Earch Science Section 2 A, B, C
Sound Energy
Energy caused by an object's vibrations
Deposition
Gas to solid without becoming a liquid first
Gravity
Gives things weight
Weight
Gravitational attraction for an objects mass
Thermal Energy
Heat energy
What are The States of Matter
Solid, liquid, gas, plasma
Energy
The ability to do work or cause change
Mass
The amount of matter in an object
Volume
The amount of space an object takes up
Kinetic Energy
energy of motion
When particles move faster, this means the substance is
hot; liquid, gas, plasma
Mixture
A combination of two or more substances that are not chemically combined
Temperature
A measure of how hot or cold something is.
Force
A push or a pull
Liquid
A state of matter that has no definite shape but has a definite volume; particles move fast
Gas
A state of matter with no definite shape or volume; particles move very fast
Plasma
Acts as a plasma, particles move so fast and collide so hard that they break apart and become electrically charged
Matter
Anything that occupies space and has mass
Solid
Definite shape and volume; particles move slowly
Pure Substances
Materials made of just one kind of particle
Evaporation
Occurs when liquid water changes into water vapor
Condensation
The change from a gas to a liquid
Sublimation
The process in which a solid changes directly into a gas
Freezing
The state of matter form a liquid to a solid
Melting
The state of matter from a solid to a liquid
What is a World View?
The understanding of the nature and characteristics of the world God created
Dark Matter
Unseen and unidentified matter that provides the mass needed to pull things together.
3 ways to measure matter
Weight, volume, mass
When particles move slowly, this means the substance is
solid; cold
Potential Energy
stored energy
