Definition
The force of gravity acting on a object
W= M x G |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-Allows matter to recover size and shape after expanded or compressed
-Steel and Water are elastic mediums (fiberglass isn't)
-Essential for sound travel |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-Described by magnitude and unit i.e. distance, mass, volume, density, temp, etc.
-Steel is most dense thus sound travels best |
