Atom
What is the basic unit of a chemical element.
100
Calorie
What is the energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water through 1 °C (now usually defined as 4.1868 joules).
100
Magnetic
What is capable of being attracted by or acquiring the properties of a magnet.
100
Scientific method
What is a method of procedure that has characterized natural science since the 17th century, consisting in systematic observation, measurement, and experiment, and the formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses.
200
Forcee
What is strength or energy as an attribute of physical action or movement.
200
Element
What is a part or aspect of something abstract, especially one that is essential or characteristic.
200
Condensation
What is water that collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it.
200
Mass
What is a coherent, typically large body of matter with no definite shape.
200
Investigation
What is the action of investigating something or someone; formal or systematic examination or research.
300
Gravity
What is the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass. For most purposes Newton's laws of gravity apply, with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account.
300
Neutral
What is Belonging to neither kind; not one thing or the other; indifferent. Of or relating to a solution or compound that is neither acidic nor alkaline. Of or relating to a compound that does not ionize in solution. Of or relating to a particle, an object, or a system that has a net electric charge of zero.
300
Energy
What is the property of matter and radiation that is manifest as a capacity to perform work (such as causing motion or the interaction of molecules).
300
Matter
What is physical substance in general, as distinct from mind and spirit; (in physics) that which occupies space and possesses rest mass, especially as distinct from energy.
300
Variable
What is an element, feature, or factor that is liable to vary or change.
400
Speed
What is a measure of movement.
400
Neutron
What is a subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen.
400
Heat
What is heat seen as a form of energy arising from the random motion of the molecules of bodies, which may be transferred by conduction, convection, or radiation.
400
Volume
What is the amount of space that a substance or object occupies, or that is enclosed within a container, especially when great.
400
Experiment
What is a scientific procedure undertaken to make a discovery, test a hypothesis, or demonstrate a known fact.
500
Friction
What is the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another.
500
Electron
What is a stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids.
500
Evaporation
What is the process of turning from liquid into vapor.
500
Vibration
What is an oscillation of the parts of a fluid or an elastic solid whose equilibrium has been disturbed, or of an electromagnetic wave.
500
Independent variable
What is a variable (often denoted by x ) whose variation does not depend on that of another.
