100

What is the unit of measurement for electric power?

Watts

200

Rate at which a charge passes a given point in a circuit.

Current

200

Given three initial charges of -10C, +22C, and +3C. They all come into contact at the same time and then separate.  What is the resulting charge of each sphere?    

+5C

200

What is the time required for one cycle to occur.

Period

200

If the frequency of a sound wave is 2 cycles per second, what is the period of the wave?  

0.5s

200

What is the unit of measurement for electric energy?

Joules

300

Property of a material that depends on the availability of charges that are relatively free to move under the influence of an electric field

Conductivity

300

What is placed incorrectly on the given circuit and why? 

The switch because it should be placed at the beginning of the circuit. 

300

What is the concept describing the change in the observed frequency of a wave when its source and observer are in relative motion?

Doppler Effect

300

If four cycles are 12m long, what is the wave length?

Friction, light, heat

400

A students measures a current of 0.30A through a lamp connect by short wires to a 12V source.  What is the resistance of the lamp?  

40 ohms      R = V/I  so 12/0.30

400

The motion of vibratory disturbance that is parallel to the direction of travel of the wave through the medium.

Longitudinal Wave

400

. If the frequency of a transverse wave is 10Hz and the wave length is 7, what is the velocity?

70 m/s
400
Hertz is the unit of measurement for what?

Frequency

500

A characteristic of a material that depends on its electronic structure and temperature.

Resistance

500

A potential difference of 10V exists between two points A and B within an electric field. What is the magnitude of the charge that requires 0.002 J of work to move from point A to B.?

2 x 10^-3 C or 0.002C       

V=W/q  

 10 = 0.02/q

10q = 0.02

q=0.02/10
