- light
- work
- electrical
- power plants
- form, kinetic
- chemical
- mechanical
- thermal
- radiant
- nuclear
- destroyed

Now, let's fill in the blanks with the correct words:

---

1. Energy is the ability to do _________.

Answer: *work*
Explanation: By definition, energy is the capacity or ability to do work.

---

2. Energy can neither be created nor _________.

Answer: *destroyed*
Explanation: This is the Law of Conservation of Energy — energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.

---

3. Energy can be transferred from one _________ to another.

Answer: *form*
Explanation: Energy changes from one form to another (e.g., chemical → thermal), but it’s conserved.

---

4. The energy that is caused due to the energy stored in objects by tension is known as _________ energy.

Answer: *potential* (but "potential" isn't in the word bank) — Wait! Let's check the word bank again.

Wait — the word bank includes: mechanical, kinetic, chemical, nuclear, etc.

But "potential" is not listed. However, "mechanical" includes both kinetic and potential energy. But specifically, energy stored due to tension (like a stretched spring or pulled bow) is elastic potential energy, which falls under mechanical energy.

So the best fit from the word bank is: mechanical

Answer: *mechanical*
Explanation: Tension stores energy as elastic potential energy, which is a type of mechanical energy.

---

5. The energy that comes from the heat of a fire is known as _________ energy.

Answer: *thermal*
Explanation: Heat energy is also called thermal energy.

---

6. Any substance that can be used as a fuel contains _________ energy.

Answer: *chemical*
Explanation: Fuels like wood, gasoline, or coal store energy in their chemical bonds — this is chemical energy.

---

7. The sun provides the earth with _________ energy.

Answer: *radiant*
Explanation: The Sun emits energy in the form of light and heat — this is radiant energy.

---

8. Radiant energy is produced by the movement of _________.

Wait — this sentence seems incomplete. Let’s read carefully:

> 8. Radiant energy is produced by the movement of _________.

Looking at the word bank: We have electrical, light, work, etc.

But what produces radiant energy?

Radiant energy (like light) is often produced by the movement of electrons or charged particles. But “electrons” isn’t in the list.

However, the word “electrical” is in the word bank.

Let’s consider: Electrical energy can produce radiant energy (e.g., light bulbs). Also, electromagnetic radiation (radiant energy) is generated by moving electric charges.

So perhaps the intended answer is: electrical

But the sentence says: *"produced by the movement of _________"*

We need a noun.

Looking at the word bank: electrical is an adjective, but maybe it's being used as a noun? Unlikely.

Wait — perhaps the intended phrase is: movement of electrons, but that’s not in the bank.

Alternatively, maybe the sentence meant: *"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of particles"* — but that’s not in the bank.

Wait — perhaps there’s a typo or miswording.

But let’s look at the word bank again:
We have: electrical, light, work, power plants, form, kinetic, chemical, mechanical, thermal, radiant, nuclear, destroyed

None of these are clearly fitting for “movement of _________”

But wait — could it be electrical?

Maybe the sentence is: *"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of electrical charge"*, but again, not exact.

Alternatively, perhaps the blank is for "electrical", meaning:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of electrical [energy]"

But that doesn’t make grammatical sense.

Wait — let’s reconsider. Maybe the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of electrons" — but “electrons” isn’t in the bank.

Alternatively, think about nuclear reactions: The Sun produces radiant energy via nuclear fusion.

But that doesn’t match “movement of”.

Another idea: In physics, radiant energy is electromagnetic waves, which are produced by accelerating charged particles — so electrical is the closest.

Perhaps the intended answer is electrical, even if awkward.

But let’s see — maybe the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of atoms"? Not in bank.

Wait — perhaps the original sentence is missing something.

Alternatively, maybe it’s:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of electrical" — but that’s not right.

Wait — maybe the blank is for "light"?

No — "movement of light" doesn’t make sense.

Alternatively, perhaps the sentence should be:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of particles" — but not in bank.

Wait — perhaps the word "kinetic"?

"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of kinetic" — no.

Hmm.

Let’s try to find a better fit.

Wait — perhaps the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of electrical charge", but again, not in bank.

Alternatively, maybe the intended answer is "electrical", and the sentence is poorly worded.

But looking at the word bank, "electrical" appears twice — maybe it's meant to be used.

Alternatively, maybe the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of electrons", and we're supposed to use "electrical" as a proxy.

But that’s a stretch.

Wait — perhaps the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of electricity" — but "electricity" isn’t in the bank.

Alternatively, maybe the intended answer is "nuclear"?

But “movement of nuclear” doesn’t make sense.

Wait — perhaps the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of atomic particles" — still not helpful.

Wait — let’s go back to the original image description.

The user said: "I uploaded an image with a task..."

But since I can’t see the image, I must rely on text.

But perhaps the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of electrical charges" — and we’re to pick "electrical".

So maybe the blank is for "electrical".

But grammar-wise, it’s odd.

Alternatively, maybe the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of energy" — no.

Wait — perhaps the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of molecules"? Not in bank.

Another possibility: "kinetic" — but “movement of kinetic” doesn’t make sense.

Wait — perhaps the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of charged particles" — and we use "electrical".

Given the options, "electrical" is the most plausible.

Alternatively, maybe the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of light" — no.

Wait — perhaps it's a typo and should be:
"Radiant energy is produced by electrical sources" — but that’s not the sentence.

Alternatively, perhaps the intended answer is "nuclear", because the Sun produces radiant energy via nuclear fusion.

But again, “movement of nuclear” doesn’t make sense.

Wait — maybe the sentence is:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of atoms" — but not in bank.

Let’s re-express the sentence:
"Radiant energy is produced by the movement of _________."

What moves to produce radiant energy?

- Electrons in atoms (emitting photons)
- Accelerating charges
- Thermal motion (heat causing infrared radiation)

So the best fit from the word bank is "electrical", meaning electrical charges.

So despite the awkwardness, "electrical" is likely the intended answer.

Answer: *electrical*
