Can you fill in the blank to total energy of a materials particles causes particles to vibrate in place?
All states of matter have vibrating particles, but solids' particles vibrate only.
Causes particles to vibrate in place?
the thermal energy is what causes the particles to vibrate.
When you boil water what do the particles do?
The particles gain energy (kinetic energy) and begin to vibrate. This vibration causes heat. As the particle vibrates, it will collide with other particles in water and pass this energy on to neighbouring particles which causes the heat conduction.
What energy change occurs when sound is produced?
Sound energy causes the particles in the medium it is traveling through to vibrate. The medium is a solid, liquid or gas.
What causes particles to settle the most?
Greater density causes particles to settle faster.
What is a seismic wave that causes particules of rock to vibrate in the same direction which the wave is moving?
That would be a P-wave or Primary wave which is a longitudinal seismic wave.
How does conduction heat solids?
Heat energy from the source causes the particles to oscillate (vibrate) this chains and causes neighbouring particles to vibrate.
Can you fill in the blank to total energy of a materials particles causes particles to vibrate in place?
All states of matter have vibrating particles, but solids' particles vibrate only.
Why does adding heat cause particles to vibrate faster?
Heat is a form of energy, you are adding energy to the system, this causes the particles to vibrate faster.
What produced when energy causes particles to vibrate in waves?
sound
What is produced when energy causes particles to vibrate in waves?
sound
What type of energy causes other particles to vibrate?
kinetic energy
Causes particles to vibrate in place?
the thermal energy is what causes the particles to vibrate.
Adding thermal energy to a material causes the particles to?
Vibrate in place (move)
When a hot object touches a cool object the particles in the hot object cause the particles in the cool object to?
It causes it to vibrate which causes it to heat up
A mechanical wave is created when a source of energy causes?
Particles of the carrier medium to vibrate.
Which type of wave causes the medium to vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the wave?
Transverse Wave.
