Laws Science- RTI Flashcards
What law states that mass and acceleration are an inverse proportion while force is directly proportional to both mass and acceleration? This law is defined by F=ma
Newton’s second law of motion
What law states that the velocity of a body remains unchanged until an outside force acts upon it?
Newton’s first law of motion
What law states that to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction or that when two bodies act on each other with equal forces in opposite directions?
Newton’s third law of motion
What law states that if two systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third system, then they are in thermal equilibrium with each other?
Zeroth law of Thermodynamics
What law illustrates tye existence of entropy, stating that different processes have cause and effects? This law provides an arrow for time.
Second law of thermodynamics
What law stated that it is impossible to cool a system to absolute zero?
Third law of thermodynamics
What law states that orbits take the form of an ellipse with the central body at one of the foci?
Keepers first law of planetary motion
What law states that a line connecting an orbiting body to the body it orbits will sweep out equal areas over equal intervals of time beginning at any point in the body’s orbits?
Kelper’s second law if planetary motion
What law states that the combined amount or mass and energy in a system remains constant due to the equivalence of the two?
Conservation of mass and energy
What law states that the force created between two charges and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart?
Coulomb’s Law
What law stated that there exists a directly proportional relationship between the electric flux of a closed system and the enclosed electric charge?
Gauss’s Law
What law states that in two ideal gases with the same temperature, pressure, and volume, each gas contains the same number of molecules?
Avogadro’s law
What law states that an ideal gas’s volume and pressure are inversely proportional when kept at a constant temperature?
Boyle’s law
What law states that an ideal gas has a temperature and volume in direct proportion when a constant pressure is maintained?
Charles’ law
What law can be stated as the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the gas’s absolute temperature when the mass abs volume of the gas is kept fixed?
Gay-Lussac’s Law
