Chapter 1 HS Flashcards
3 main steps of scientific method
Observing, hypothesizing, experimenting
Four limitations of science
The scope of science is limited to the study of created matter and energy in the present
Science relies on assumptions
Human nature often leads one to see and believe what he wants to be true not necessarily what’s true
Science can only provide approx descriptions of how the world works
The main difference between physical properties and chemical properties
Physical-can change without changing the type of matter
Chemical- describe how a substance changes when reacting with other substances
Compare and contrast mass and weight
Mass-the amount of matter in an object or the amount of inertia an object has
Weight- the amount of gravitational pull on an object
What are two requirements that the predictions of a hypothesis must meet for the hypothesis must meet for the hypothesis to be proved?
Test ability and repeatability
Explain two main reasons Christians should study science use scripture
To lead a man to glorify God. As we consider the wonders of the universe we should realize that the God of the universe is infinitely more wonderful than his creation Psalms 8
To use scientific knowledge for mans benefit god gave mankind the authority and respinsibilty to subdue and have domjnion over creation genesis 1:28
Density
How much mass particular volume
Plasma
High temp, high pressure
Heat
Motion
Chemistry
Study of compositions and interactions of matter
Physics
The study of interactions between matter and energy
The null hypothesis
Prove the hypothesis wrong, these are good. This is how u tell people if you want to prove me wrong here’s how. U must have one with your hypothesis

Inertia
Resistnece to change in motion all mass has it. Ex: when your in a car and you make a quick turn and you bump into the door
Gravity
Force that pulls like tug of war
