Test
the temperature at which a liquid starts boiling

punkt wrzenia, temperatura wrzenia
the temperature at which liquid becomes solid

punkt zamarzania, temperatura zamarzania
(physics) matter consisting of elementary particles that are the antiparticles of those of regular matter

antymateria, materia antymateria
(physics) the ability of a material to transmit heat, electricity, or sound
(physics) the degree to which a substance is compacted, measured by dividing its mass by its volume

gęstość, masa właściwa
(physics) the measure of how much a material expands or contracts when its temperature changes by one degree
the ability to go back to the original form after being stretched

elastyczność
the measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, indicating its thickness or stickiness

lepkość, grubość
having the ability to return to its original shape or position after being stretched or compressed

sprężysty, elastyczny
capable of being stretched or drawn out without breaking

rozciągliwy, elastyczny
to reduce the size or volume of something by applying pressure or force

kurczyć, zmniejszać
to reduce the volume or size of something by applying pressure, squeezing, or condensing it

kompresować, ściskać
to change from a gaseous state to a liquid state

kondensować
to transform from a liquid or flexible state into a stable, firm, or compact form

zestalić, zestalić się
to take in a form of energy, such as heat or light

absorbować, pochłaniać
a fundamental particle of light that carries electromagnetic energy and exhibits both particle-like and wave-like properties

foton, kwant światła
the bending of the wave's path as it passes from one medium to another; caused by a change in its speed or direction

refrakcja, ugięcie fal
the bending, spreading, and interference of waves as they encounter obstacles or pass through narrow openings, often observed in the behavior of light, sound, or other waves

dyfrakcja, dyfrakcja fal
(physics) the bouncing back of a wave, such as light or sound, when it hits a surface
(physics) an oscillating movement by which energy is transferred without the transport of matter, such as light and sound

fala, drganie
the distance between a point on a wave of energy and a similar point on the next wave

długość fali, długość jednej fali
the specific number of waves that pass a point every second

częstotliwość
the range of different wavelengths or frequencies of light or radiation

widmo, zakres
(physics) the maximum distance a vibrating material, sound wave, etc. such as a pendulum travels from its first position

amplituda, zakres
(physics) the back-and-forth motion of an object between two end points

oscylacja
relating to electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than visible light but shorter than radio waves, often used in night vision, heat detection, and remote control technology

podczerwony, podczerwień
relating to electromagnetic radiation with shorter wavelengths than those of visible light but longer than X-rays

ultrafioletowy
a device that produces a powerful and concentrated beam of light that can be used in medical procedures, for cutting metal objects, etc.

laser, wiązka laserowa
(physics) a wave in which the vibrations occur at right angles to the direction the wave travels
(physics) a wave in which the vibrations move back and forth along the same direction the wave travels
disturbance caused by signals from a different source which lead to unwanted noise in a radio signal that is being received

zakłócenie, interferencja
