Physical Science Flashcards
Convection
The transfer of heat through gases and liquids
Conduction
The transfer of heat when two objects are touching
Radiation
The transfer of heat trough electromagnetic waves
Physical property
It is a property that does not change the chemical nature of matter
Physical change
A change when the looks of substance does not change
Chemical property
Are properties that are only observable during a chemical reaction
Chemical change
It is when substances combine to form a new substance
Speed
The formula for speed is distance/time
Friction
Friction is a force between two surfaces that are sliding, or trying to slide across each other
Newtons 1st law
An object wi stay in rest until an outside force acts on it, this is called inertia
Newtons 2nd law
When two forces of an object is balanced, the object does not move. When forces are unbalanced they move
Newtons 3rd law
For every action is an equal or opposite reaction
