Paleoliths

31
Q

They made use of stone tools known as ________, the Mesolithic Period

Microliths

32
Q

This age started when tools were widely made with copper or bronze.

A

Bronze Age (3000BC-1200BC)

33
Q

This age included those materials made of iron. This began when smelting pits made of sufficient advancement to produce higher temperatures that could smelt iron ore.

A

Iron Age (1500BC - 450AD)

34
Q

In this age smelting was originally done with copper, a soft metal. However, it was discovered by Sumerians that a harder and stronger one could be made by blending copper and tin. This knowledge began in Southwest Asia and slowly radiated in different parts of the world.

A

Bronze Age (3000BC-1200BC)

35
Q

This was achieved through metal extraction from ore (a process known as ________) and melting and pouring it into a mold for shaping.

A

Smelting

36
Q

This age was age was subdivided into two smaller ages, Dark and high middle.

A

Seismograph

41
Q

This model describes the sun as the center of the universe and says that all the planets revolve around it in circles. This also suggests that the distance from the Sun determines the arrangement of planets.

A

Heliocentric Model

42
Q

He proposed the heliocentric model

A

Nicholas Copernicus

43
Q

Before the idea of Copernicus, people believed in __________, an earth-centered belief, which was supported by Ptolemy. Ptolemy had this idea because of Aristotle’s four-element theory

A

Geocentrism

44
Q

This states that all planets revolve around the sun in an elliptical, not a circular orbit, and that closer planets to the sun move faster than the others

A

Law of Planetary Motion

45
Q

Who formulated the Law of Planetary Motion

A

Johannes Kepler

46
Q

This involves the discovery of the relations among distance, velocity, and acceleration using a new scientific approach.

A

Work of Motion

47
Q

He introduced the Work of Motion

A

Galileo Galilei

48
Q

This law states that a particle in the universe attracts every other universal particle using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely to the square of the distance between their centers.

A

Law of Universal Gravitation

49
Q

He presented his three laws of motion

A

Isaac Newton

50
Q

What are the Three Law of Motion by Isaac Newton

A

Law of Inertia
Law of Acceleration
Law of Interaction

51
Q

It states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

A

Law of Inertia

52
Q

It states that acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass.

A

Law of Acceleration

53
Q

This states that for every action, there is an equal and an opposite reaction.

A

Law of Interaction

54
Q

It’s also known as the 2nd law of motion
