| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Mechanical Energy | movement energy - moving parts |
| Thermal Energy | HEAT energy |
| Electrical Energy | energy from moving ELECTRONS |
| Light Energy | light energy we can see |
| Sound Energy | Vibrations in the air that we can HEAR |
| Insoluble means - | CANNOT dissolve |
| Soluble means - | CAN dissolve |
| Substances that are MORE dense than water | ALL syrups, sugar, sand |
| Substances that are LESS dense than water | rubbing alcohol, ALL oils |
| Plants receive energy from? | the sun (light energy) |
| Relative Density is - | whether an object sinks or floats in water |
| Physical State is - | whether an object is a solid, liquid or gas |
| Magnetism is - | whether an object is magnetic or non-magnetic |
| Conductivity is - | whether an object is a conductor or insulator |
| Solubility is - | whether a substance will dissolve in water |
| Inherited traits are - | traits that an organism is BORN with (inherits from parents) |
| Learned traits are - | behaviors or features that are learned or acquired during the organisms life |
| Substances that are soluble - | sugar, salt, powdered drink mix, baking soda, powdered paint |
| Substance that are insoluble - | oils, sand, gravel, styrofoam |
| Reflection is - | the bouncing of light off of a surface |
| Refraction is - | the BENDING of light as it passes from one medium into another (like from air to water) |
| You are able to see yourself in a mirror because - | the smooth surface reflects light |
| Maintain original properties means - | the ingredients DO NOT change when mixed - everything looks the same |
| Change original properties means - | the ingredients CHANGE after being mixed |
| Why does a pencil appear to be broken when placed in water? | refraction bends light which causes the pencil to appear bent or broken |
| How does light travel? | Light travels in STRAIGHT LINES |
| Objects that REFLECT - | smooth, shiny surfaces (mirrors, metals, windows, still water) |
| Objects that REFRACT - | lenses (projectors, microscopes, cameras, magnifying glass), water, prisms |
