  • Volumetric thermal expansion of a solid is calculated using ΔV = bVΔT
  • Work done = force x distance moved in same direction
  • Energy can be transferred between objects by work done, heating or cooling, and electric current.
  • The SI unit of energy is the joule (J).
  • Heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of an object by 1 degree Celsius.
  • Boyle's Law states that the product of pressure and volume remains constant at a given temperature.
  • What is Science
    The knowledge gained through observation and experimentation is called Science.
  • Scientists use scientific methods to test their hypotheses and theories.
  • Science has two main branches: Natural Sciences (Physical & Life) as Biological Sciences.
