ch 12 and 4 science vocab

anything that takes up space and has mass

matter with a definite shape and volume

a liquids resistance to flow is known as the liquids

matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape

the uneven forces acting on the particles on the surface of a liquid

matter that does not have a definite shape or volume

the total kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in a sample of matter

the average kinetic energy of the individual particles

the movement of thermal energy from a substance at a higher temperature to one at a lower temperature

the change from the solid state to the liquid state

the change from the liquid state to the solid state

the change from a liquid to a gas

the process which is the opposite of vaporization

is equal to the force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted

upward force exerted on an object immersed in a fluid

the buoyant force n an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object

mass divided by volume

when a force is applied to a confined fluid, an increase in pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid

the force per unit area that is applied on the surface of an object

any substance that has no definite shape and has the ability to flow

an upward force that is exerted by a fluid on any object in the fluid

uses a fluid to icrease an input force

when the speed of a fluid incereases the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases
