QuestionAnswer
If you INCREASE the voltage, ________ current will flow More
If you INCREASE the resistance, _______ current will flow Less
What does the ammeter do? Measures the current
What is current measured in? Amps
The ammeter must be placed in series/parallel in a circuit In series
What does a voltmeter measure Voltage
What is voltage measured in? Volts
What equation links current, voltage and resistance? Voltage = current x resistance (V = IR)
What equation links time, velocity and speed? V = s/t
What equation links acceleration, time taken and change in velocity? Acceleration = change in velocity/time taken
What is the formula for wave speed? Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
What is the formula for acceleration (more complicated one)? 2as = v2 - u2
On a velocity/time graph, distance travelled is shown by what? The area under the curve
What is the formula for frequency? F = 1/T
What is the formula for the speed of a wave? V = frequency x wavelength
When a wave travels into a more dense medium, what happens to the frequency? It stays the same
Materials through which light travels more slowly, have a __________ refractive index Higher
What medium has the lowest refractive index? A vacuum
What is the equation used to find the refractive index of a material? Refractive index = speed of light in vacuum/speed of light in material
What is the formula for refractive index using Snell’s Law? Refractive index = sin (angle of incidence)/sin (angle of refraction)

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
