What is conduction?
Transfer of heat through direct contact.
What is a wave?
Any disturbance that transmits energy through matter or empty space.
What is a solid?
A state of matter with tightly packed molecules.
What is matter?
Matter is anything that takes up space.
What is observation?
What is radiation?
Radiation is heat transfer through electromagnetic waves through empty space or air.
What is frequency?
The number of waves (wavelengths) produced in a given amount of time; measured in waves per second or "Hertz".
What is a liquid?
A type of matter that has molecules that move more freely than solid molecules.
What is an atom?
An atom is the smallest piece of an element that still retains the unique properties of that element.
What is communication?
Communication is using words or graphic symbols to describe an action, object, or event.
What is heat?
Heat is the energy transfer between objects that are at different temperatures.
What is a wavelength?
Distance from any point on a wave to the identical point on the next wave.
What is a gas?
A gas is a type of matter where the molecules move more freely than solids and liquids.
What is an element?
An element is a pure substance composed of identical atoms found on the periodic table.
What is classification?
Classification is grouping or ordering objects or events into categorizations based on properties or criteria.
What is thermal equilibrium?
thermal equilibrium is when two substances transfer heat until they reach the same temperatures
what is a crest?
the highest point in a transverse wave.
What is a boiling point?
The point at which a liquid turns into gas.
What is a molecule?
A molecule is made up of two or more atoms linked by chemical bonds.
What is measuring?
Using both standard and nonstandard measures or estimates to describe the dimensions of an object or event.
What is convection?
The transfer of heat through liquids and gases.
what is an amplitude?
the maximum distance the particles of a wave vibrate from the resting position; the "height" of a wave.
What is a freezing point?
What is a compound?
A compound is a substance made up of two or more different elements joined by chemical bonds.
What is inferring?
INferring is making an educated guess about an object or event based on previously gathered data or information.
