Q

Newtons first law

A

An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force

16
Q

Current electricity

A

Flow of electrons through a material. which allows the flow of electrons more easily

17
Q

Collision theory

A

For a reaction to occur between 2 substances, the particles must collide

18
Q

Conductor

A

In when some electron are free to leave they flow through
eg copper and nickel

19
Q

I

A

Current

20
Q

V

A

Voltage

21
Q

R

A

Resistance

22
Q

What is voltage

A

Tells us how much energy it provides to the componments in the circuit

23
Q

Componment used to measure current

A

Ammeter measured in amps

24
Q

Insulator

A

Where electrons are tightly held and cannot leave
eg plastic and wood

25
Q

Domain theory

A

Small reigons inside the magnetic fields called domains

26
Q

Contact forced when ballon is rubbed aganist a jumper

A

Friction

27
Q

Parallel circuit

A

Componments are connected side by side in different rows

28
Q

Series circuit

A

The comonments are connected end to end in a loop

29
Q

Ohms Law

A

Electric current is proportinal to volatge and inversely

30
Q

Electromagnets

A

You can change the magnetic field by increasing the current number of coils and adding an iron core

31
Q

Static energy

A

Objects rub together and some electrons transfer to another material

32
Q

How can static energy be dangerous

A

Electric shock due to the flow of current through the body, causing a person everything from an uncomfortable zap to falls, burns, or stopping the heart.
