word
Definition
acceleration   change in velocity divided by the amount of time needed for the change to take place  
🗑
balanced force   describes forces that are equal but opposite in direction  
🗑
chemical energy   by the law of the convertion of energy, it must under go a change equal and oppsite to the change of heat energy in a reaction  
🗑
displacement   measures the distance and direction from a strating point to a ending point  
🗑
distance   the extent of space between two objects or places  
🗑
electriacl energy   energy made avaliable by the flow through conductors  
🗑
electromagnetic waves   transverse wave that can travel through matter or space and are produced by motion of electrically charged particals  
🗑
force   a push or pull  
🗑
friction   any force that resiets motion  
🗑
gravity   the natural force of attraction exerted by a celestial body or natural force of attraction between any two massive bodies  
🗑
kinetic energy   the energy an object has becuase of its motion  
🗑
mechanical wave   a type of wave that can only travel through matter  
🗑
newton's 1st law   evry object moves in a straight line unless acted upon by a force  
🗑
newton's 2nd law   the acceleration ogf an object is directly proportional to the net force exerted and inversely porportional to the object's mass  
🗑
newton's 3rd law   for every action there is a equal and oppsite reaction  
🗑
potentional energy   the energy of a particale or system of particals derived from position, or condtion, rather than motion  
🗑
speed   distance traveled divided by the time needed to travel that distance  
🗑
thermal energy   energy which is charateristic for thermal neutrons at room temperature  
🗑
unbalanced force   describes unequal forces acting on an object  
🗑
velocity   speed and direction of a moving body  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
