measure of the average kinetic energy of all particles in an object

28
Q

An example of Temperature used in Kinetic energy is?

the total potential and kinetic energies of an object

33
Q

the temperature of an object stops when it reaches its melting point, but?

A

the temperature doesn’t change, though there is still a change in energy

34
Q

once a solid reaches its melting point, the average speed of particles does not change, but?

A

the distance of particles does change

35
Q

Vaporization

A

the change of state of a liquid to a gas

Q

boiling

A

vapor that occurs within the entire liquid

Q

type of pattern in a diamond

Q

when particles collide,?

no energy is lost

44
Q

Pressure

A

the amount of force applied per unit of area

45
Q

unit of measure for pressure

A

pascal

46
Q

Boyle’s law

A

states that pressure of a gas increases if the volume decreases and pressure of a gas decreases if volume increases. (when temperature is constant)

47
Q

Best example to describe Boyle’s law

A

ears popping on an airplane

48
Q

Charles’s Law

A

states that the volume of a gas increases with increasing temperature, if the pressure is constant

49
Q

best example to describe Charles’s law

A

taking a balloon outside on a cold winter day, and it apperaing deflated
