Matter - Answers-Anything that takes up space. Can change from one state to another.
Made up of Elements or Compounds.
states of matter - Answers-solid, liquid, gas
Weight - Answers-A measure of the force of gravity acting on an object
Gravity - Answers-Force that attracts an object towards the center of the earth
Solid - Answers-state of matter with a definite shape and volume
liquid - Answers-A state of matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape.
Gas - Answers-A state of matter with no definite shape or volume
Volume - Answers-the amount of space an object occupies
Mass - Answers-the amount of matter in an object
Density - Answers-Amount or quantity of mass per unit volume
Force - Answers-The total pressure acting upon an object
Pressure - Answers-Force per unit area measured in PSI
Types of Pressure - Answers-Static Pressure
Impact Pressure
, Relative Pressure
Absolute Pressure
Static Pressure - Answers-Pressure in a confined space or not causing motion
Impact Pressure - Answers-pressure caused by motion
Relative Pressure - Answers-One pressure in relation to another
Absolute Pressure - Answers-Sum of the Atmospheric Pressure and System pressure
starting from a theoretical vacuum
Pascal's Law - Answers-Pressure applied to enclosed or confined fluid is transmitted
equally in all directions without loss, and acts with equal force on all surfaces.
Bernoulli's Principle - Answers-States whenever a stream of any fluid has it's velocity
increase at a given point the pressure of the stream at that given point is less than the
rest of the stream.
Divergent Venturi tube - Answers-Decrease velocity and increase pressure
Convergent Venturi tube - Answers-increase velocity and decrease pressure
Boyle's Law - Answers-States the volume of a given mass of a gas varies inversely with
pressure when temperature is constant
Charles' Law - Answers-States if the volume of a confined gas is constant the pressure
is directly proportional to the absolute temperature or if the pressure is unchanged the
volume is proportional to the temperature
Newtons Laws of Motion - Answers-Law of interia
Law of Force and Acceleration
Law of Interaction
Law of Interia - Answers-Newtons first Law
States a mass at rest will stay at rest while a mass in motion will stay in motion until
acted upon by an outside force.
Law of force and acceleration - Answers-Newtons Second Law
When a body is acted upon by a constant force the acceleration is inversely proportional
to it's mass
F=ma
Law of Interaction - Answers-Newtons 3rd Law
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
