perfume spray
Pascals principle
when force is applied in a confined fluid the change in pressure is transmitted equally
electromagnetic waves
a form of energy that can move through the vaccum space
motion
change in distance compared to another object
prediction
forecast what will happen
solstice
sun farthest north or south of the equator
velocity
speed in a given direction
buoyancy
ability to float
Archimedes principle
buoyant force acting on a submerged object is equal to the weight of the fluid the object displaces
fluid pressure
material that can easily flow
eclipses
the partial or total blocking of one object in space by another
machine
a way to do work easier
science
the way of learning about the natural world through observations and logical reasoning that leads to a body of knowledge
convection
transfer of heat by fluid movement
rotation
the spinning of earth on its axis
conduction
transfer of heat from one substance to the other
land breeze
wind that blows over a short distance
lunar eclipses
when earth is directly between the sun and the moon
coriolis effect
the way earths rotation is curved
action reaction
when you exert force on the ground it makes you move
Bernoullis principle
faster a fluid moves the less pressure it exerts
projectile
thrown object
equinoxes
noon sun right directly over the equator equal night
horse latitudes
calm areas at 30 degrees N or S with no air
global convection current
warm air rises and cold air sinks
free fall
only force of an object
flying disks
curved so the air makes move up and then come down
momentum
related moving object mass and velocity
balanced forces
equal force acting on one object
chimney
low presure on top when air goes up it becomes low and it moves faster
unbalanced forces
can cause an object to stop moving, moving or change direction
trade winds
blow form horse latitudes to the equator
highland
mountains
visible light
all colors you see in the rainbow
satellite
any object that orbits around another object

power
rate at which work is done
tides
periodic fall and rise of the ocean
crater
large round pills
wind chill factor
measure of cooling temperature and wind speed
buoyant force
force opposite to gravity
centripetal force
any force that causes an object traveling in a circular path
scattering
reflection of light in all directions
pressure
force exerted on an area on the surface of an object
relative humidity
the percentage of water vapor
force
push or a pull
wind
air from high pressure to low pressure
physical science
energy, matter, forces, pressure, and more
work
when you exxert force on an object that causes the object to move some distance
solar eclipses
when the moon is directly between sun and earth
