How does heat energy work?
What is IT TRANSFERS TO COOLER AREAS.
IT WILL ONLY STOP TRANSFERING WHEN THE COOLER AREA REACHES THE SAME TEMPERATURE OF THE HEAT BEING TRANSFERRED

What is the second law of motion?
What is THE ACCELERATION OF AN OBJECT IS DUE TO ITS MASS AND THE FORCE THAT APPLIED TO IT. EXAMPLE: A TENNIS BALL THAT IS FLICKED WITH YOUR FINGER WILL MOVE ABOUT 5 FEET, BUT A BOWLING BALL THAT IS FLICK WITH YOUR FINGER MAY NOT MOVE AT ALL.
400
What is the third law of motion?
What is FOR EVERY ACTION THERE IS AN EQUAL AND OPPOSITE REACTION. EXAMPLES: WHEN SKATEBOARDING TO MOVE FORWARD YOU PUSH BACKWARDS WITH YOUR LEG AND FOOT. WHEN PADDLING A BOAT YOU PULL BACK TOWARD YOURSELF WITH THE PADDLE TO MOVE FORWARD.

Mr. Wallace was pushing an empty shopping cart into the super market one windy day. He was have problems controling the cart on teh way in. After getting groceries and leaving the store it was just as windy. Only this time he noticed that he was not have trouble controling the cart. Why?

What is ON THE WAY INTO THE STORE THE CART DID NOT HAVE VERY MUCH MASS AND WAS EASILY MOVED BY THE WIND. ON THE WAY OUT OF THE STORE THE CART HAD GROCERIES IN IT AND THEREFORE HAD MORE MASS AND WAS NOT MOVED EASILY BY THE WIND.

How does newton's 1st Law of Motion apply to objects in outer space?
What is THE 1ST LAW OF MOTION IS ONE THAT STATES AN OBJECT AT REST WILL REMAIN AT REST AND AN OBJECT IN MOTION WILL REMAIN IN MOTION UNLESS ACTED UPON. IN SPACE THERE IS NO AIR OR GRAVITY SO THERE IS NOT FORCE TO ACT ON A MOVING OR AT REST OBJECT.

How does light energy travel and what is refraction?
What is LIGHT TRAVELS IN STRAIGHT LINES.
REFRACTION IS THE BENDING OF LIGHT THROUGH AIR AND LIQUIDS. LIGHT MOVES SLOWER THROUGH LIQUIDS BECAUSE IT IS MORE DENSE THAN AIR
