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

Q

Newtons second law

A

The acceleration of an object depends upon two variables – the net force acting on the object and the mass of the objec

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

20
Q

V

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
Insulator
Where electrons are tightly held and cannot leave eg plastic and wood
25
Domain theory
Small reigons inside the magnetic fields called domains
26
Contact forced when ballon is rubbed aganist a jumper
Friction
27
Parallel circuit
Componments are connected side by side in different rows
28
Series circuit
The comonments are connected end to end in a loop
29
Ohms Law
Electric current is proportinal to volatge and inversely
30
Electromagnets
You can change the magnetic field by increasing the current number of coils and adding an iron core
31
Static energy
Objects rub together and some electrons transfer to another material
32
How can static energy be dangerous
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.
