What happens when an object melts?

a. It changes properties 

b. It changes states

c. It becomes a gas

d. Achemical change

B. It changes states

300

Give 2 example of physical properties.

1.Density

2. Melting point.

What is the difference between contact forces and non-contact forces?


Contact forces happen when objects touch each other, like pushing or pulling. Non-contact forces happen even when objects don’t touch, like gravity or magnetism.



400

Define System.

System: A group of interacting parts that move or work together.

400

What is the difference between a chemical change and a phyical change?

Chemical change- A change that can change the substance.

Physical change- A change that does not change the substance.

400

What is the formula for work?

Work(W)= Force(F) times Distance(D) OR W=Fd


400

Evaporation

500

Why do objects fall to the ground when dropped?

Objects fall to the ground when dropped because of gravity.


500

What's the definition of work?

Work: The transfer of energy to an object by a force that causes the object to move in the direction of that force.

500

What is melting? What state change occurs during melting?

Melting is a process where a substance transitions from a solid to a liquid state.

500

Potential Energy: Stored ____ an object has due to its _____ or condition.

Energy, position
