What is an object in motion (or at rest) will stay in motion (or at rest) unless acted upon by an outside force?
The highest point of a wave.
What is crest?
Energy an object has due to its motion.
What is kinetic energy?
The EM waves with the longest wavelengths.
What are radio waves?
An electric circuit with multiple paths which allows devices to work independently.
What is a parallel circuit?
A push or a pull on an object
What is force?
The maximum displacement of the medium from its rest position.
What is amplitude?
Total distance traveled divided by total time.
What is speed?
The bending of a wave as it passes at an angle from one medium to another.
What is refraction?
The amount of charge that travels past a fixed point in a circuit every second.
What is electrical current?
The tendency of an object to resist a change in velocity.
What is inertia?
The unit used to measure the intensity of a wave.
What is bels or decibles?
The amount of work done each second.
What is power?
The name of the current theory of light.
What is the quantum mechanical theory of light?
A material in which electrical charges cannot easily move.
What is an electric insulator?
Friction that opposes the initiation of motion.
What is static friction?
What is a transverse wave?
The distance an object travels plus the direction from the starting point.
What is displacement?
It bends light so that the light rays come together to a point.
What is a convex/converging lens?
The unit for measuring electrical current.
What is amperes or amp?
Newton's Second Law
What is :When an object is acted on by one or more unbalanced forces, the net for is equal to the mass of the object times the resulting acceleration?
Sonic waves have this frequency.
