what are the two rules of speed in the kinetic theory of matter?
|
1. higher temp, faster particles
2. same temp, more massive particles- slower less massive-faster |
|
the nonsolid state of matter in which the atoms or molecules are free to move or flow past each other, as in a gas or liquid
|
fluid
|
|
a state of matter that consists of free moving ions and electrons
|
plasma
|
|
electrically charged
|
ionized
|
|
the capacity to do work
|
energy
|
|
energy of motion; average temp
|
kinetic energy
|
|
a measure of how hot or cold something is; specifically, a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object
|
temperature
|
|
the total kinetic energy of a substance's atoms
|
thermal energy
|
|
liquid --> gas
|
evaporation
|
|
solid --> gas
|
sublimation
|
|
gas --> liquid
|
condensation
|
|
solid --> liquid
|
melting
|
|
liquid --> solid
|
freezing
|
|
mass cant be created or destoyed
|
law of conservation of mass
|
|
energy cant be created or destoyed
|
law of conservation of energy
|
|
amount of force exerted per unit area of a surface
|
pressure
|
|
the SI unit of pressure; equal to the force of 1 N exerted over an area of 1m^2 (symbol, Pa)
|
pascal
|
|
the upward force that keeps an object immersed in or floating on a fluid
|
buoyant force
|
|
the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is an upward force equal to the weight of the fluid that the object displaces
(buoyant force= weight of displaced water) |
archimedes principle
|
|
a change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid will be transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid
(pressure changes--> equally given to all parts) |
pascals principle
|
|
use liquids to transmit pressure from one point to another
|
hydraulic devices
|
|
the resistance of a gas or liquid to flow
|
viscosity
|
|
as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the pressure of the moving fluid decreases
(higher speed-->less pressure) |
bernoullis principle
|
