Physics 1 Flashcards
What is the process called if a solid is turned into a liquid
The process called if a solid is turned into a liquid is called MELTING
What is the process called if a solid is turned into a gas
The process if a solid is turned into a liquid is called SUBLIMATION
What is a description of Specific Heat Capacity (SHC)
The specific heat capacity is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of the substance by 1 degree celcius
What is energy measured in
Energy is measured in Joules or Kilojoules
What is the process called if energy is added to a substance but the temperature stays the same
Latent heat of fusion or Latent heat of vaporisation
How do you calculate pressure
PRESSURE=FORCE/AREA
How can you increase the pressure of an object containing gas
INJECTING MORE GAS (PARTICLES) OR TO INCREASE THE HEAT OF THE CONTAINER
What does Pressure*volume equal
CONSTANT
If the energy is 200000 Joules how many kilojules is the energy
200kj
In which are the particles closer together Gas or a liquid
LIQUID
Why does an gas/liquid/solid lose temperature
By the particles losing energy
Are particles soft or hard
HARD
Can particles be squashed
NO
Can particles be stretched
NO
Does the sizes of particles differ from object to object
YES there are different types of particles
What is the process called if you are turning a gas to a liquid
The process called if you are turning an gas to a liquid is called CONDENSING
(CONDENSATION)
Which unit is used to measure mass
KG (Kilograms)
What does DESSU stand for
D=Data
E=Equation
S=Substitude
S=Solve
U=Unit
Can energy be destroyed
No just moved
What is the equation for speed
Speed=Distance/Time
What are the strong forces of attraction called
The strong forces of attraction are called BONDS
Does particles move fast
Particles move very fast
What is the equation for Density
Density=Mass(Kg)/Volume( 3
M)
What is needed to break bonds
ENERGY is needed to break bonds
