CAPT PRACTICE TEST UPDATED ACTUAL
Questions And CORRECT Answers
Temperature - CORRECT ANSWERS measure of how much particles are vibrating
Liquid to Gas - CORRECT ANSWERS Vaporization (occurs at boiling point)
Gas to Liquid - CORRECT ANSWERS Condensation (occurs at condensation point)
Solid to Liquid - CORRECT ANSWERS Melting (melting point)
Liquid to Solid - CORRECT ANSWERS Freezing (freezing point)
Solid to Gas - CORRECT ANSWERS Sublimation
Conduction - CORRECT ANSWERS transfer of energy (Heat) from warmer object to cooler one
by direct contact
Convection - CORRECT ANSWERS when a fluid (liquid or gas) is unevenly heated or cooled and
energy is transferred through a resulting current
Radiation - CORRECT ANSWERS transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves -occurs when
an object absorbs radiation
Kinetic Energy - CORRECT ANSWERS energy related to motion
Potential energy - CORRECT ANSWERS energy related to an object's position or shape
, Radiant energy - CORRECT ANSWERS includes light, solar, thermal, heat, sound, nuclear,
electrical, chemical energy--depends of how hot object is
Electrical energy - CORRECT ANSWERS caused by moving electrical charges
Chemical energy - CORRECT ANSWERS stored in chemical bonds in an object
Static electricity - CORRECT ANSWERS build up of either positive or negative charges on an
object or caused by friction
Series circuit - CORRECT ANSWERS has a single loop, more than one light bulb, if one bulb
burns out then circuit is broken and all other lights go off
Parallel circuit - CORRECT ANSWERS circuit with more than one loop and when a light bulb
burns out, the other bulbs remain lit
Electricity - CORRECT ANSWERS the continuous flow of electrical charge (electrons)
Current (AMP/I) - CORRECT ANSWERS rate of flow, the amount of electrical charge that passes
through any part of the circuit in a second
Resistance (OHM/R) - CORRECT ANSWERS measures how hard it is for electron to travel
through the circuit
Voltage (V) - CORRECT ANSWERS how hard the electrons are being pushed through the circuit
or the "electric pressure"
Current = - CORRECT ANSWERS voltage/resistance or v/r
