  • Physical Science
    • Conservation of energy and increase in disorder
      • As energy transfers occur, the matter involved becomes steadily less ordered. (9-12)
      • Heat consists of random motion and the vibrations of atoms, molecules, and ions. (9-12)
    • Interactions of energy and matter
      • Waves, including sound and seismic waves, waves on water, and light waves, have energy and can transfer energy when they interact with matter. (9-12)
      • Electromagnetic waves result when a charged object is accelerated or decelerated. (9-12)
      • Electromagnetic waves include radio waves (the longest wavelength), microwaves, infrared radiation (radiant heat), visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, and gamma rays. (9-12)
      • The energy of electromagnetic waves is carried in packets whose magnitude is inversely proportional to the wavelength. (9-12)
      • Wavelengths can be used to identify the substance. (9-12)
