2025/2026 QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED
ANSWERS || ALREADY GRADED A+ <RECENT
VERSION>
Scientific Law .......Answer.........A statement that describes what
scientists expect to happen every time under a particular set of
conditions
Scientific Theory .......Answer.........A well-tested explanation for a
wide range of observations or experimental results.
Conservation Laws .......Answer.........Fundamental laws of all
science
conservation of mass .......Answer.........the principle stating that
matter is not created or destroyed during a chemical reaction
,age 2 of 29
conservation of energy .......Answer.........Energy cannot be
created or destroyed
conservation of momentum .......Answer.........Momentum of a
system remains constant when there are no net external forces
acting on it.
Charge Conservation .......Answer.........Electric charge can neither
be created nor destroyed but is always conserved
Boyle's Law .......Answer.........A principle that describes the
relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas at
constant temperature
Ideal Gas Law .......Answer.........the relationship PV=nRT, which
describes the behavior of an ideal gas
, age 3 of 29
mass-energy equivalence .......Answer.........Relationship between
mass and energy as given by the equation E=mc^2, where c is
the speed of light.
General Relativity .......Answer.........Gravitational attraction
between masses is a result of the nearby masses; gravity has
waves
Law of Inertia; Newton's First Law .......Answer.........an object at
rest stays at rest AND an object in motion stays in motion unless
acted on by an outside force
Newton's Second Law .......Answer.........Force equals mass times
acceleration
Newton's Third Law .......Answer.........For every action there is an
equal and opposite reaction
