Its speed in a vacuum is 3 x 108 m/s.
What is the speed of light?
Known for his three laws of motion and for the development of calculus.
Who is Isaac Newton?
What pulls something back to Earth?
What is gravity?
PV=nRT
What is the ideal gas law?
What is the velocity if a ball travels 20 meters in 2 seconds?
What is 10m/s
Its speed is 9.8 m/s.
What is gravity on Earth?
He discovered EM waves.
Who is Heinrich Hertz
What must be exerted upon an object at rest to cause it to move?
What is Force?
What states that energy cannot be created or destroyed?
What is the law of conservation of energy?
If a person has a mass of 50 kilograms, the person's weight in newtons will be about.
What is 490 newtons?
(50 * 9.8 = 490)
Its charge is 1.6 x 10^-19 C.
What is an elementary charge?
Known for his laws of planetary motion he also was the first to determine that refraction drives vision into the eye.
Who is Johannes Kepler?
If a basketball, baseball, and golf ball are drop from the same position at the same time which one lands first?
What is they all land at the same time?
This law states that current flow in a circuit is directly proportional to the potential difference between its ends. (I = V/R)
What is Ohm's Law.
A car is traveling with a velocity of 10 m/s and it has a mass of 250 kg. Compute it's kinetic energy?
What is 12,500 joules?
(1/2 (250)(10)^2 =12,500)
What is known as 6.022 x 10^23 mol^-1?
What is Avogadro's Constant.
He is best known for the development of the law which describes the inversely proportional relationship between the absolute pressure and volume of a gas, if the temperature is kept constant within a closed system. He is the namesake for this law which describes how pressure decreases as volume increases.
Who is Robert Boyle
An object has a negative acceleration, this means it is.
What is slowing down?
The force of attraction or repulsion of two ions is directly proportional to the product of their changes and inversely proportional to the square distance between them.
What is Coulombs Law.
A girl starts her motion in a straight line at a velocity of 30 m/s, her velocity is changing at a constant rate. If she stops after 60 s, what is her acceleration?
What is -0.5 m/s^2?
(0-30)/(60) = -0.5 m/s^2
The resulting unit of force when mass in kilograms is multiplied by meters per second squared.
What are newtons?
Best known for his contributions to quantum mechanics he introduced the uncertainty principle and played a crucial part in developing matrix mechanics.
Who is Werner Heisenberg?
Another word for distance in a certain direction.
What is displacement?
This law can be used to determine the field or enclosed current. The SI unit of current is named after this law.
What is Amphere's Law
What is the acceleration of an object that moves with uniform velocity?
What is 0m/s^2
