Physics Final S2 Vocab ALREADY PASSED
Archimedes’ Principle
-/=any object submerged in a fluid experience an upward buoyant force equal in magnitude to
the weight of the fluid displaced by the object
Bernoulli’s Principle
-/=the pressure of a fluid decreases as its velocity increases
buoyant force
-/=upward force that keeps objects afloat
pressure
-/=the magnitude of force on a surface per unit area
Pascal’s Principle
-/=pressure applied to a fluid in a closed container is transmitted equally to every point of the
fluid and to the walls of the container
laminar flow
-/=every particle flows is in the same direction/along the same path.
fluid
-/=gas and liquid
ideal fluid
-/=A fluid that is incompressible and no internal resistance (viscosity) to flow
turbulent flow
-/=irregular flow of fluid
density
, -/=A measure of how tightly packed molecules are in a substance
pascal
-/=SI for pressure
Magnus effect
-/=the effect a spinning object has on the speed of a fluid which curves the path of flight
heat
-/=energy transferred from one substance to another bassed on temperature differences
specific heat capacity
-/=the energy required to raise the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1 celsius
temperature
-/=measurement of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a substance
thermal equilibrium
-/=the state in which two bodies in physical contact with each other have same temperatures
latent heat
-/=heat required to change the state of a substance
fusion
-/=solid to liquid
vaporization
-/=liquid to gas
calorimetry
-/=the process of measuring the amount of heat released or absorbed in a system
internal energy
-/=energy of a substance due to kinetic energy of its molecules and potential energy that results
from the arrangement of molecules
