What is epicenter?

300

the place inside Earth's crust where an earthquake originates.

What is focus?

400

This wave shakes material inside the earth in the direction of the wave's propagation

What is p wave?

500

This forms before a star is born as gravity causes material to collapse and start to heat up but not so hot that fusion occurs

What is prostar?

waves

100

full of or shedding light; bright or shining, especially in the dark

What is luminous?

200

 light with slightly shorter wavelengths than visible light.

What is ultraviolet

300

this determines the speed of any wave

What is medium

400

another name for electromagnetic.

What is light?

500

this effect is due to the source of a wave moving toward or away from the observer

What is doppler effect?

Momentum

100

Since momentum has both magnitude and direction it can be classified as this.

What is a vector?

200

This is the name we give for the change in momentum.

What is impulse?

300

This is the final velocity a 500 kg car that starts at rest will have after it is rear-ended by a 650 kg that is initially going 20 m/s. The cars lock together after they hit.

What is 11.3 m/s?

400

A 5 kg loaded rifle is initially held at rest and then fired. The 0.05 kg bullet leaves the barrel at 450 m/s. This is the final momentum of the bullet-gun system.
