simple machines
what are some ways we use wedges in our daily life?
knives classify as wedges and we use knives to cut therefore we use wedges to cut things.
what types of energy could be found in forest fires?
thermal energy.
what element/chemical formula is NaCL?
sodium chloride/salt.
do minerals make up rocks? Do rocks make up minerals?
minerals make up rocks but rocks do not make up minerals.
what is matter?
matter is the building block for everything in exsistance.
is a screw an inclined plane?
Yes, it is.
what is the difference between potential and kinetic energy and how do they relate to each other?
How they are different: they are different because potential energy that is being stored and kinetic energy is energy in motion.
How they connect; they connect because to make kinetic energy you use the energy that is stored (potential energy) to move. Without it you could not have energy to move (kinetic energy).
how many elements are there on the periodic table
118
what are the steps of the rock cycle?
First magma or lava cool and crystallizes to make an igneous rock that gets chipped down slowly because of weathering and then is transported because of erosion. Then over time the sediment gets compacted into solid rock called sedimentary rock. This rock gets pushed down into the earth to get changed by high heat and pressure to form metamorphic rock. Then it gets melted again into magma.
what types of matter can we see, feel, smell, hear, and interact with?
physical matter
is a screwdriver a screw? If not what simple machine is it?
No, it is a wheel and axle
can kinetic energy turn into heat/thermal energy?
yes.
what are the parts of an element and where are they located?
the parts of an element are the nucleus, protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The nucleus is the center and the protons and neutrons circle around the nucleus and around the protons and neutrons is the electrons.
what comes first compaction or cementation?
Compaction comes first.
what i one example of physical change of matter found in our daily lives.
some examples include, cutting food, melting ice, and freezing water.
list 5 machines that use simple machines that we see in our daily lives. List what simple machines are in them.
bicycle: wheel and axle, knife: wedge, ramp: inclined plane, crane: pulley, and spiral staircase: screw.
what are some examples of energy transfer in our daily lives.
an example includes a lamp turning electrical energy into radiant energy.
how do you find the amount of neutrons in an element?
round up the mass of the element and subtract the atomic mass from the number.
what is plutonic rock
Plutonic rocks are coarse and crystallized igneous rock that is formed with lava below the surface.
provide one example of how matter chemically changes in our lives.
some example includes, burning a object and baking a cake.
How do simple machines connect to energy transfer.
It connects to energy transfer because a spring could be held down and produce potential energy and then can be released and the energy could be transfered into kinetic energy.
what are all 6 main types of energy?
hint: (not including kinetic and potential)
thermal, chemical, mechanical, nuclear, electrical, and radiant
how are the parts of the element (protons, neutrons, and electrons) charged?
protons are positively charged, neutrons are neutrally charged, and electron are negatively charged.
What is the difference between Bioclastic and clastic rock?
Bioclastic rock is rock with organisms such as fossils in them. Or made out of organic matter. And clastic is made of sediments or in other words, rocks that are made up by fragments of already existing minerals and rock.
does matter ever touch?
no they never touch.
