1
New cards

gravitational potential

amount of workdone in bringing unit mass from infinity to a point of gravitational field

2
New cards

coulomb’s law

any two point charge that exert electrical force on eachother which is directly proportional to product of their charges and inversely proportional to square of their seperation

3
New cards

amplitude

maximum displacement of oscillating particle from equilibrium on either direction

4
New cards

magnetic flux

product of magnetic flux density and the cross sectional area perpendicular to direction of magnetic flux density

5
New cards

simple harmonic motion

its a periodic motion where net force is directly proportional to displacement from equilibrium and net force is always directed towards equilibrium

6
New cards

specific heat capacity

thermal energy required by unit mass to increase it’s temperature by 1 degree celsius or 1 kelvin

7
New cards

radian

angle subtended at centre by an arc which has equal length as radius

8
New cards

electro motive force (emf)

rate of change of magnetic flux linkage through a conductor

9
New cards

newton’s law of gravitation

any two point mass attract repel each other by a gravitational force which is directly proportional to product of their masses and inversely proportional to square of their separation

10
New cards

damped oscillation

oscillation of particle where total energy decreases gradually (as external forces are acting) and amplitude decreases exponentially

11
New cards

internal energy

sum of random kinetic energy and potential energy of all molecules

12
New cards

electric field

amount of electric force experienced by unit positive charge at a point of field

13
New cards

gravitational field strength

gravitational force experienced per unit mass at a point of field

14
New cards

magnetic flux density

amount of force experienced per unit length of conductor which is carrying unit current perpendicularly with the magnetic field

15
New cards

specific latent heat

thermal energy required by unit mass to change state at constant temperature

16
New cards

lenz’s law

induced emf/ current will always create an effect that opposes change in magnetic flux linkage

17
New cards

magnetic flux linkage

product of no. of turns in a coil and magnetic flux through each turn of the coil

18
New cards

resonance

when applied frequency is equal to natural frequency of a particle, then particle will vibrate with maximum amplitude

19
New cards

angular displacement

angle subtended at centre that is swept out by radius

20
New cards

faraday’s law of em induction

magnitude of induced emf is directly proportional to rate of change of magnetic flux linkage through conductor

21
New cards

smoothing

reducing vibration in the DC output by using capacitor

22
New cards

electric potential

amount of workdone in bringing unit positive small test charge from infinity to a point of electric field

23
New cards

hall probe

its used to measure magnetic flux density of a magnetic field

24
New cards

1st law of thermodynamics

increase/decrease in internal energy of a system is equal to sum of thermal energy supplied to/by the system and workdone on/by the system

25
New cards

magnetic field

region around any magnet or current carrying conductor where other magnets experience force

26
New cards

capacitor

its an electrical component which stores electrical energy by seperating charges

27
New cards

electromagnetic induction

when magnetic flux density changes through conductor.

28
New cards

rectification

the process of converting Alternating Current (ac) to Direct Current (dc)
