newtons law
_____ is when an object resists change in motion
inertia
what is energy
means the ability to do work
What is kinetic energy
is the energy of motion
what are waves
a disturbance that carries energy from one location to another.
what are circuits
control the movement of electric current by providing paths for electrons to follow
The formula for Newton's 2nd law is
F=ma
the law of conservation of energy
In other words, energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transformed.
What is kinetic energy
The energy of motion
what are transverse waves

Newtons 3rd law
states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
what is mechanical energy
is the energy an object has due to its motion or due to its position
what is plasma
is a state of matter that starts out as a gas and becomes ionized
what is a longitudinal waves
a wave that has the motion of the medium parallel to the direction of the wave.
battery, power plant generator
newtons first law states a object at rest ____while an object in motion__
remains at rest , stays in motion
What is renewable energy
are energy sources that are continually replenished.
States of matter
Examples of electromagnetic waves
light, radio, microwave, TV, X-rays, gamma rays.
What three basic parts do circuits need
