physical science H

final exam part 1

QuestionAnswer
what is the current mold of the atom? the electron cloud
what are the three particles that make up the nucleus and their charges? protons(1+), neutrons(0), electrons(1-)
where are the particles located? protons and neutrons in the nucleus and the electron is the electron cloud
where is the majority of the mass of an atom located? in the nucleus
what property makes a certain element what it is? the number of protons(atomic mass)
what is a oxidation number? the number that shows how many electrons were lost or gained
why are the noble gases "happy" with electrons? because they have a full outer shell
how are the elements grouped? by how many valence electrons it has
The most reactive groups tend to be the alkali metals and the halogens. why? alkali metals need to loose 1 e- and halogens need to gain 1 e-
Velocity how fast the wave is moving
period the inverse of frequency
frequency the number of wavelengths in a given period of time
Amplitude the height of a wave that measures the energy
wavelength how long the wave is
kinetic Energy the energy of motion
potential energy is stored energy or energy in position
electromagnetic energy is a from of energy that does not require a medium to travel
the transformation between PE and KE if PE increases the KE decreases and if PE decreases KE increases
Define and give example of heat, light, and sound heat- thermal(fire) light- radiant(sun) sound is just sound
newtons first law inertia example: seat belt
newtons second law relationship between acceleration and mass F=ma example: a feather falling
newtons third law the conservation of Momentum example: rocket(every action has a reaction)
between alternating and direct current which has more electricity? alternating current
between alternating and direct current how is the direction of the flow different? one moves only one way(DC) and the other can alternate(AC)
how is static electricity produced? like charges repel and opposite charges attract
how can friction acquire a static charge? rubbing
how can induction acquire a static charge? a charged object brought near a neural object
how can conduction acquire a static charge? static transfers with touch
how is electricity and magnetism related Moving electrical charges produce magentic fields. Moving magents produce electrical fields
Parallel Circuits allow alternate pathways for the electrons flow
series circuits have only one way for the electrons to flow
voltage electrical push
amperage measurement of current how many electrons per second
how does magnetism relates to a motor and a generator? motor: turns electrical energy to mechanical generator: turns mechanical energy to electrical
how does magnetism relate to electromagnet? using electricity cause the domains in a metal to have a north and a south
what is the difference between speed and velocity? they are the same except velocity tells the direction
why do all objects accelerate? because of gravity
the gravitational force between to objects is affected by the __________ of each object and the _______ between them mass distance

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.
