Results

The particle model of matter is one of the most useful scientific models because it describes matter in all three states. Understanding how the particles of matter behave is vital if we hope to understand science!

The model also helps us to understand what happens to the particles when matter changes from one state to another.

In this unit, you will explore the three phases of matter and then look at the properties and differences between them. You will explore their shape, volume, and kinetic energy.

Photoelectric materials emit electrons when they absorb light of a high-enough frequency.

Using position-time graphs and number lines to find displacement and distance traveled.

The potential energy between two objects due to long-distance forces can be thought of as being stored in a field. When the objects move due to the field forces, the energy stored in the field decreases

Outcomes

In this course you will learn about:

• The concept of pressure
• Pressure due to solids
• Pressure in liquids
• Atmospheric pressure

Online problems where the student is required to simplify the expression using the product property of exponents.

An activity explaining the properties of exponents.

In this unit you will learn about different materials by investigating and observing the behaviour of their properties. This will include learning about the differences between metals and non-metals; whether they are isolators or conductors of electricity and heat, whether they are magnetic, how dense they are and whether they are acidic or basic.

In this section, you will:

• Evaluate square roots.
• Use the product rule to simplify square roots.
• Use the quotient rule to simplify square roots.
• Add and subtract square roots.
• Rationalize denominators.
• Use rational roots.
