How are force, work, power, and energy related??
|
transfer of energy is work, power is the rate at which energy is transferred,or the amount of energy transferred in one unit of time
|
|
2 kinds of Potential Energy:
|
-Gravitational PE
-Elastic PE |
|
6 types of energy:
|
mechanical~chemical~thermal~
nuclear~electrical~ electromagnetic |
|
Mechanical Energy
|
the Kinetic and Potential E of an object
|
|
Electrical Energy
|
Energy of electric charges
|
|
Chemical Energy
|
Potential energy stored in the chemical bonds in the chemical compounds of an object
|
|
Electromagnetic Energy
|
Energy transmitted in waves with electrical and magnetic properties
|
|
Nuclear Energy
|
Potential energy stored in the nucleus of an atom
|
|
Thermal Energy
|
the total kinetic and potential energy in the particles of an object
|
|
Energy Transformation
|
change from one form of energy to another
|
|
Law of Conservation of Energy(or mass)
|
During the transfer of energy, no energy can be created or destroyed
|
|
Energy Transfer for a match
|
mechanical~thermal(friction)~chemical~thermal~ electromagnetic
|
|
How can energy be created??
|
by desroying matter
|
|
fossil fuels
|
coal, petroleum, and natural gas; energy released through combustion
|
|
matter
|
anything that has mass and takes up space
|
|
3 types of matter:
|
solids, liquids, and gases
|
|
2 types of solids:
|
crystalline, and amorphous
|
|
particles in a solid are ...
|
a fixed, closely packed arrangement. solids have definate shape and volume
|
|
particles in a liquid are ...
|
free to move. a liquid has no definate shape, but has a definate volume
|
|
What is a fluid??
|
a substance that flows; liquid or gas
|
|
surface tension
|
result of an inward pull among the molecules on the surface of a liquid; causes skin like barrier on surface
|
|
viscosity
|
a liquids resistance to flowing; high viscosity-slow flowing, low viscosity-quick flowing
|
|
Particles in a gas ...
|
spread apart to fill all available space; have no definate volume or shape
|
|
Chemical Properties of matter
|
descirbes a pure substance's ability to change into different substances
|
|
Examples of chemical properties
|
flammability, tarnishability, rustability, react to other substances
|
|
Physical properties of matter
|
characteristic of a pure substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance
|
|
Examples of physical properties
|
physical state(liquid,solid,gas), texture, color, flexability, luster, ability to conduct heat and electricity, magnetic attraction
|
|
What are mixtures?
|
2 or more substances together but not chemically combined
|
|
2 types of mixtures:
|
heterogeneous and homogeneous
|
|
heterogeneous mixture
|
a mixture in which you can see the different parts
|
|
homogeneous mixture
|
mixed so evenly that different parts are not visable
|
|
ways of separating mixtures
|
magnetism, filteration, evaporation, distillation
|
|
What is volume??
|
the amount of space matter occupies(L*W*H)
|
|
What is density??
|
the mass of a material in a given volume
|
|
What is a physical change??
|
a change that alters the form or appearance of matter but does not chemically change the substance
|
|
What is a chemical change??
|
change in matter that produces 2 or more new substances
-ex.combustion, electrolysis, oxidation, tarnishing |
|
What does a chemical formula show??
|
the elements in a compound and the ratio of atoms
|
|
What is a chemical compound??
|
a pure substance made up of 2 or more elements chemically combined
|
|
What is the melting point??
|
specific temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid
|
|
What is the freezing point??
|
specific temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid
|
|
What is vaporization??
|
a substance's change from a liquid to a gas
|
|
What is evaporation??
|
vaporization occuring at the surface of a liquid
|
|
What is boiling??
|
vaporization occuring below the surface of a liquid
|
|
What is condensation??
|
a substance's change from a gas to a liquid
|
|
What is sublimation??
|
a substance's change from a solid directly to a gas
|
|
Boyle's Law
|
When the pressure of a gas at constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases, vise versa; varies inversely
|
|
Charles' Law
|
temperature of a gas is increased at constant pressure, its volume increases, vise versa; directly proportional
|
|
relationship btwn temperature and pressure
|
temperature of a gas at constant volume increases, the pressure of the gas increases, vise versa
|
|
x-axis
|
manipulated variable
|
|
y-axis
|
responding variable
|
|
Boyle's Law
|
pres. in., vol.in.
|
|
Charles' Law
|
temp. in., vol. in.
|
|
