200
what is Independent variable
a variable whose variation does not depend on that of another.
300
what is Amplitude
The amplitude of a periodic variable is a measure of its change over a single period
300
what is Element
a part or aspect of something abstract, especially one that is essential or characteristic
300
what is Conduction
the process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance when there is a difference of temperature or of electrical potential between adjoining regions, without movement of the material.
300
what is Gas
an airlike fluid substance which expands freely to fill any space available, irrespective of its quantity.
300
what is Experiment
a scientific procedure undertaken to make a discovery, test a hypothesis, or demonstrate a known fact.

500
what is Diffraction

500
what is Neutron
The neutron is a subatomic particle, symbol n or n0 , with no net electric charge and a mass slightly larger than that of a proton
500
what is Convection
the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.
500
what is Lever
the exertion of force by means of a lever or an object used in the manner of a lever.
500
what is Scientific method
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.
