Vocabulary

  • Heat:

conduction: the process by which heat is directly transmitted through a substance

conductor: a material or device that conducts or transmits heat, electricity, or sound, esp. when regarded in terms of its capacity to do this.

convection: Heat transfer in a gas or liquid by the circulation of currents from one region to another.

insulator: a substance that does not readily allow the passage of heat or sound.

radiation: the emission of energy as electromagnetic waves or as moving subatomic particles

thermal energy: Thermal energy is generated and measured by heat of any kind. It is caused by the increased activity or velocity of molecules in a substance, which in turn causes temperature to rise accordingly.

thermal expansion: Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature.

thermometer: an instrument for measuring and indicating temperature

Light:

absorb: take in or soak up (energy, or a liquid or other substance)

angle of incidence: the angle that an incident line or ray makes perpendicular to the surface at the point of incidence.

angle of reflection: the angle made by a reflected ray with a perpendicular to the reflecting surface

concave: having an outline or surface that curves inward like the interior of a circle or sphere.

convex: having an outline or surface curved like the exterior of a circle or sphere.

light: the natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible.

light spectrum: The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all possible frequencies of electromagnetic radiation.

light waves: visible light is electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye, and is responsible for the sense of sight

opaque: not able to be seen through; not transparent.

prism: a solid geometric figure whose two end faces are similar, equal, and parallel rectilinear figures, and whose sides are parallelograms.

reflection: the throwing back by a body or surface of light, heat, or sound without absorbing it.

refraction: the fact or phenomenon of light, radio waves, etc., being deflected in passing obliquely through the interface between one medium and another

roy g biv: Roy G. Biv is an acronym for the sequence of hues commonly described as making up a rainbow: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

translucent: a substance that allows light, but not detailed images, to pass through; semitransparent.

transmitted: to pass from one place to another

transparent: (of a material or article) allowing light to pass through so that objects behind can be distinctly seen.



Sound:

amplitude (volume): the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.

frequency (pitch): the rate at which a vibration occurs that constitutes a wave, either in a material (as in sound waves), or in an electromagnetic field (as in radio waves and light)

sound wave: a wave of compression and rarefaction, by which sound is propagated in an elastic medium such as air.

speed of sound: The speed of sound is the distance traveled during a unit of time In dry air at 20 °C, the speed of sound is 343.2 meters per second.  

wavelengths: the distance between successive crests of a wave, esp. points in a sound wave or electromagnetic wave.

Heat, Light, & Sound Infographic Assignment

For this project we will be creating an inforgraphic about Heat, Light, & Sound using the program piktochart.  We will then add it to our websites and use it as a study guide for the final test. Log in using your school gmail account.

​Piktochart.com
Rubric for Heat, Light, & Sound Infographic assignment.

This project is a chance to use your own creativity to create a study guide that is beneficial to you.  The goal is to understand in depth what heat, light, and sound are. Words, pictures, symbols, videos are all acceptable.

I would like to see each of the vocabulary found above with a definition that you understand or a picture that helps you understand it.
