Definition of physics
What is the study of matter and its energy
Energy of motion
What is kinetic energy?
The energy that flows through a circuit.
What is electricity?
This is an invisible force caused by the unique properties of certain materials causing them to attract or repel.
What is magnetism?
State of matter with definite volume and shape.
What is a solid?
Who is the Father of Modern Physics?
Who is Isaac Newton?
This energy is the stored energy an object has because of its position or state.
What is potential energy?
This is the flow of electrons.
What is electrical current?
A north pole and a north pole of a magnet will ________.
repel
State of matter with indefinite shape but definite volume.
What is a liquid?
This occurs when a force acts on an object to move it some distance from the start point
What is work?
Energy of an object due to the movement of its particles and responsible for its temperature.
What is thermal energy?
These are the three components of a circuit.
What are the energy source, load (energy receiver), and pathway.
A north and south pole of a magnet will ___________.
attract
State of matter with indefinite volume and shape?
What is a gas?
A push or pull
a force
This type of energy can travel through a vacuum (a place with no matter).
Light energy
Magnetism (a force) extends out from a magnet in this invisible area.
What is the magnetic field?
Temperatures at which a substance changes from a solid to liquid AND liquid to solid.
What are melting and freezing points?
Physical or Chemical change:
A penny is no longer shiny.
Chemical.
Energy stored in bonds.
What is chemical energy?
This Danish physicist discovered electromagnetism (the flow of electrical current produces a magnetic field).
Who is Hans Christian Oersted?
Temperature at which substances go from liquid to gas AND gas to liquid.
What are the evaporation and condensation points?
