James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) was one of the greatest scientists who have ever lived. To him, we owe the most significant discovery of our age - the theory of electromagnetism. He is rightly acclaimed as the father of modern physics. He also made fundamental contributions to mathematics, astronomy, and engineering. What area of physics is Maxwell most known for?
Electromagnetism
Astronomy
Astrology
Quantum Physics
Which force holds the protons together despite them wanting to repel?
Strong nuclear force
Weak nuclear force
Gravitational Force
Electromagnetic Force
This is responsible for radioactive decay. The force allows the nucleus of an unstable (radioactive) atom to release nuclear radiation. A neutron can change into a proton and ejects an electron.
Weak nuclear force
Strong nuclear force
Gravitational force
Electrostatic force
What happens to the magnetic force when two magnets are brought closer together?
The force increases
The force decreases
Two electrons will...
repel
attract
Opposite charges (a proton and electron) will...
repel
attract
A conductor has...
high conductivity
low conductivity
An insulator has...
high conductivity
low conductivity
A nuclear reactor converts nuclear energy into ____ energy which then makes steam in a generator to create electricity.
thermal (heat)
potential energy
In parallel, the currents are different because there are multiple paths for the electricity to flow.
True
False
In series, the current is the same because there are multiple paths for the electricity to flow.
True
False
True or false: Light acts as both a wave and a particle.
True
False
The first law of thermodynamics, also known as the Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. The mass-energy equivalence shows that conservation of mass is a restatement of
First Law of Thermodynamics
Charles' Law
Kirchoff's Law
Newton's First Law of Motion
