| Archimedes Principle | an object is immersed in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. |
| Amorphous | solid with a random jumbled arrangement of atoms |
| Bernoulli's Principle | the velocity of a fluid increases, the pressure exerted by that fluid decreases. |
| Brittleness | Tendency of a material to fracture or fail upon the application of a relatively small amount of force, impact, or shock. |
| Buoyant | the measure of the upward force that a fluid excerts on an object that is sermged |
| Crystalline | solid with a regular ordilly of atoms |
| Density | mass of matter per unit volume |
| Ductility | the ability to bend without breaking |
| Elasticity | the ability to be stretched or compressed and then returned to original size |
| Fluid | the form of matter that flows when a force is aplliade |
| Malleability | Capable of being shaped or formed |
| Pressure | a force apllaide to a fluid pressure acts in all directions |
| Specific Heat | the amount of heat needed to raise the temp. of one kilogram of a material by one degree celcuis |
| Strength | the ability to maintain shape under the application of force |
