What are the four familiar states of matter?
Solid,Liquid,Gas, and Plasma
Definition of a wave
a disturbance that carries energy from one location to another location.
Higher Current=

Where are the crest and trough of the wave
Crest= top of the wave
Trough=bottom of the wave
Electric Charge
Objects become positively charged when they lose electrons and negatively charged when they gain electrons; objects with like charges repel and objects with opposite charges attract.
The law of conversation of energy...?
states that the total amount of energy in a system remains constant or conserved.
