25 Questions

1. is a closed path along which charge particles are able to move

2. energy trapped in one location

3. process of breaking a vector into components

4. created by vibration of en electric charge; transverse only; does NOT require a medium

5. longitudinal wave that needs a medium

6. energy units for small amounts of energy

7. the height of a projectile when vertical velocity = 0

8. light that has many frequencies/colors

9. the rate at which the energy is converted into other forms

10. motion of an object traveling in a circular path at a constant speed; constantly changing direction; velocity is a tangent

11. when an object is vibrating at the same natural frequency of a second object forces that second object into vibrational motion; determined by object

12. stored energy held in readiness with a potential for doing work; related to position

13. a version of charging by induction that leaves a temporary charge creating opposite charge on objects' surfaces; can have contact but no transfer of charge

14. the time it takes an object to travel in one direction; T = time/# of rev. = 1/RPS

15. the ability to allow electrons to flow in a material; how bad a conductor is

16. comes from the sun and causes cancer and DNA damage

17. change in velocity over a period of time; speeds up, slows down, changes direction; m/s^2

18. a surface passing through the points of a wave that have the same phase and amplitude

19. rate of flow of charge through a surface

20. gain or reduce energy as a result of work; PE=W=KE

21. alterations in loudness due to interference; beat frequency=difference in frequency; like when out of tune

22. atoms align in same direction creating a magnetic field

23.
area under graph is work

24. an object shot through the air

25. the amount of time for one cycle to pass a given point; inverse of frequency; T=1/f
