| Energy | The ability to cause change |
| Heat | The type of energy that moves from anything having a higher temperature to anything having a lower temperature |
| Kinetic Energy | Energy that causes change in the form of motion |
| Law of Conservation of Energy | States that energy can change form, but it cannot be created or destroyed under ordinary conditions |
| Mechanical Energy | The total kinetic energy and potential energy in a system |
| Potential Energy | Energy that is not causing change right now but is stored for potential use |
| Specific Heat | The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of a material 1 degree Celsius |
| Temperature | A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in matter |
| Thermal Energy | The total energy of particles in a material, including both kinetic and potential energy |
| Work | The transfer of energy through motion |
