Work is only being done while the force is applied to an object. a force that resists the motion of two surfaces that are touching friction law of conservation of energy energy can be transformed from one form into another of transformed from one region to another, but energy cannot be created or destroyed fossil fuel the remains of ancient organisms that can be burned as an energy source inexhaustible energy resource an energy resource that cannot be used up an energy resource that is available in limited amounts or that is used faster that it is replaced in nature nonrenewable energy resource an energy resource that is replaced as fast as, or faster than, it is used renewable energy resource Sort the Energy Resources Nonrenewable Energy Resources oil coal gasoline nuclear energy fossil fuels petroleum Renewable Energy Resources hydroelectric solar panels wind turbines geothermal biomass
