Graphing
These graphs are best for showing changes over time.
What are line graphs.
The attractive or repulsive force that is exerted between the poles of a magnet and electrically charged moving particles.
What is magnetic force.
Unit of measurement for force.
What are Newtons.
This is when magnetism is produced by an electric current.
What is an electromagnet.
The energy of motion.
What is kinetic energy.
These graphs are best for showing comparisons, categories, or quantities.
What are bar graphs.
A compass is an example of this.
What is magnetic force.
An attractive force between objects with mass.
What is gravitational force.
Lightening storms are an example of this type of force.
What is Electrical force.
What is potential energy.
These graphs are best for showing proportional data.
What are circle graphs.
When a magnet pushes away from another magnet.
What is repulsion.
The Moon orbits Earth is an example of this.
What is gravitational force.
Force in the form of charged particles.
What is electrical force.
A working system that is part of a larger system.
What is a subsystem.
This data is recorded on the X-axis.
What is the independent variable.
When a magnet pulls towards another magnet.
What is attraction.
Can pull on an object without touching it.
What is gravity.
A closed loop of conductive material.
What is a circuit.
The ability of a system to do work.
What is energy.
This data is recorded on the Y-axis.
What is the dependent variable.
The area around a magnet where magnetic forces can be felt.
What is a magnetic field.
An object gains this when it is placed higher up.
What is gravitational potential energy.
This is created when two non-electrical objects are rubbed together.
What is static electricity.
Location where kinetic energy is the least and potential energy is the most.
What is the top of a roller coaster.
