Electric Potential Energy and Voltage

Voltmeter

Voltmeter

________- device that measures the amount of potential difference between two locations of charge separation.

Wet cell

________- electrolytes that take form in fluid.

Thermocouples

________- consists of a loop of two wires of different metals joined at both ends, if one end is heated or cooled, charge is separated, and potential difference /voltage is created.

Electrode

________- two terminals of a battery.

Terminal

________- end points of a battery where connection is made.

Friction

________- rubbing two materials together, work done by rubbing is converted into electrical energy stored into the separate charge.

Chemical energy

________ separates the positive and negative charges in a battery.

Piezoelectric crystals

________- when collided against, positive and negative charges are separated on either side of crystal.

Acceleration

________- increased rate or speed of something.

Potential Energy

________- energy stored within an object (measured in joules)

Potential Difference

________- amount of electric potential energy per one coulomb of charge.

Electrochemical Cell

________- cell that converts chemical energy into electrical energy stored in charges (typically called cells or batteries)

Electric Potential Energy

________- electrical energy stored within a battery.

Energy that charge possesses

________ is dependent on amount of charge and potential difference /voltage.
