Definitions
A small ‘package’ of light energy that acts like a particle.
What is a proton?
The first principle that governs electromagnetic force.
What is all electric charges attract or repel one another?
A circuit that does not have a complete connection between the two sides of the power source.
What is an open circuit?
A cluster of many atoms that have their magnetic fields aligned and so act as a magnet.
What is a magnetic domain?
A black object is heated until it glows with a nice, orange-yellow glow. The black object has no net electrical charge. The light come from this.
What is from the interaction of charged particles?
A buildup of electrical charges within or on the surface of a material.
What is static electricity?
The second principle that governs electromagnetic force.
What is the force between 2 charged objects is directly proportional to the amount of charge on each object?
The two types of circuits.
What are and series circuit and a parallel circuit.
The force a magnet exerts on another magnet, on metals, or on moving charges.
What is magnetic force?
If you want to give an object positive change, but the only source you have is negative. You would be charging the object with this.
What is induction?
The amount of charge that travels past a fixed point in an electric circuit each second.
What is electrical current?
The third principle that governs electromagnetic force.
What is the force between 2 charged objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them?
In what type of circuit will one burnt out lightbulb cause all others to stop working.
What is a series circuit?
Closer magnetic field lines at the poles indicate this.
What is the field is stronger?
Suppose a wire was made of aluminum. Would it have zero resistance?
What is no.
Current that flows from the positive side of the battery to the negative side of the battery.
What is conventional current?
This man is referred to as the founder of modern Physics.
Who is James Clerk Maxwell?
When you flip a switch and the light comes on you are creating this type of circuit.
What is a closed circuit?
Magnetic field lines that are more spaced out indicate this.
What is the field is weaker?
Modern Christmas lights are made to be this kind of circuit.
What is a parallel circuit?
This refers to how an electron moves around its axis.
What is spin?
This is the effect of a charge on other charges in the space around it.
What is electric field?
This type of circuit allows for continued electron flow with an open switch.
What is a parallel circuit?
What is ferro magnetic materials.
Suppose you have two wires lying side by side. In one wire, the current flows one way, and in the other wire, an equal amount of current flows the opposite way. Could you wrap those wires around a nail and make a magnet?
What is NO?
