State each of Newton's 3 laws.

1st law: An object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force

2nd law: force = mass x acceleration

3rd law: every action has an equal and opposite reaction

400

How does energy transfer in transverse waves?

Perpendicular to the direction of the wave motion. (up and down)

500

How many molecules on the following compound:  4H2O

four

500

Describe the shape of the line on a position time graph showing that an object is speeding up

curved, positive

500

How does convection transfer energy within gases and liquids? Be sure to mention density.

the particles within a fluid heat, expand and become less dense, causing them to rise. The cooler, less dense particles at the top, sink, heat up, and repeat the cycle.
