Force
a push or pull
What is force?
The distance an object travels in one unit of time.
What is speed?
energy when an object is at rest
What is potential energy?
the transfer of heat through direct contact.
What is conduction?
a explanation for an observation that can be tested by scientific investigation.
What is a hypothesis?
Newtons
What is the unit for force?
speed equals distance divided by time
What is the formula you would use to find the speed of an object?
energy when an object is in motion.
What is kinetic energy?
the transfer of heat by movement of currents within a fluid.
What is convection?
the variable measured during an experiment.
What is the dependent variable?
you add them

What is the highest point?
the method of heat transfer used by a heater to heat a room.
What is convection?
independent variable
What is the variable that you test in an experiment?
you subtract them.

What is the lowest point?
the energy transformation that occurs in a battery operated flashlight once it is turned on.
What is chemical to electrical to light transformation?
using one or more of your senses to gather information and take note of what occurs
What is the observation?
