  • what is distance and what magnitude does it belong to
    space between two objects, is a scalar quantity.
  • who investigated the movements of bodies and developed mathematical laws who, describing their movement, made a guess? 3 scientists
    Early scientists such as Galileo Galilee (1564– 1642), Isaac Newton (1642–1727), and Johannes Kepler (1571–1630)
  • Adiabatic heating
    The increase in temperature of compressed gas that involves no additional heat flowing into the gas. It is heating from the energy gained by compression
  • Atom
    The smallest unit of an element that can exist alone or in combination with other elements
  • Hypothesis
    A tentative explanation of a phenomenon that is compatible with the data and provides a framework for understanding and describing that phenomenon
  • difference between of speed and velocity
    The quantity speed, which refers to the rate of change in position of an object, is a scalar quantity because no direction of travel is defined. The quantity ve
  • what is Kinematics
    s a specific branch of mechanics  that describes the motion of objects without reference to the forces causing the motion.
  • what is Mechanics
    s the branch of physics that studies the motion of objects and the forces and energies that affect those motions.
  • Absolute scale
    Temperature scale set so that zero is at the theoretical lowest temperature possible. This would occur when all random motion of molecules has ceased
  • Dispersion
    The effect of spreading colors of light into a spectrum with a material that has an index of refraction that varies with wavelength
