Across
- 1. a temperature scale that defines the freezing point of water as 0 degrees and the boiling point of water as 100 degrees
- 5. analysis using the fact that physical quantities added to or equated with each other must be expressed in terms of the same fundamental quantities such as mass, length, or time
- 9. a measure of how close a measurement comes to the actual value of whatever is measured
- 10. scale of temperature with absolute zero as zero, and the triple point of water as exactly 273.16 degrees
- 11. the lowest possible temperature, at which point the atoms of a substance transmit no thermal energy - they are completely at rest
- 12. an arithmetical multiplier for converting a quantity expressed in one set of units into an equivalent expressed in another
- 14. value the value of a substance's properties found in a localized lab
Down
- 2. digits that carry meaning contributing to its precision. This includes all digits except All leading zeros Trailing zeros when they are merely placeholders to indicate the scale of the number
- 3. The difference between Approximate and Exact Values
- 4. the SI unit of work or energy, equal to the work done by a force of one newton when its point of application moves one meter in the direction of action of the force
- 6. discrepancy between a computed, observed, or measured value or condition and the true, specified, or theoretically correct value or condition
- 7. a given number written as the product of two numbers a coefficient and 10 raised to power
- 8. the correct value based on reliable refrences
- 13. a measure of how close a series of measurements are to one
