Matter
How do the particles in a solid move?
They are closely packed together allowing little to no space for the atom to move, however they are in constant vibration.
What is Conduction?
The heat transfer in a solid through direct contact
What is the difference between a closed and open circuit?
A closed circuit allows electrons to flow through it very easily, however an open circuit stops the flow of electrons and allows them to escape out of the circuit.
How do the particles move in a transverse wave? Remember your dance move.
up and down
What is a wavelength when talking about waves?
How do the particles of a liquid move?
They are spread out to allow the atoms to move freely and slowly.
What is Convection?
The heat transfer in liquids and gases
Heat transfers how?
Hot to Cold.....Que Kira's dance moves and singing
How do the particles move in a Congressional/Longitudinal wave? Remember your dance move.
Side to Side or Back and Forth
If a wave has a low frequency what does it tell us about the wave?
Low energy, long wavelength and low wave speed
How do the particles of a gas move?
They move very chaotically and sporadically causing the atoms to bump into each other eventually bouncing out of its container.
What is Radiation?
The heat transfer through any form of matter but does not need matter in order to transfer heat
What does Thermal Equilibrium mean?
What is the amplitude of the wave?
How high the wave goes up or how low it dips down.
What is the difference between a longitudinal and Conpressional wave?
Nothing they are the same type of wave
Please use an example to explain how the three states of matter can be interchangeable.
A solid can turn into a liquid and then a gas and back again. For example- Ice melting into a liquid heating up into a gas...... gas cools down turning into a liquid and then cools down even more turn turn back into a solid.
What is a series Circuit?
An electrical circuit that only has one pathway for electrons to flow
How does a switch work on an electrical circuit?
The switch allows an individual to easily open or close the circuit allowing the electrons to flow freely or stopping electron movement all together.
If a wave has a high frequency what does that tell us about that wave?
The wave has high energy, short wavelength, and a fast wave speed.
Waves carry ___________ not the medium itself.
Energy
Matter has to have what in order for it to be considered matter?
Mass and Volume
What is a parallel circuit?
An electrical circuit that has two or more pathways for electrons to run through.
Temperature measures what in an object?
The amount of heat and particle movement within an object.
How do we measure frequency within a wave?
Time two waves at the same time for example- 60 seconds and see how many waves pass through in a given amount of time.
Waves are going to do what overtime as the disturbance goes away?
Slow down and eventually fade out.
