Measurement?
100
the process of changing state from a gas to a liquid
What is Condensation?
100
a push or pull that acts on an object; anything that changes the motion or shape of an object
What is Force?
100
the process of heat transfer through the flow of a heated substance such as air or water
What is Convection?
100
the attraction between the molecules of two different substances in contact with each other
What is adhesion?
100
the mass of a given volume
What is density?
200
the process of changing state from a liquid to a gas
What is Evaporation?
200
force that opposes the sliding motion between two touching surfaces
What is friction?
200
the study of pressure in liquids
What is Hydraulics?
200
the strength with which the particles of an object or fluid attract each other
What is cohesion?
200
the amount of matter in a substance or an object; the more matter, the greater the mass
What is mass?
300
the process of changing state from a solid to a liquid
What is Melting?
300
the attractive force between objects; the force that causes objects to be pulled toward the centre of Earth
What is gravitation?
300
the use of gas (usually air) in an enclosed system under pressure
What is pneumatics?
300
the resistance of a fluid to flow; the slower the flow, the greater the viscosity
What is viscosity?
300
the amount of space taken up by a substance or object
What is volume?
400
the process of changing state from a liquid to a solid by the removal of heat
What is Solidification?
400
a pushing or pulling force that acts on certain metals and compounds such as iron, nickel and cobalt
What is Magnetic?
400
the amount of force applied over a given area to an object
What is pressure?
500
the process of changing state from a solid to a gas without going through the liquid stage
What is Sublimation?
500
the amount of force on an object due to gravity
What is weight?
