ACT science

Endothermic

Warm Blooded

Ectothermic

Cold blooded

Radiation

Energy leaves medium

Convection

Energy leave fluid via circulation

Conduction

Energy lost via direct contact

Mechanical energy

Total of potential and kinetic energy

Velocity

Distance equals velocity*times

Forces

gravity pulls down towards Earth and frictional forces are opposite the direction of motion

Circuit unit

voltage (volts-V), current (amps-A), resistance (ohms-f2)

Current and resistance have an inverse relationship, ± means direction not magnitude (-5>2)

Altitude/depth on y axis

The y/x axis roles flipped: y is for independent variable, x is for dependent variable.

Mnemonic for converting units

King-Kilo

Dances-Deca

Merrily- (Base Unit)

Drinking-Deci

Chocolate-Centi

Milk-Mil

When going down then Ho, multiply by 10, when going up then down, then divide by 10
