Physics

QuestionAnswer
at rest fluid statics
in motion fluid dynamics
are substances that deform continuously under the application of force, no matter how small or weak this force may be Fluids
Newtonian fluids have constant viscosity
Non-Newtonian fluids have variable viscosity
defined as the force per unit area it is also known as “stress” force exerted by a fluid on an object in contact with it unit is expressed in Pascal Pressure
is the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field. Electric charge
is the force exerted by the weight of the air in the Earth's atmosphere on a given area. Atmospheric pressure
also known as “total” pressure equal to the sum of gauge pressure and atmospheric pressure absolute pressure
an upward force exerted by a fluid on an object that is wholly or partially immersed in it occurs because the pressure in the fluid increases with depth due to the difference of pressure between the top and bottom surfaces of a submerged object Buoyant force
is a branch of physics that deals with the study of heat and temperature and their relationship to energy and work. Thermal physics
When objects are heated or cooled, the temperature changes and some properties of the materials change. These properties are called Thermometric Properties
a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance or system the degree of hotness of an object TEMPERATURE
It is the energy which travels from high temperature to low temperature in a matter. It is also called thermal or internal energy. HEAT
refers to the amount of thermal energy transferred between two objects due to a temperature difference quantity of heat
is the transfer of heat through a material without the material itself moving Conduction
is the transfer of heat through the movement of a fluid (liquid or gas). Convection
is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves that do not require a medium to propagate Radiation
is a state in which two or more objects or systems are at the same temperature, so there is no net flow of heat between them Thermal equilibrium
refers to the tendency of materials to change in length in response to a change in temperature. Linear expansion
also known as superficial expansion, refers to the tendency of materials to change in area in response to a change in temperature. Area expansion
also known as cubical expansion, refers to the tendency of materials to change in volume in response to a change in temperature. Volume expansion
is a branch of physics that deals with the properties of stationary or slow-moving electric charges and their behavior together. Electrostatics
When you rub one material to another, their charges are changed by friction
When two objects that are not in equilibrium touch, charges move between them. Charging by Contact
Polarizing charges result in separation of the positively charged particles and the negatively charged particles. Charging by Polarization
Charging by induction simply means creating a net charge without contacting another object. Charging by Induction
When two charges are placed together with distance r between them, they both experience a force called electrostatic force
gives the magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charges separated by a distance r. Coulomb’s Law
states that for all linear systems, the total force is a vector sum of individual forces. superposition principle
is the rate of flow of the electric field through a given area Electric flux
is the energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric field Electric potential energy 
are components in a circuit which can store or release energy Capacitors
is the flow of electric charge. In an electric circuit, it is the rate of flow of electric charge past a point or region. Current
also known as electric potential difference, is the difference in electric potential between two points. Voltage
is the opposition to the flow of electric current in a circuit. Resistance
They are known ________because they do not lose their magnetic property once they are magnetized. Permanent Magnet
can be magnetized in the presence of a magnetic field. Temporary magnets
consist of a coil of wire wrapped around the metal core made from iron Electromagnets
is the region around a magnetic material or a moving electric charge within which the force of magnetism acts. Magnetic Field 
are a visual tool used to represent magnetic fields. They describe the direction of the magnetic force on a north monopole at any given position. Magnetic field lines
is a long coil of wire consisting of many loops or turns. If tightly wrapped, the magnetic field in its interior is almost uniform solenoid

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.
