  1. 4. radiation - Invisible radiation in the part of the electromagnetic spectrum characterized by wavelengths just longer than those of ordinary visible red light and shorter than those of microwaves or radio waves.
  2. 7. inquiry – the many ways in which scientists study the natural world and propose explanations based on the evidence they gather.
  3. 8. - a unit of energy equivalent to the heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 °C (now often defined as equal to 4.1868 joules).
  4. 10. – the facts, figures, and other evidence gathered through observations.
  5. 12. - deduce or conclude (information) from evidence and reasoning rather than from explicit statements.
  6. 13. - a way of learning about the natural world.
  7. 14. - heat transfer or movement between things that are touching.
  8. 15. – one of the factors that can change in an experiment.
  9. 16. - to make something different, alter or modify.
  10. 17. Thermal Unit (Btu) - the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of liquid water by 1 degree Fahrenheit at the temperature that water has its greatest density (approximately 39 degrees Fahrenheit).
  11. 18. variable (dependent variable) – the variable that changes because of the manipulated variable.
  12. 21. – making a forecast of what will happen in the future based on past experience or evidence.
  13. 25. - the quality, state, or degree of being stable: such as a resistance to change.
  14. 27. - heat transfer or movement within a fluid, such as liquid or air.
  15. 28. - what makes up everything in the universe.
  16. 31. - a group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.
  17. 32. - an instance of one moving object or person striking violently against another.
  18. 33. – materials with low electron mobility.
  19. 41. experiment – a test of a hypothesis under conditions established by the scientist.
  20. 42. – the average amount of energy of motion of each molecule of a substance.
  21. 44. - the action of a force against an opposing force.
  22. 45. - symbol K, is the primary unit of temperature in the International System of Units, used alongside its prefixed forms and the degree Celsius. K − 273.15 = °C ; (K − 273.15) × 9/5 + 32 = °F.
  23. 46. - the capacity for doing work.

  1. 1. - heat transfer through empty space not requiring a medium.
  2. 2. - an instrument used to measure temperature.
  3. 3. energy - Kinetic energy is a form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion.
  4. 5. - using one or more of your senses to gather information.
  5. 6. - the scale of temperature on which water freezes at 32° and boils at 212° under standard conditions. The conversion formula for a temperature that is expressed on the Celsius (°C) scale to its Fahrenheit (°F) representation is: F = 9/5C + 32.
  6. 9. waves – waves that transfer electrical and magnetic energy not requiring a medium to travel.
  7. 10. - mass divided by volume.
  8. 11. - a state of stability in which there is no matter flowing into or out of the system.
  9. 19. - a possible explanation for a set of observations or answer to a scientific question.
  10. 20. law – describes an observed pattern in nature, but does not provide an explanation for it.
  11. 22. – materials with high electron mobility
  12. 23. – the thermal energy transferred from one object to another as a result of difference in temperature.
  13. 24. variable (independent variable) – the variable that a scientist changes in an experiment.
  14. 26. energy – the total energy of all the atoms that make up an object.
  15. 27. - the scale of temperature in which water freezes at 0° and boils at 100° under standard conditions. The conversion formula for a temperature that is expressed on the Farenheit (°F) scale to its Celsius (°C) representation is: C = 5/9(F - 32).
  16. 29. – tiny particles that when joined together and act as a unit make up molecules.
  17. 30. - the transfer of energy from particles colliding with other particles but doesn’t transfer the particles along the path of the energy.
  18. 34. - a set of parts working together to perform a certain function or unified whole.
  19. 35. Heat - The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree celsius. (The specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram °C = 4.186 joule/gram °C which is higher than any other common substance. As a result, water plays a very important role in temperature regulation.)
