- deals with the interaction of matter, force, and energy, divided into classical & modern Physics.
- it is the study of the physical world
(a)
- deals with w/macroscopic objects moving at speeds very small compared to the speed of light vacuum in a vacuum: 3x 10^8 m/s
(a)
- deals with motion, force, work, energy, and fluids
(a)
-deals with/ the effects of heat when added or removed from a system
(a)
- deals with the study of light & its properties
(a)
-deals with phenomena associated with/ electrical charges, magnetism, and the relationship between them
(a)
-deals with properties, transmissions, and perception of different types of waves
(a)
- properties of and reaction within the atomic nucleus of matter and light
(a)
tells how matter curves space-time and how the curvature of space-time dictates the trajectory of matter and light
(a)
-building blocks of matter life called elementary particles
(a)
- nature and behavior of matter and energy on atomic subatomic levels
(a)
- deals with the phenomena associated when an object moves with speeds approaching the speed of light in a vacuum.
(a)
- are the digits in a measurement that contribute to its accuracy.
(a)
- A way of expressing numbers as a product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10.
(a)
represents how close or consistent the independent measurements of the same quantity are to one another.
(a)
differences between observed values and what is true in nature
(a)
- Are errors in a consistent pattern in the experimental data.
- is caused by faulty equipment or a flawed experiment design (ex: incorrect calibration)
- It can be eliminated by using proper technique, calibrating equipment, improve structure of the apparatus and employing standards.
(a)
- Are error in an indefinite pattern and non-consistent in the experimental data
- is caused by unpredictable variations in the readings of a measurement device
- Can be minimized by repeatedly taking the readings.
(a)
Instrumental error, Environmental error, Procedural error, Human error
(a)
is due to carelessness or to the limitations of human ability.
(a)
occurs when instruments give inaccurate readings
(a)
happens when some factor in the environment, such as an uncommon event, leads to error.
(a)
occurs when data is recorded or written down incorrectly.
(a)
can occur when reading measurements on some instruments.
(a)
magnitude; does not have directions
Ex: Distance, Speed, Volume, Mass, Temperature, Power, Energy and Time
(a)
magnitude and direction
Ex: Displacement, Acceleration, Force, Momentum, Weight, the velocity of light, a gravitational field, Current
(a)
refers to how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value.
(a)
A continuous change in position with respect to a reference point for a particular time interval
(a)
The total length of the entire path that the object or a person traveled in moving from one place to another. Scalar quantity; SI unit = Meter (m)
(a)
is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.
(a)
refers to how fast an object can cover a distance in a given amount of time.
(a)
Speed with direction. How fast an object is moving and to which direction.
(a)
How quick an object speeds up and slows down.
(a)
The motion of an object falling solely under the influence of gravity, with no other forces acting on it, such as air resistance. Any object that is being acted upon only by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of_.
(a)
an increase in speed and velocity
(a)
a decrease in speed and velocity
(a)
