Math Terms

100

Definition of a coefficient.

What is the factor of a variable?

200

Definition of a reciprocal.

What is the "flipped" ratio used to switch from dividing to multiplying, commonly in fractions (ex: 1/3 -> 3/1)?

300

Definition of hypotenuse.

What is the side opposite to the right angle and the longest leg?

400

Definition of a binomial.

What is a two-term expression involving their sum or difference?

500

In graphing, this is a line that a curve or function approaches closer and closer to, but never actually touches, as it heads off to infinity.

What is an asymptote?

Math Applications

200

A heavy elephant is charging towards a victim to trample, accelerating at 1.5 m/s. They hit the victim with 7500N of force. The mass of the elephant is ____.

What is 5000kg?

400

Field of math involving limits and why.

What is integral calculus and used to define derivatives and integrals?

Physics

500

Explain whether or not the Lorentz Factor alters E=mc² while an object is at rest.

What is no, because it must apply to an object at motion to alter the formula?

Must Explain:

(γ= 1/√1-v²/c², so if velocity is 0, then 0*0=0, so 

1-0 = 1, and √1 = 1, meaning 1/1=1, therefore not altering the original equation in any way.)
