Newton's Laws
This law states that an object at rest stays at rest unless acted on by a force.
What is Newton's First Law of Motion?
Momentum is the product of an object's mass and this.
What is velocity?
This is the ability to do work or cause change.
What is energy?
The three most common states of matter are solid, liquid, and this.
What is gas?
This it the part of a wave where the particles are closest together in a sound wave.
What is a compression?
The process of a liquid turning into a gas is called this.
If a 2 kg is moving at 3 m/s, its momentum is this.
What is 6 kg*m/s?
Lifting a book off the floor and placing it on a shelf is an example of this being done.
What is work?
In this state of matter, particles are tightly packed and only vibrate in place.
What is a solid?
The distance from one crest of a wave to the next is called this.
What is wavelength?
This type of energy is stored due to an object's position or shape.
What is potential energy?
According to this law, the total momentum of a system remains constant if no external forces act on it.
What is the law of conservation of momentum?
This type of energy is related to motion.
What is kinetic energy?
This process occurs when a gas turns directly into a solid, skipping the liquid phase.
What is deposition?
This type of wave requires a medium to travel through.
What is a mechanical wave?
This subatomic particle has negative charge and orbits the nucleus.
What is an electron?
When two objects collide and stick together, it's called this type of collision.
what is inelastic collision
A stretched rubber band has this type of potential energy.
What is elastic potential energy?
The particles in a plasma state are different from those in a gas because they are this.
What is ionized (electrically charged)?
This is the unit used to measure the intensity or loudness of a sound.
What is the decibel (dB)?
The bending of waves around a barrier or through an opening is called this.
What is diffraction?
This term describes the change in momentum of an object when a force is applied over a period of time.
This law explains why the total amount of energy in a closed system remains the same, even as it changes forms.
What is the Law of Conservation of Energy?
This term describes the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas throughout the entire volume, not just the surface.
What is the boiling point?
This type of wave causes particles to move in a direction parallel to the wave's motion, and is commonly seen in sound waves.
What is a longitudinal wave?
