Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta Respuesta
Electric field A region in which an object experiences a force, owing to the object being charged
Electric field lines map the path of... Positive charges
Electric charge symbol Q
Electric charge unit C (coulomb)
Electric field strength unit NC^-1
Electric field strength A vector quantity that has the same direction as the charge's force (F)
Electric potential energy The energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric field
Voltage/electrical potential difference The measure of specific potential energy (potential energy per unit charge) between two locations
Increasing supplied voltage between two parallel plates will... Increase electric field strength
Decreasing plate separation will... Increase electric field strength
Conductor A material or object that permits an electric current to flow easily
Electric current Movement/flow of electric charges in a circuit
Current symbol I
Current unit A
Circuit A closed loop that electrons can travel in. A source of electricity, such as a battery, provides electrical energy in the circuit
Resistance Quantity that describes how much an electrical component restricts the flow of current
Resistance is... Directly proportional to the wire's length and inversely proportional to cross-sectional areas of the wire
In a series circuit - Current is the same through all components - Voltage adds up to the supply - Resistors combine to give more resistance
In a parallel circuit - Current adds up to the supply - Voltage is the same across all components - Resistors combine to give less resistance
Like poles and charges... Repel
Unlike poles and charges... Attract
Magnetic field lines Exist in the space around a magnetized object because other magnetic objects experience a force near the first magnetized object
Magnetic field symbol B
Magnetic field strength unit T (tesla)
Right-hand grip rule -Magnetic field in direction of fingers -Current in direction of thumb -Direction of M.F is direction of curled fingers
Right-hand slap rule -Direction of the current is the direction of the thumb -Direction of field is fingers -Palm is direction of force
A wire experiences a force when... A current carrying wire is placed close to another magnet
Electromagnetic induction When a force moves a wire through a magnetic field, voltage is induced across the ends of the wire
Lenz's law The direction of the induced current always opposes the change producing it - results in the conservation of energy
A larger voltage is induced if -The magnet is stronger -The magnet is moved faster -There are more turns of wire -The solenoid has a soft iron core
