3&4 Flashcards
(29 cards)
A measure of the charge a force causes when its acts upon something
Work
The rate at which work is being done
Power
Energy of a moving object
Kinetic Energy
The amount of work somethings could by falling to the ground.
Potential energy
In the absence of outside forces, the total momentum of set of objects remains the same no matter how the objects interact with one another
Law of conservation of momentum
A moving object tends to continue moving at constant speed along a straight path
Linear Momentum
A spinning body tends to continue to spin
Angular momentum
A measure of average kinetic energy in matter
Temperature
A device that measure temperature
Thermometer
Freezing point of water is 0 degree C and the boiling point of water is 100 degree C
Celsius
Freezing point of water is 32 degrees F and the boiling point of water is 212 Degrees F
Fahrenheit
Freezing point of water is 273 K and the boiling point of water is 373 K
Kelvin
The sum of the kinetic energy of all the separate particles that make up the body
Heat
Heat content of a body
Internal energy
the movement of heat through something
Conduction
The movement of heat which the warmer parts move up and colder parts move down
Convection
The movement of heat in the form of waves or ways
Radiation
A body of particles that can flow, be a liquid or gas.
Fluids
The ratio of the mass of an object to its volume
Density
The amount of force per unit of surface area
Pressure
The greater the depth the greater the pressure
Pressure and depth
The greater the elevation the lower pressure
Pressure and Elevation
the amount of space that matter fills because gases fill the space available the volume of a gas is the same as the volume of its container
Volume
The relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature
Boyle’s law
