Question

identifying forms of energy
match each form of energy with its description.
thermal energy
electrical energy
kinetic energy
radiant energy
gravitational potential energy
a box moving along a conveyor belt
radio waves transmitted from a tower
lightning produced during a storm
a piece of fruit hanging from a tree
sand on the beach feels warm to the touch

Explanation:

Thermal energy is related to heat, so "sand on the beach feels warm to the touch" is thermal energy. Electrical energy involves electricity, thus "lightning produced during a storm" is electrical energy. Kinetic energy is energy of motion, so "a box moving along a conveyor - belt" is kinetic energy. Radiant energy includes electromagnetic waves, making "radio waves transmitted from a tower" radiant energy. Gravitational potential energy is due to an object's position in a gravitational field, so "a piece of fruit hanging from a tree" is gravitational potential energy.

Answer:

Thermal energy - sand on the beach feels warm to the touch
Electrical energy - lightning produced during a storm
Kinetic energy - a box moving along a conveyor - belt
Radiant energy - radio waves transmitted from a tower
Gravitational potential energy - a piece of fruit hanging from a tree
