Physics: DC and AC Circuits - KAPLAN/MCAT in a box

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
show A term denoted by ε0 used in the calculation of capacitance, give by the equation C = ε0 A/d, where A is the area of one plate and d is the distance between the plates.  
🗑
Node   show
🗑
show Type of wave, such as sound, whose oscillation is along the direction of it's motion  
🗑
show A dimensionless number that indicates the factor by which capacitance is increased when a dielectric is placed in between the plates of a capacitor, given by C' = KC, where C' is the new capacitance.  
🗑
Direct Current   show
🗑
show A conducting pathway that contains one or more voltage sources that drive an electric current along that pathway and through connected passive circuit elements (such as resistors).  
🗑
Electromotive Force   show
🗑
show The voltage created by a potential difference between the two terminals of a cell when no current is flowing.  
🗑
show A material in which electrons canot move freely.  
🗑
Kirchhoff's Laws (A)   show
🗑
Kirchhoff's Laws (B)   show
🗑
Ohm' Law   show
🗑
show Intrinsic property of a conductor denoted by R = ρ L/A, where L is the length of the conductor and A is its cross-sectional area.  
🗑
RMS Current   show
🗑
RMS Voltage   show
🗑
show The point of maximum displacement from the equilibrium position.  
🗑
Conductor   show
🗑
Dielectric   show
🗑
Power Dissipated by Resistor   show
🗑
show The natural tendency of a conductor to block current flow to a certain extent resulting in loss of energy or potential. Resistance is equal to the ratio of the voltage applied to the resulting current.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
