100
anything that takes up space and has mass
What is matter?
100
the change from a liquid to a gas
What is vaporization?
100
the force of an object on a surface divided by the total area
What is pressure?
200
matter with definite shape and volume
What is a solid?
200
the change from a gas to a liquid
What is condensation?
200
mass of an object divided by its volume; it can tell you whether an object will float or sink in a liquid
What is density?
300
matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape
What is a liquid?
300
the movement of thermal energy from a substance at a higher temperature to one at a lower temperature
What is heat?
300
an upward force on an object immersed in a fluid
What is the buoyant force?
400
the uneven forces acting on the particles on the surface of a liquid
What is surface tension?
400
the AVERAGE kinetic energy of the individual particles
What is temperature?
400
a statement that says that they buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displace by the object
What is Archimedes' principle?
500
a liquids resistance to flow
What is viscosity?
500
the total kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in a sample of matter
What is thermal energy?
500
the relationship which says that when a force is applied to a confined fluid, an increase in pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid
What is Pascal's principle?
