25
similarities between solids, liquids and gases
- solids and liquids have fixed volumes and cannot be compressed. - liquids and gases aren't rigid and have no fixed shape.
26
properties of metals
high melting and boiling points, good conductors of heat and electricity, high density, malleable, ductile, shiny
27
properties of non-metals
low melting and boiling points, poor conductors of heat and electricity, not malleable, not ductile, dull
28
hooke's law
The extension of a spring is directly proportional to the force applied
29
how was the solar system formed?
- 4.6 billion years ago a nebula collapsed under its own gravity. - As it did, it became denser and began to spin more rapidly. - This led to nuclear fusion between the debris which formed planets.
30
what are seasons and why do we experience them?
The Earth's axis is tilted 23.4 degrees from vertical, meaning that as it orbits the sun, the northern hemisphere is either tilted towards the sun (summer) or away from the sun (winter). Wen it is summer in the northern hemisphere, it is winter in the southern hemisphere.
31
repeatability
the same person using the same method
32
reproducibility
a different person using a different method
