White Set Cheat Sheet Words 31 to 40 Flashcards
__________________________ took place in the 16th and 17th centuries and was led by figures such as Francis Bacon, who
employed the Scientific Method as a way to formally study nature, and by physicists such as Isaac Newton and Galileo.”
“The Scientific Revolution
Carmichael numbers don’t have this property but satisfy Fermat’s test for it. Eratosthenes names a sieve to find numbers with this property. The “twin” variety of these numbers differ by two. The factorization of natural numbers into these kind of numbers is guaranteed by the fundamental theorem of arithmetic. For the point, name this kind of number that has exactly two divisors, itself and one.
Prime numbers
__________are subatomic particles that contain a positive charge. They are found in the nucleus of an atom, along with the neutrally-charged neutron.”
Protons
Though these particles are theorized to decay, this has not been confirmed by any observations yet. Two of these particles form a chain reaction responsible for fusion in stars. This particle is composed of two up quarks and one down quark. This particle is equivalent to the H+ ion, which is formed when acids are added to water. For the point, name this positively-charged particle contrasted with the neutron and electron.
Protons
Early developments of a theory of this structure include Democritus’s concept of them as geometric shapes with attributes. Some Greek thinkers believed a “swerve” of these things gave rise to free will. J.J. Thomson proposed the plum pudding model of this structure after his discovery of one of its components. For the point, name this structure once believed to be “indivisible,” consisting of electrons orbiting a proton-neutron nucleus.
Atom
J. J. Thomson’s plum pudding model and Niels Bohr’s planetary model were based on early ideas regarding the structure of an ________
Atom
The ___________________ was an American-led collaborative effort to develop the atomic bomb during World War II
Manhattan Project
______________ are values found on an infinite number line. ___________ include all rational and irrational numbers
Real number
A_________ is a subatomic particle that has a particle spin equal to an integer.
Boson
______________ are whole numbers greater than 1 that cannot be divided by any whole number other than itself and 1. The numbers 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11 are prime numbers.”
“Prime numbers
The ___________of a set of numbers is calculated by dividing the sum of all numbers in the set with the number of values
Average
Every natural number greater than 1 can be factored into these numbers according to the fundamental theorem of arithmetic. If two numbers have a greatest common factor of 1, they are said to be “co-” this property. 2 is the only even number with this property, and they are contrasted with composite numbers. For the point, name these numbers whose only factors are one and themselves.
“Prime numbers
“Under the Georgi-Glashow model, this letter designates ________responsible for proton decay. A satellite communications spectrum band named for this letter falls between eight and twelve gigahertz. This letter can represent any halogen in organic chemistry reactions, and the genes causing hemophilia and colorblindness are carried on a chromosome of this letter. Wilhelm Röntgen [[RENT-gun]] could view bones using rays labeled with, for the point, what letter which resembles the multiplication sign?
X Boson
The finding that this particle’s constituents contribute almost no spin has led to its namesake “spin crisis.” Some Grand Unified Theories hypothesize that this particle can decay into a positron and a neutral pion. Cosmic rays consist mostly of these particles, which are made of two up quarks and one down quark. For the point, name this subatomic particle with a positive charge.
Protons
The ______________ traveling in a vacuum is equal to 299,792,458 meters per second.
Speed of light
