100
The slope of a distance versus time graph represents....
What is speed?
100
The force that opposes the motion of two objects as the move or slide past each other?
What is friction?
100
The form of energy of an object resting at the top of the hill has.... The form of energy of an object as it is rolling down the hill...
What is potential energy (resting at top of hill) and kinetic energy (rolling down the hill)?
100
The continuous flow of charge through a closed circuit and its unit.
What is current (I) and ampere (amps or A)?
100
Another term for recorded observations and measurements which are made during an experiment.
What is data?
200
This is the difference between speed and velocity.
What is velocity has direction? Recall that speed is just how fast you are going (ex: 55 mph (the speed limit sign gives you this - look down in your car at the speedometer...) velocity tells you how fast and in what direction (ex 55 mph north or 25 mph east...)
200
Equal in size or magnitude but opposite in direction as pictured here
What are balanced forces?
200
__________ is the transfer of __________. Pick the two correct words from this list (temperature, energy, momentum, impulse, work, force)
What is work is the transfer of energy?
200
This type of circuit is shown
What is a parallel circuit? Bonus question - if one bulb goes out will the second bulb go out? If you are doing this at home check your notes or textbook for the correct answer.
200
This is used as a standard for comparison in an experiment?
What is a control group?
300
The change in an object's velocity over time?
What is acceleration? (recall there are three ways we can recognize that an object is accelerating. 1 - the object speeds up, 2 - the object slows down, and 3 - the object changes direction)
300
This property of an object resists a change in the objects motion.
What is inertia? (Recall that inertia - recall this is related to the mass of the object but it is not the same!)
300
This is the definition of potential energy.
What is energy stored as a result of an object's shape or position? (examples: elastic potential energy is energy stored in a spring or stretched elastic band and gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position in a gravitational field)
300
The difference between DC (direct current) and AC (alternating current).
What is DC- the current flows in only one direction, while AC - the current switches directions (back and forth)?
300
The difference between mass and weight.
What is mass is the amount of matter in an object and weight is the gravitational force acting on the object?
400
These graphs would represent an object which is moving with ________, ___________, ____________.
What is zero speed (or object at rest), constant speed, and increasing speed?
400
A bowler is accelerating a 6 kg bowling ball at a rate of 30 m/s^2. This is the magnitude of the force applied to the bowling ball.
What is 180 N?
400
This is the definition of thermal energy.
What is the total potential and kinetic energy of the particles in a substance?
400
Type of energy conversion provided by a battery in a circuit?
What is chemical to electrical?
400
Sally pushes a couch 5m across the floor using a horizontal force of 20N. The work done by Sally on the couch...
What is 100J?
500
According to this graph the object the object's motion over each section.
What is constant speed (0 to A), speeding up (or accelerating A to B), moving at constant speed (B to C), and slowing down ( or decelerating C to D)?
500
These are statements of Newton's three laws of motion.
What is (Law 1) Object in motion stays in motion and an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force (Law 2) An unbalanced force will cause an object to accelerate F=ma (Law 3) For every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force
500
The SI unit for heat and the SI unit for temperature.
What is a Joule (J) and Kelvin (K)?
500
Three methods of "transferring" electric charge or creating a charge imbalance on an object.
What is conduction (transfer by touch), friction (transfer by rubbing), and induction (charge imbalance without touching - if you want the imbalance to be permanent we have to ground the second object - check your notes/text)?
500
A physical science students is given this lab scenario to evaluate for IV, DV, control group, and constants. George wanted to see if the amount of minerals in the soil effects the growth of his ferns. He plants ten plants in soil with no added minerals, ten plants in soil with a few minerals, and ten plants in soil with a lot of minerals. He measured the height of his ferns with a ruler after 2 weeks.
What is amount of minerals (IV - independent variable), growth of plant or plant height (DV - dependent variable), plants with no minerals (control group), and type of plant, type of minerals used, amount of light and water, time before measuring, temperature of the plants.... (constants).
