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 |
