Force & Motion
This is required to change the velocity of an object.
What is Force?
This force keeps planets in constant orbit around other planets.
What is gravity? (or gravitational force)
This is what allows like poles to repel and opposite poles to attract.
What is the Law of Magnetic Poles?
This is organized based on the wavelength and frequency.
What is Light Waves?
These structures in the body, such as the eyes, are responsible for detecting stimulus.
What are sensory receptors?
This type of energy is stored in an object (for ex. a ball) and increases as the object is held at a higher starting point.
What is potential energy?
This is the hierarchy of space from smallest to largest.
What is Earth -- Solar System -- Milky Way -- Universe?
In an electromagnet, increasing the amount of *this* will increase the strength of magnetic force.
What are the amount of coils? (turns)
This has the longest wavelength and the lowest frequency.
What is radio waves?
This organism serves this primary role because they use sunlight to make food.
What is producers?
This term describes the energy of motion that increases as particles in a substance are heated.
What is kinetic energy?
This causes the Earth to spin once every 24 hours.
What is Rotation Axis?
This is when objects such as iron, nickel, and cobalt have a strong magnetic attraction.
What is Ferromagnetic?
This has the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency.
What is Gamma Rays?
This biological process explains why certain traits become more common in a population over time.
What is natural selection? (or evolution)
If you increase the mass of a planet, this happens to the gravitational pull it exerts on its moons.
What is It Increases?
This causes one side of the moon to always be in darkness and one side to always be in sunlight.
What is Tidal Locking?
This allows a flow of charge from one place to another.
What is Electric Current?
This is a change in pitch. When the sound is closer, it is louder. When it is farther, it is lower.
What is the Doppler Effect?
This is the phase change that occurs when a liquid is heated to reduce its water content.
What is evaporation? (boiling)
The result of a force being exerting on each object. The two forces are exerted in opposite directions but they are the same strength.
What is collision?
This is when a celestial body casts a shadow on another on another celestial body and blocks the light.
What is an Eclipse?
This is necessary for electric charge to flow through a conductor and form a continuous path.
What is a Closed Circuit?
This is the bending of light which affects the appearance of objects creating illusions.
What is Refraction?
This observation, such as a color change or the formation of bubbles, is evidence that this type of reaction has occurred.
What is chemical reaction?
