Kinetic Energy
|
(Ek) is the energy of motion.
|
Potential energy
|
Energy possessed by an object by virtue of its position
|
Electrostatic energy
|
(Potential energy) that results from the interaction of charged particles. Eel= Q1Q2/ d
|
Amplitude A= d/F
|
vertical distance from mid-line of a wave - top of the peak/ bottom of trough
|
Frequency:
F= velocity/ wavelength
|
# of waves that pass through particular point in 1 sec. (Hz)
|
Wavelength (λ)
λ= wave speed/ F
|
distance between two points on a wave
|
Constructive Interference
|
When two waves of equal amplitude are in phase when they interact--- align with overlapping crest--- a wave with twice the amplitude results
|
Destructive interference
|
result of adding waves out of phase (flat line)
|
E= hc/ w
(planks constant * speed of light/ wavelength)
|
E= hc/ w
(planks constant * speed of light/ wavelength)
|
Diamagnetic
|
all electrons in an atom are paired
|
Paramagnetic
|
if there are unpaired electrons in an atom
