- 2-LIVING MATTER
-
PHYSICAL SCIENCE IS THE STUDY OF
NONLIVING MATTER
-
BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE IS THE STUDY OF
LIVING MATTER
-
MASS
IS THE QUANITY OF MATTER CONTAINED IN AN OBJECT
-
WEIGHT
IS THE FORCE IN WHICH AN OBJECT EXERTS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF GRAVITY
-
SUBSTANCE
IS A MATERIAL THAT HAS A DIFINITE AND CONSTANT COMPOSITION
-
MIXTURE
IS WHEN TWO OR MORE SUBSTANCES ARE COMBINED
-
SUBSTANCES CAN EITHER BE WHAT (TWO) THINGS?
1-SIMPLE, OR 2-COMPLEX
-
SIMPLE SUBSTANCES ARE KNOWN AS?
ELEMENTS
-
COMPLEX SUBSTANCES ARE KNOWN AS?
COMPOUNDS
-
ELEMENT IS?
A SUBSTANCE THAT CANNOT BE BROKEN DOWN INTO ANY SIMPLER SUBSTANCES BY ORDINARY MEANS
-
ATOM IS?
THE SMALLEST PARTICLE OF AN ELEMENT THAT STILL POSSESSES THE CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF THAT ELEMENT
-
MOLECULE IS?
IS THE SMALLEST PARTICLE OF A COMPOUND THAT STILL POSSESSES THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE COMPOUND
-
RADIATION
IS WHEN ENERGY IS EMITTED AND TRANSFERRED THROUGH MATTER
-
RADIATION IS A TERM APPLIED TO MANY FORMS OF ENERGY, SUCH AS?
HEAT OR LIGHT
-
WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MATTER AND ENERGY?
THEY ARE INTERCHANGEABLE:::EINSTEIN DESCRIBES THE RELATINSHIP IN AN EQUATION---- E=mc2----E=ENERGY, M=MASS, C=CONSTANT(THE SPEED OF LIGHT IN A VACUUM)
-
ATOMS CAN BE SUBDIVIDED INTO WHAT THREE BASIC SUBATOMIC PARTICLES?
PROTONS, NEUTRONS, & ELECTRONS
-
NUCLEUS
SMALL DENSE CENTER OF THE ATOM
-
NUCLEONS
REFERRED TO AS PROTONS AND NEUTRONS TOGETHER
-
QUARKS
SMALLER SUBNUCLEAR STRUCTURES OF PROTONS AND NEUTRONS
-
M THEORY
OVERALL CONCEPT OF THE QUARKS
-
STRING THEORY
ELECTRONS AND QUARKS MAY NOT BE PARTICLES, BUT EXTREMELY SMALL LOOPS OF RAPIDLY VIBRATING STRING-LIKE MATTER
