A quantity that has both magnitude and direction
Vector
The state of an object where the net force is equal to zero (all forces cancel out)
Equilibrium
The tool used to measure the voltage within a circuit
Voltmeter
The time it takes a wave to complete one full cycle
Period
These two particles make up the nucleus
A vector expression of the displacement that an object or particle undergoes with respect to time
Velocity
The change in momentum of an object
Impulse
These materials have readily flowing electrons that allow them to transfer electrical current
Conductors
The phenomenon when one object vibrating at the same natural frequency of a second object forces that second object into vibrational motion.
Resonance
The pitch of a sound waves relates to this characteristic of a wave
Frequency
A vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity.
Acceleration
This fundamental force is responsible for holding the nucleus together
The charge of one electron or proton can be written as 1.6x10^(-19) Coulombs, or one __________.
elementary charge
All waves of this type vibrate particles parallel to the direction that the wave is travelling
Longitudinal
The rate at which work is done
Power
An objects resistance to a change in state of motion
The name of two forces acting on an object at the same time
Concurrent Forces
A device that converts chemical energy to electrical energy within a circuit
Battery
In a standing wave, these locations are regions of zero displacement and destructive interference
Nodes
A condition that restricts a system to the absorption or radiation of energy in only fixed amounts
quantized
State of a body where the only force acting on it is the downwards force due to gravity (Fg)
Free Fall
The ratio of the frictional force to the normal force between two surfaces
Voltage
The apparent change in frequency of a wave due to the relative motion between source and observer
The Doppler Effect
A particle having mass, and spin identical to the associated particle, but with a charge of the opposite sign
antiparticle
