melting point
24
point at which liquid to gas
boiling point
25
point where liquid turns into solid
freezing point
26
flow of electrical power/charge
electricity
27
discovered the voltaic cell in 1800
alessandro volta
28
invented the incandescent lampin 1879
thomas edison
29
flow of charged paticles from one region to another
electrical current
30
energy gained frrom flow of excess electrons
electrical energy
31
all matter is made up of?
atoms
32
what is at the senter of each atom and what is the things surronding it
nucleus and electrons
33
carries a negative charge and is free moving
electrons
34
has no electric charge
neutrons
35
has postive charge and is heavier than electrons
protons
36
# l direction of current from the postive terminal to the negative
conventional
37
direction of current is from negative to positive terminal
electron flow
38
# guess the formula If I==amount of time(A) T=time(s) q=number of of charges(C)
I=q/t
39
is the unit of measurement for current
ampere(A)
40
made significant contributions to electricity
andre-maire ampere
41
complete or closed path through which charges flow from 1 terminal to another
circuit
42
what consists of source,load and conducting wires
simple circuit
43
external work needed to bring a charge fro 1 location to another
electric potential difference( voltage)
44
used to measure voltage
voltmeter
45
formula for voltage
v=work/(q)unit of charge
46
1 volt is equivlent to one?
joule per columb(j/c)
47
opposition that a substance offers to the flow of current
electrical resistance
48
unit of measurement of resistance
ohms(Ω)
49
in a circuit the current(I) varies directly as the potential difference(V) is applied ,inversly the resistance(R) of the conductor
Ohm's law
50
component that regulates the flow of current in circuit
resistors
51
other formula for voltage
I(current-A)* R(resistance-Ω)=Voltage
52
they can be used world wide
circuit diagrams
53
provides only 1 path for the flow of current, if there is a failure or break in any part the circuit would cease to function
series circuit
54
provides 2 or more paths for the flow of current,would still work if there is a failure or breakage in any part
parallel circuit
55
shaking of rocks underneath the surface
earthquakes
56
earthquakes propagate through?
seismic waves
57
are vibrations which carry energy away fro the focus and across the surface
seismic waves
58
point beneath earth's surface where rock is under stress triggering the earthquake

faultplane
61
tectonic earthquakes are caused by?
