| Physical science , normally called physics is the study of the realtionship between matter and enrgy in all its forms The most fundamental aspects of physics is that of mechanicswhich is the study of how physical objects move and and the forces in play | against them Mechanial Comptrehension discuss the feild of mechanics of mechanis in depth. |
| Mechnical Motion the terms work energy and power are commonly used in our language and | mean differnet things various contexts In science however each has a precise quantifiable meaning |
| Work the product of an object displacement distance moved in the direction of a given force and the force used to move the object Th Si unit force is the Newton N and work is measured by Joule J | work also quantfied by the foot pound ft lb. Regardless of the unit of measurement the equation for work if work=force*distance or W=fd |
| Energy the ability in use or to do work. The SI unit of work is the Joule J | Although energy comes in many different forms such as chemical electrical and nuclear energy as related to mechanical energy there are two types. |
| Kinetic energy | Energy in ujse or motion when you swing a hammar and strike a nail, the resulting work is done by kinetic energy |
| Potential energy | stored energy resulting is an object's position, configuration or lack of motion A ball lying on the ground has potential energy, whereas a ball in midflight is exercising kinetic energy |
| Power | The rate which work is done The Si of power is the Watt W or ft Lb The equation for power is power= work/time or P=w/t |
| speed | A scalar specifies quantity only with no information on direction expression of distance traveled per unit of time |
| Velocity | A vector specifies quantity and direction information expression traveled called displacement per unit of time |
| Acceleration | A change in the velocity of an object over the amount of time required to make that change |
| Force | The push or pull that imparts motion on an object |
| MAss A measure of the quantity of matter contained in an object. Mass is a constant value regardless of the effects of gravity acting upon it | Not to be confused with weight which considers the effects of grauty acting on an objects mass. For example due to the weaker gravitational pull of the moon,a person would weigh less on the moon than earth whereas that person's mass would remain constant |
| Thermal energy or what we call heat is the energy created by the movement of a substance's molecules. Heat flows froma asubstance that is hot to cooler substance with which it comes into contact The SI unit measurement for heat is the calorie. | Three ways that thermal enery is transferred are Convection, Conduction, Radiation |
| Convection | Heat transfer occurs because of movemetn caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefor less dense substances to displace colder denser material |
| Conduction | Heat is directly transmitted through a substance without movement of the material when there is a temperature difference between adjoining regions |
| Radiation Heat transfer occurs through the emission of electromagnetic waves which stimulates molercular activity | Therefore, the thermal transfer requires neither direct contact between the two media nor a connecting medium. This is best seen when considering how the sun heats Earth via radiation across the vacuum of space |
| Sound energy sound both audible and inaudible travels in regular measurable waves from the source. In physics waves are disturbances that move progressivel through a medium | in a given direction with repeating peaks and valleys of motion |
| Waves | are specified by measuring their wavelength |
| Frequency | The measurment between sound waves usually specified as the number of complete cycles per secon Frequency is measured in hertz and normal human audible sound is 16Hz-16kHz |
| Amplitude | The value of the maximum height of the wavelength above the mean value of the wave It represents the strength of the singal at any instance |
| Wavelength | The distance between corresponding points on adjacent cycles |
| The Doppler Effect | is generated by a moving source or detected by a moving observer. In the case of sound waves when a listener hears a noise source approaching its frequency appears to increase the closer it gets The moment the noise source passed its nearest point |
| Refraction The bending of light when it passes from one medium such as air intoanother | such as the glass of a prism different wavelengths of ligt bend at differnt angles |
| Reflection The bouncing back of light rays toward their source when they hit a surface | The angle at which light strikes a surface called the angle of incidence is equal to the angle at which it is reflected |
| Magnetism is the study of magnets their properties and their effects on other materials | Magnets attract iro steel and ither materials with iron metals alloys with iron content are called ferrous metals |
| The life natural sciences include biology anatomy and physiology and ecology these are the study of living organisms and their interactions. | Beginning with biology you will review the basic system of classifying organisma according to type. |
| Biology is the study of life and living things called organism | All organisms go through a process of creation development reproduction death and decomposition Organisms consume energy and resources throughout their lifespan and ultimately recycle their components back into nature |
| Taxonomy the enormous job | of classifying or organizing into groups all living things called taxonomy took its currently accepted from in the eighteenth cetury and is known as the Linnaean System |

| Meiosis | A specialized two step process leading to the production of sex cells on e parent cell produces four daughter or son cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell |
| Musculoskeletal system The skeleton | is made up of bones which provide strenght protect the internal organs and produce blood cells Muscles attach to the sekelton allowing the body to move and perform vital functions |
| Nervous system Nerve cells called neurons are located all over the human body they receive stimuli from the surrounding environment and transmit those stimuli to the brain in the form | of electrical impulses the brain process this input and controls the body's response |
| Endocrine system | The endocrine system controls the body through a release of hormones which are produced in the endocrine glands and release into the blood stream specific hormones target specific organs orr process and affect only them |
