Big concepts Flashcards
8 science practices: Asking, Developing, Planning, Analyzing, Using, Constructing, Engaging, Obtaining
Asking questions, Developing and using models, Planning and carry out investigation, Analyzing data, Using mathematics, Constructing an explanation, Engaging in argument, Obtaining and Evaluating information
Four main ideas of physical science: S&T, M&C, F&M, E
Space and Time, Matter and Change, Forces and Motion, Energy
1st law of thermodynamics: energy
energy cannot be created or destroyed it just changes form
2nd law of thermodynamics: energy/things
go from order to disorder unless work is done
3rd law of thermodynamics: absolute
absolute zero cannot be reached
Law of conservation of momentum : if no net
if no net force acts on a system then energy is conserved
Four of five states of matter: S,L,G,P
Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma
Newton’s 1st law of motion: An object
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless a force acts upon it
Newton’s 2nd law of motion: force equals(F=MA)
Force equals mass times acceleration
Newton’s 3rd law of motion: For every
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
Law of conservation of matter: Matter
Matter cannot be created or destroyed it just changes form
Law of conservation of mass and energy: (E=mc^2) Energy equals
Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared
Difference between law and theory
A law has been tested over and over, a theory connects many laws and creates an explanation
Opposite charges
attract
Like charges
repel
