Physics

1. Kinetic theory

   • explains the different states of matter and there properties
   • Solid
     • soldier atoms
   • liquid
     • atoms move around a bit more
   • Gas
     • atoms bounce and hit and sides of its container

2. Words

   • Infra red
     • Electromagnetic waves between visible light and microwaves in the electromagnetic spectrum
   • red-shift
   • conduction
     • transfer of energy from particle to particle in matter
   • convection
     • transfer of energy by the bulk movement of a heated fluid
   • radiation
     • heat transfer from objects
   • insulator
     • material/object that is a poor conductor
   • electromagnetic spectrum
   • microwave
   • gamma ray
     • Shorts wavelength and greatest power
   • wave
   • U value
     • The lower the U-value, the more effective
   • reflection
   • angle of incicdence
     • angle between the incident ray and the normal
   • conductor
     • material/object that conducts electricity
   • angle of reflection
     • angle of between the reflected ray and the normal
