Density

A measure of how much matter is packed into a given space. It's calculated by dividing mass by volume.

Volume

The amount of space an object occupies. It's the three-dimensional extent of an object.

Mass

The fundamental property of matter. It's a measure of the amount of substance in an object.

Voltage

The force that pushes electrons through a circuit. It's measured in volts (V).

Study Notes

Physical Quantities and Formulas

  • Density (D): Mass of a substance per unit volume. Measured in g/cm³. Formula: m/V (mass/volume)
  • Volume (V): Amount of space occupied by a substance. Measured in cm³.
  • Mass (m): Quantity of matter in a substance. Measured in grams (g).
  • Voltage (V): Electrical potential difference. Measured in Volts (V).
  • Resistance (R): Opposition to the flow of electric current. Measured in Ohms (Ω).
  • Current (I): Flow of electric charge. Measured in Amperes (A).
  • Energy (E): Capacity to do work. Measured in Joules (J).
  • Charge (Q): Amount of electric charge. Measured in Coulombs (C).
  • Time (t): Duration of an event. Measured in seconds (s).

Factors Affecting Resistance

  • Length: Shorter length results in lower resistance; longer length leads to higher resistance.
  • Thickness: Thicker material allows electrons to flow easily (lower resistance); thinner material restricts electron flow (higher resistance).
  • Temperature: Higher temperature leads to electrons moving faster (higher resistance); lower temperature means slower electron movement (lower resistance).
