Grid #4 Vocabulary

The process of transmission of heat energy from one molecule to another molecule as they are in direct contact with each other

• conduction

• convection

• radiation

NGSS.MS-PS3-3

A type of heat transfer when a fluid is heated and then travels away from the source, it carries the thermal energy along

• conduction

• convection

• radiation

Energy that moves from one place to another in a form that can be described as waves or particles

• conduction

• convection

• radiation

NGSS.MS-PS4-2

Matter that waves are traveling through

• medium

• amplitude

• frequency

• wavelength

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS4-2

The height of a wave as measured from the highest point on the wave to the lowest point on the wave

• medium

• amplitude

• frequency

• wavelength

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS4-1

The number of waves that pass a given point in one second

• medium

• amplitude

• frequency

• wavelength

This describes how long the wave is; measured from the "crest" (top) of one wave to the crest of the next wave or from the "trough" (bottom) of one wave to the trough of the next wave

• medium

• amplitude

• frequency

• wavelength

A wave where the movement of the particles of the medium are perpendicular (at a right angle) to the direction of the propagation of the wave

• transverse

• longitudinal

A wave where the particle motion is in the same direction (parallel) in which the wave is propagating

• transverse

• longitudinal

This is a path for transmitting electric current

• electric circuit

• current

• conductor

• insulator
