Study Notes

Electromagnetic Radiation

  • Radio waves possess the lowest frequency within the electromagnetic spectrum.
  • All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum.
  • Violet exhibits the shortest wavelength within the visible spectrum.
  • Microwaves find common use in heating food.
  • All electromagnetic waves share the characteristic of being transverse waves.
  • The order of the electromagnetic spectrum, in terms of decreasing wavelength, is: radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and gamma rays.
  • Electromagnetic radiation can behave as both a wave and a particle.

Visible Spectrum

  • The mnemonic "ROYGBIV" helps remember the colors of the visible spectrum: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet.

Forces and Motion

  • The unit used to measure force is the Newton (N).
  • Acceleration is measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).
  • An object is in equilibrium when the net force acting upon it is zero.
  • Momentum is a measure of an object's mass in motion and is conserved in a closed system.
  • The unit N/kg represents acceleration in physical measurements.
  • An object with a mass of 2 kg and experiencing a force of 10 N will have an acceleration of 5 m/s².
  • The relationship between mass, acceleration, and force is represented by Newton's Second Law of Motion (F = ma).
  • The unit 'kg m/s' represents momentum.

Electrostatic Applications

  • The paint in electrostatic spraying carries a negative charge.
  • Ash and dust particles in an electrostatic precipitator are attracted to and collected on the earthed plates.
  • Modern inkjet printing utilizes electrostatic forces to direct ink droplets onto the paper.
  • Light causes electrons to be released from the drum of a photocopier, creating a positive charge.
  • When the earthed plates in an electrostatic precipitator are fully covered with dust, they must be cleaned to maintain efficiency.
  • The primary function of an electrostatic precipitator is to remove particulate matter from industrial exhaust gases.
  • Electrostatic spraying improves paint application by ensuring even and efficient coverage.
  • The bicycle frame in electrostatic spraying typically has a positive charge.
