1the study of stationary charges
electric charges in stationary motion
electrostatics
2are the smallest unit of electric charge
electron and proton
3unlike charges attract, like charges repel
electrostatic law
4electrostatic force is directly proportional to the product of the electrostatic charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them
coulomb's law
5this is the stored energy
electric potential
6unit of electric potential
volts
7study of electric charges in motion
electrodynamics
8this is an electrodynamics phenomena
is the flow of electrons through a conductor
electricity/electric current
9types of materials
insulator
conductor
semiconductor
10this confines the electron flow ex. rubber
insulator
11materials that allows electrons to flow easily ex. copper
conductor
12materials that behaves as an insulator and in other conditions behaves as a conductor ex. silicon and germanium
semiconductor
13this is the property of some materials to exhibit no resistance below the critical temperature (mri machine)
superconductivity
14wire wrapped around an iron core
solenoid
15conductors made in a closed path
electric circuits
16electric current is measured in
ampere
17types of circuit
series and parallel
