Electricity and Magnetism
Electricity
Static Electricity
Friction
:star:Is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another:star:
Static Discharge
:red_cross:Is the release of static electricity when two objects touch each other:red_cross:
Charge
:recycle:It is the result of the electromagnetic attraction between charged particles in two touching surfaces:recycle:
:check:The state of having a deficiency of electrons; having a higher electric potential:check:
:no_entry:Having a surplus of electrons; having a lower electric
potential:no_entry:
:fire:Rubbing balloons on your neck:fire:
:explode:Sloshing fuel in tank, pipes, containers:explode:
:forbidden:Is an accumulation of electrical charges on objects:forbidden:
Fields
Electric Field Strength
:star:Is a quantitative expression of the intensity of an electric field at a particular location:star:
Test Charge
:red_cross:Is a charge with a magnitude so small that placing it at a point has a negligible affect on the field around the point:red_cross:
Non-contact force
:warning:Is a force which acts on an object without coming physically in contact with it:warning:
:no_entry:Is a vector quantity that exists at every point in space:no_entry:
Circuits
Current
:fountain_pen:Is a flow of electrical charge carriers, usually electrons or electron-deficient atoms:fountain_pen:
Amperes
:pencil2:Is a unit of measure of the rate of electron flow or current in an electrical conductor:pencil2:
Voltage
:lock:As the amount of potential energy between two points on a circuit. One point has more charge than another:lock:
:star:Is a closed loop that electrons can travel in. A source of
electricity, such as a battery, provides electrical
energy in the circuit:star:
Resistance
:forbidden:Is the hindrance to the flow of charge through an electric circuit:forbidden:
Types of circuits
Parallel
:explode:Is a closed circuit in which the current divides into two or more paths before recombining to complete the circuit:explode:
Series
:explode:A series circuit is a closed circuit in which the current follows one path:explode:
Electromagnet
:recycle:A device consisting of an iron or steel core that is magnetized by electric current in a coil that surrounds it:recycle:
