Series resistors
a continuous usage of resistors.
Ohm's Law
states that the voltage is equal to the current (amperes) multiplied the resistance.
weight
how much an object weighs
displacement
the distance from two different positions; ex: point A is 5 m from point B, thus its displacement is 5 m.
inelastic collision
Two colliding objects stick together to become one.
Center of mass
part of the system that is used as a basis for measuring external forces.
Force weight
weight of any object equal to (m x g)
Voltage
electric potential energy.
Free body diagram
a simple sketch of the forces relative to a given object.
position time graph
shows where the object is at a given time.
Elastic Potential Energy
Stored energy an elastic object has; ex: a rubber band.
Coefficient of Friction
the amount of friction (ratio) needed to an object across a surface.
Resistance
opposing a force from going through a current.
Newton's 3rd law
for every action there is an equal or greater action.
Electric current
The flow of an electric charged carried through a wire.
Elementary charge
electrical charge carried by a single proton/ electron.
Force
anything that causes an object to move
impulse
the amount of force at a given time.
system
a small portion of the whole area that you are analyzing data from.
Ammeter
Tool used to measure electric currents in amperes (amps).
Kirchhoff's Law
the sum of all currents going into a node is equal to 0.
Coulombs Constant
is the electrical force constant/ electrostatic.
Force of Friction
the force that acts on an object that moves in the opposite direction of your normal force.
Force tension
force that is acted on a rope, when it is outstretched.
Coulombs Law
"The force of attraction or repulsion acting along a straight line between two electric charges."
Normal Force
the force that is perpendicular to the surface of the object
Static friction
the friction on an object where the object is at rest
Conservation of Momentum
When a system has momentum equal through the whole system. Consider Newton's 1st law.
elastic collision
When the kinetic energy of two colliding object's is equal to the resulting energy.
velocity time graph
shows the objects velocity at a given time.
parallel resistor
closed circuit that divides into two or more paths. Both paths get the full circuit voltage.
gravitational field
idea used to identify the field in which gravity effects objects. Free fall acceleration- acceleration due to gravity.
Net Force
the total amount of force acting on an object.
free fall acceleration
acceleration due to gravity
speed
the rate of an object.
momentum
is the velocity times it's velocity.
acceleration
change of velocity over time.
Gravitation Potential Energy
energy an object has due to gravity.
Newton's 2nd law
acceleration is equal to the objects net force.
Newton's 1st law
any object stays in motion until acted on by an outside force.
Kinetic friction
the friction on an object when it's moving.
Law of Universal Gravitation
any two objects that are attracted have a force directly proportional to the product of their masses.
Translational Kinetic Energy
Energy of a moving object in a circular/ rotational motion.
position
the place where an object is at.
Voltmeter
Tool used to measure electrical potential in volts.
Conservation of charge
total electrical charge of an isolated system is fixed.
resistor
resists the flow of an electrical current.
inclined plane
Commonly known as a ramp or wedge, one end is higher than the other
Kinetic Energy
The amount of energy a moving object has.
free fall projectile
an object that is falling with only gravity acting on it.
