Study Notes
Static Frictional Force
- Opposes the initiation of motion of a stationary object relative to a surface.
- Acts in the opposite direction of the applied force.
- Magnitude is directly proportional to the normal force.
Kinetic Frictional Force
- Opposes the motion of a moving object relative to a surface.
- Acts in the opposite direction of the object's velocity.
- Magnitude is directly proportional to the normal force.
Electromotive Force (EMF)
- Represents the total energy supplied per unit charge (Coulomb) by an electrical source, like a battery or generator.
- Measured in volts (V).
- Determines the maximum potential difference across the source's terminals when no current flows.
Current
- Refers to the rate of flow of electric charge.
- Measured in Amperes (A).
- Defined as the amount of charge passing a point in a conductor per unit time.
- Mathematically expressed as I = Q/t (where I is the current, Q is the charge, and t is the time).
Ohm's Law
- States that the potential difference (V) across a conductor is directly proportional to the current (I) flowing through it, provided the temperature remains constant.
- Mathematically expressed as V = IR (where R is the resistance of the conductor).
- A fundamental law in electricity that describes the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance.
Static Friction
- The force that opposes the tendency of motion of a stationary object relative to a surface.
Kinetic Friction
- The force opposing the motion of a moving object relative to a surface.
Electromotive Force (EMF)
- Represents the total energy supplied per coulomb of charge by a cell.
Electric Current
- Defined as the rate of flow of charge.
Ohm's Law
- States that the potential difference across a conductor is directly proportional to the current in the conductor, provided the physical conditions remain constant, including temperature.
