Quantum Mechanics
This is the name for the tiny particles that make up everything around us.
What is particles?
This is the star at the center of our solar system.
What is the sun?
This describes an atom?
What is the smallest unit of ordinary matter?
This is the basic unit of life.
What is a cell?
This force pulls objects toward Earth.
What is gravity?
This principle says that tiny particles can behave like both waves and particles.
What is wave-particle duality?
This planet has the shortest year in our Solar System, completing one orbit around the Sun in just 88 Earth days.
What is Mercury?
This is the number of protons in an atom.
What is the atomic number?
This organelle is known as the "powerhouse" of the cell.
What is the mitochondria?
This is the SI unit used to measure force.
What is Newtons?
This famous experiment showed that electrons can produce an interference pattern when sent through two slits.
What is the double-slit experiment?
This is the boundary around a black hole beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape.
What is the event horizon?
When two or more elements chemically combine, they form this.
What is a compound?
This process allows plants to convert sunlight into chemical energy.
What is photosynthesis?
According to Newton's First Law, an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted on by this.
What is an unbalanced force?
According to the uncertainty principle, you cannot know both the exact position and this property of a particle at the same time.
What is the uncertainty principle?
This is the force that keeps planets in orbit around the Sun.
What is gravity?
An atom has 6 protons and 6 electrons. This element is it.
What is carbon?
This molecule carries genetic information and is shaped like a double helix.
What is DNA (bonus points for Deoxyrybonucleic Acid)?
A car travels 100 m in 5 seconds. This is its average speed.
What is 20m/s?
What is the term for a quantum system, like an electron, existing in multiple states until observed
What is superposition?
When astronomers observe that light from a distant galaxy is shifted toward longer, redder wavelengths, this provides evidence that the galaxy is doing this relative to us.
What is moving away from us?
This type of chemical reaction occurs when one element replaces another element in a compound
What is single displacement reaction?
This process produces two genetically identical body cells from one original cell.
What is mitosis?
A 10 kg object accelerates at 2 m/s². Using F = ma, this is the force acting on it.
What is 20N?
