100
This glass tool can be used to create a rainbow with white light.
What is a prism?
100
The 3 phases or states of matter
What are solid, liquid and gas?
100
This is how sound travels.
What are sound waves?
100
A push or pull that can move an object
What is force?
100
The movement of heat between two objects that are touching.
What is conduction?
200
Light that bounces off a surface (such as a mirror)
What is reflection?
200
Something that has mass and takes up space.
What is matter?
200
The cause of sound
What are vibrations?
200
A force that opposes motion. This force can create heat. (Think: rubbing hands together).
What is friction?
200
A material that transfers heat or electricity easily (such as metal)
What is a conductor?
300
The bending of light when it goes through an object (think about why a pencil looks bent in a glass of water).
What is refraction?
300
The two main types of energy
What are kinetic (moving) and potential (stored)?
300
Another word for volume of sound
What is amplitude?
300
The amount of matter that makes up an object
What is mass?
300
A material that does not allow heat or electricity to flow easily.
What is an insulator?
400
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.
What are the visible colors of light? or What are the colors in white light?
400
Name 3 types of energy.
What are light, heat, sound, electricity, mechanical (motion), gravitational, atomic, or chemical? (needs 3 to be correct)
400
This type of sound has a high frequency and lots of vibrations per second. (think pitch)
What is a high pitched sound?
400
The force of attraction between two objects that have mass (think about the earth and a person).
What is gravity?
400
Type of electrical circuit that will not allow electricity to flow.
What is an open circuit?
500
This is what happens to light if it is not reflected.
What is absorption?
500
The ability to do work or cause change.
What is energy?
500
The type of matter sound travels fastest in.
What is a solid?
500
A change in position of an object.
What is motion?
500
A circuit in which the electrical current flows through more than one path.
What is a parallel circuit?
