Science

All the physical science terms you'll need!

AB
ohmunit of resistance
conductiontrasfer of charge through direct contact of objects
voltmeterdevice that measures voltage
ammeterdevice that measures current
static electricityelectric charges at REST
insulatormaterial that does not allow electrons to flow
currentelectrons in motion
Ohm's Lawrelates current, voltage, and resistance
inductionrearrangement of electrons without direct contact
voltunit of measure for potential difference(voltage)
ampereunit of measure for the rate of electron flow(current)
conductormaterial that lets electrons flow
potential energystored energy
potential energyenergy of motion
nuclear energycomes from the nucleus of the atom, most concentrated form of energy
energy conversionchange in the type of energy
chemical energyenergy that bonds atoms or ions together
kinetic energy depends onmass and velocity
heat energyinternal motion of particles of matter
unlike poles of magnetsattract
like poles of magnetsrepel
positive chargemore protons
negative chargemore neutrons
neutral chargesame # of protons and neutrons
worka force exerted over a distance
power equals work divided by ____time
Newtonused to measure force
fulcrumthe place where the lever is supported
moveable pullychanges the direction of the force
machinereduces our effort
forceis a push or pull, gives energy to an object, can cause an object to chage it's motion
balanced forcesopposite and equal, motion is stopped
work is only done whenforce is applied
Newton's 1st Lawan object in motion will stay in motion, an object at rest will stay at rest until an outside force is applied to it.
