standard units of measurement

conduction

transfer of heat energy by direct contact between molecules

convection

transfer of heat energy through liquids and gases by moving molecules

radiation

transfer of heat energy by waves between objects that are not touching

newton’s #1 law of motion

law of intertia; a body will remain at rest or continue moving unless acted upon by an external force

newton’s #2 law of motion

force = mass X acceleration

newton’s #3 law of motion

to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
