Question 20

Velocity

Answer 20

How fast an object is moving

Question 21

Acceleration

Answer 21

Rate of change of speed per unit of time

Question 22

Work

Answer 22

Force applied on an object over a distance

Question 23

Power

Answer 23

Rate of doing work(measured in watts)

Question 24

Atomic nucleus

Answer 24

Contains protons (positive charges) and neutrons (no charge); contains most of the mass of an atom

Question 25

Atomic mass

Answer 25

Number of protons plus number of neutrons; represented by the letter A

Question 26

Electron shells

Answer 26

Contain orbital electrons (negative charges); represented by the letters K, L, M, N, O, P, and Q; in a stable atom; the number of electrons and protons is equal

Question 27

Atomic number of an Atom

Answer 27

Equals the number of protons in the nucleus; represented by the Z; the atomic number determine the chemical element; all chemical elements are represented in the periodic table of elements

Question 28

Isotopes

Answer 28

Atoms with the same number of protons but with a different number of neutrons

Question 29

Electron-binding energy

Answer 29

Force that holds electrons in orbit around the nucleus

Question 30

Octet rule

Answer 30

Outer shell of an of an atom may not contain more than eight electrons

Question 31

Particulate radiation

Answer 31

Alpha particles (helium nucleus -two protons and two neutrons); beta particles (electron like particles emitted from the nucleus of a radioactive Atom)

Question 32

Photon

Answer 32

Smallest amount of any type of electromagnetic radiation; also considered a bundle of energy, quantum; travels at the speed of light; travels in waves in a straight path

Question 33

Sine waves

Answer 33

Waves of electromagnetic radiation; wave height is called amplitude; distance between the peaks of waves is called wavelength; as photon wavelength decreases photon energy increases

Question 34

Frequency

Answer 34

Number of wavelengths passing a given point per unit time; measured in hertz (Hz)

Question 35
