The circumference is the distance around the outside edge of a circle or a round object. It is a measurement that tells you how long the boundary of a round shape is.

A perpendicular is a line that meets or crosses another line at a 90-degree angle. It is used in science and math to describe two lines that are perfectly square to each other.

A catalyst is something that makes a change happen faster or more easily. In science, it is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction without being changed itself.

Gravity is the natural force that pulls objects toward each other, especially toward the center of the Earth. It is what makes things fall to the ground and keeps us from floating away into space.

Friction is the force that happens when two surfaces rub against each other. It makes it harder for things to move and can create heat.

Inertia is the tendency of an object to stay still or keep moving in the same way unless a force changes it. In a general sense, it also refers to a lack of energy or a desire to stay unchanged.
