Questions with Expertly written solution
2024/2025
Mass - correct answer the amount of matter in an object
Inertia - correct answer The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion
Newton's Second Law - correct answer Force equals mass times acceleration
Newton's Third Law - correct answer For every action there is an equal and opposite
reaction
Friction - correct answer A force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in
contact
Gravity - correct answer Gravity is the force by which a planet or other body draws
objects toward its center. The force of gravity keeps all of the planets in orbit around the
sun.
gravitational force - correct answer an attractive force that acts between any two
objects
Momentum - correct answer the force or speed with which something moves
law of conservation of momentum - correct answer One of the most powerful laws in
physics is the law of momentum conservation. ... For a collision occurring between
object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects
before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.
,work - correct answer Force exerted on an object that causes it to move
Energy - correct answer the ability to do work
potential energy - correct answer Energy that is stored and held in readiness
kinetic energy - correct answer the energy an object has due to its motion
gravitational potential energy - correct answer Energy stored by objects due to their
position above Earth's surface.
chemical potential energy - correct answer the energy stored in the chemical bonds of
a substance
elastic potential energy - correct answer the energy of stretched or compressed
objects
electrical energy - correct answer The energy of electric charges
electromagnetic energy - correct answer Electromagnetic energy is a term used to
describe all the different kinds of energies released into space by stars such as the Sun.
These kinds of energies include some that you will recognize and some that will sound
strange
thermal energy - correct answer Heat energy
Law of Conservation of Energy - correct answer the law that states that energy cannot
be created or destroyed but can be changed from one form to another
wave - correct answer A disturbance that transfers energy from place to place
, oscillation - correct answer the act or state of swinging back and forth with a steady,
uninterrupted rhythm
Equilibrium - correct answer A state of balance
medium - correct answer The material through which a wave travels is called a
Gases (air), liquids, solids
mechanical wave - correct answer A wave that requires a medium through which to
travel
electromagnetic waves - correct answer A form of energy that can move through the
vacuum of space.
transverse wave - correct answer A wave that moves the medium in a direction
perpendicular to the direction in which the wave travels
longitudinal wave - correct answer A wave in which the vibration of the medium is
parallel to the direction the wave travels. Compressed
Compression - correct answer The part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of
the medium are close together.
expansion - correct answer an increase in the volume of a substance while its mass
remains the same. Expansion is usually due to heating. When substances are heated,
the molecular bonds between their particles are weakened, and the particles move
faster, causing the substance to expand.
Rarefaction - correct answer The part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the
medium are far apart
Wavelength - correct answer The distance between two corresponding parts of a wave
