Waves
The distance between the equilibrium position and a crest or trough.
What is amplitude?
A state of matter with a fixed shape and fixed volume.
What is a solid?
The type of energy due to its position without motion.
What is potential energy?
The specific ordered list of all known elements.
What is the Periodic Table of Elements?
The formula for net force.
F = m x a
The term used to describe the relationship of frequency and wavelength.
What is Inversely?
This state of matter takes the shape of its container but has a fixed volume.
What is a liquid?
What is kinetic energy?
The characteristic of an atom that identifies an element by the number of protons.
What is the atomic number?
What is Newton's 1st Law?
The kind of wave that oscillates PERPENDICULAR to the propagation of the wave
What is a Transverse Wave?
The state of matter that has an unfixed shape, unfixed volume, and is compressible.
What is a gas?
The unit of measurement for energy.
The characteristic of an atom that describes the number of neutrons and protons together.
What is the mass number?
The name of the force that opposes motion.
What is friction?
The name of the behavior that describes when waves bounce off a reflective surface.
What is reflection?
The name of the process of a liquid losing energy and becoming a solid.
What is freezing?
The kind of energy due to the motion of its atoms and molecules (related to heat).
What is thermal energy?
An atom of an element with a different number of neutrons.
What is an isotope?
This is equal to its mass x velocity.
What is momentum?
The two consecutive points on a longitudinal wave that are used to determine the wavelength. (There are two acceptable answers).
What are Compressions or Rarefaction?
The names of the three scientists who determined certain gas behaviors and laws, along with the relationships between pressure, volume, and temperature.
