What's the Matter?
The three main states of matter
What are solid, liquid, and gas?
Three main types are kinetic, potential, and gravitional.
What is energy?
This holds back or resists motion between two surfaces
What is friction?
The temperature at which point an element or a compound changes to a solid.
What is a freezing point?
For every action there is an equal an opposite reaction.
What is Newton's third law of motion?
Contains electrons, protons, and neutrons
What is an atom?
This type of energy must have matter to vibrate
Law that states something at rest perfers to stay at rest and something in motion prefers to stays in motions.
What is inertia (Newton's first law of motion)?
A bond formed between two or more atoms with a charge.
Travels as a wave comprised of photons.
What is light?
Density, buoyancy, luster, plasticity, and ductility are all examples of
What are properties of matter?
This states that energy and matter cannot be created or destroyed. E=mc^2
What is the First Law of Thermodynamics?
Heat transfer through physical contact
What is conduction?
Changes the speed and bend of light.
What is refraction?
Long chains of repeating molecules, found in plastics.
What is a polymer?
A closed, continuous loop or pathway that directs the eletrical field and usually comprises a voltage source, conductors, a load, and a switch.
What is an electrical circuit?
This law states that in a closed system things go from a state of high order to disorder over time explaining why things break down and energy spreads out
What is the Second Law of Thermodynamics or the Law of Entropy?
Two or more substances interact and change into a new substance.
What is a chemical reaction?
What is mass and the distance between the objects?
These are in the outermost shell of an atom and determine how it interacts with other atoms
What is a valence electron?
A field around items that are stationarily charged.
What is an electrical field?
Acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.
F=ma (net force equals mass times acceleration)
What is Newton's second law of motion?
This forms when a compound with unequal sharing of electrons interacts with another molecule's partial charges
What is a polar bond?
What is a magnetic field?
