Circuits
The potential difference between 2 points in a circuit.
What is voltage
What is a wave?
A disturbance that carries energy from one location to another
What is made up of tiny particles, such as atoms, molecules or ions
all matter
The SI unit for this is Joules(J)
What is energy?
State where an object at rest remains at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force.
What is Newton's 1st law?
the flow of charged particles is an
what is electric current
What is a medium?
A matter with a definite shape and volume
What is solid?
Stored energy due to the position of an object
What is potential energy?
States that the net force is equal to the acceleration times the mass of the object (f=ma)
Control the movement of electric current by providing paths for electrons to follow
Circuits
What are mechanical waves?
A matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape
what is liquid
The energy stored in elastic materials as te result of their stretching
What is elastic potential energy?
States that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton's 3rd law?
What are electric circuits?
Sometimes a circuit also contains a switch that is used to open and close a circuit.
What are transverse waves?
Medium moves in a direction perpendicular to the direction that the waves move.
What is gas?
The faster an object moves, what energy does it have more of
What is kinetic energy
Newton's 1st law is called
What is the Law of Inertia?
What is voltage?
Is the potential difference between 2 points in a circuit.
What are longitudinal waves?
A wave that has the motion of the medium parallel to the direction of the wave
A state of matter that starts as a gas and becomes ionized.
What is plasma?
States that the total amount of energy in a system remains constant or conserved.
What is the Law of Conservation of Energy?
States that the total amount of momentum does not change
What is law of conservation of momentum
