Document Summary
Conduction: energy is passed from molecule to adjacent molecule. Convection: heated fluid moves and carries heat to a new location. Radiation: heat is directly transmitted from its source. The decrease in the intensity of light over distance in water is: attenuation. The scales used for measuring temperature include the: celsius, kelvin, fahrenheit. : light is bent as it moves from air to water due to a change in the speed of light, light refraction causes an object to appear in a different location than it really is. Heat is the total kinetic energy of the atoms and molecules in a substance. The mass of 1 cubic centimeter of water is 1 gram, which is the density of water. The speed of sound in seawater increases with increasing: depth, temperature, salinity. Cohesion and surface tension are physical properties of water that are formed from the ___ bonds found in water: hydrogen.
