Properties of Matter
Anything that has mass and takes up space.
Matter?
A push or pull acting upon an object, measured in Newtons (N)
Force
The capacity or ability to do work, which exists in various forms like thermal, electrical, and mechanical.
Energy
A state of matter with a definite shape and a definite volume.
Solid
The continuous flow of electric charge through a conductive pathway.
Current
The amount of matter in an object.
Mass?
The natural tendency of an object to resist any change to its state of motion.
Inertia
The energy an object possesses due to its motion.
Kinetic Energy
A state of matter with a definite volume but no definite shape.
Liquid
A complete, closed path that allows an electrical current to circulate.
Circuit
The measure of the gravitational force acting on a mass.
Weight
The rate at which an object changes its velocity over time.
Acceleration
The stored energy an object possesses due to its position, state, or configuration.
The Potential Energy
A state of matter with no definite shape or volume.
Gas
A material that permits heat or electricity to transfer easily through it.
Conductor
The amount of mass per unit of volume
Density
The force that opposes motion between two surfaces sliding past one another.
Friction
A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
Temperature
A fluid's resistance to flowing.
Viscosity
A material that actively resists or prevents the flow of electricity or heat.
Insulator
The amount of three-dimensional space occupied by a substance.
The attractive force between any two objects that have mass.
Gravity
The transfer of energy that occurs when a force makes an object move
Work
The vaporization of a liquid that occurs only at its surface.
Evaporation
The invisible force of attraction or repulsion exerted by magnetic fields.
