Arrow Glossory of Physics

A



Absorption
It happens when wave passes through a medium and gives up some of its energy.

Acceleration
Acceleration is the rate of increase of velocity. Acceleration tells you how much faster or slower a moving object gets every second. A negative acceleration is called a deceleration. The SI Unit of acceleration is the metre per second per second (ms-2)

Acceleration due to Gravity

This is the acceleration caused by the gravitational pull of a planet. On Earth, the strength of the acceleration due to gravity is roughly 10 ms-2. The acceleration due to gravity is often given the symbol 'g'.

Accommodation

Accommodation relates to the ability of the eye to change its focal length and so focus on objects at a range of distances. To focus on a close object, the eye lens will be fat (having a short focal length). To focus on a far object, the lens will be pulled into a thin shape having a long focal length. Failure of accommodation gives rise to long-sightedness and short-sightedness.

Activity

The activity of a sample of radioactive material is the number of disintegrations per second taking place in that particular sample. The SI unit of activity is the becquerel (Bq).

Aerodynamic

Aerodynamic objects have minimal air resistance. This means that they can move at greater speed through the air. Remember that as objects go faster the aerodynamic drag increases. Therefore, an aerodynamic object will be able to travel faster than a non-aerodynamic one!

Alpha (a) Radiation

a (alpha) radiation consists of slow moving helium nuclei. These nuclei are released during the disintegration of an unstable nucleus. a radiation will be stopped by a few centimetres of air, or a sheet of paper. It is a strongly ionising radiation, due in part to its relatively large mass - it is about 8000 times as massive as the electrons in b radiation! The helium nuclei are positively charged.

Alternating Current (a.c.)

Electrical current continually changes direction in an a.c. power supply (as opposed to direct current (d.c.))


Alternator

This is a device for generating a.c. electricity. It consists of rotor coils (with a d.c. supply) and stator coils which produce the a.c. electricity.

Ampere

The ampere is the SI unit of electrical current. At a simple level it can be defined as the number of coulombs of electrical charge flowing per second.

Amplifier

An amplifier is a component of an electronic system, such as a radio or TV which makes all the input signals louder. Ideally, an amplifier will increase the amplitude of all input signals by the same factor. Amplifiers require a power supply which can be battery or mains. The voltage gain or the power gain can be used to describe how much amplification is taking place.

Amplitude

This is the height of a wave, measured vertically from the centre line to a crest or a trough. The SI unit is the metre, although in some contexts amplitudes may be given in volts.

Amplitude Modulation

Amplitude modulation refers to the changing of the amplitude of a radio-frequency or microwave frequency carrier wave. The other method of modulation is called frequency modulation.


Analogue

Analogue signals should be compared with digital signals. Analogue signals are continuous. As an example, a microphone is an analogue input device. This is because it can produce a range of voltage levels.

AND Gate

An AND gate is a logical device. It usually takes two inputs (although more are possible) and produces only one output. The logic state of the output depends on the logic state of the inputs.


Angle of Incidence

The angle between the normal line and a ray or wave incident to a surface.

Angular magnification
The factor by which an image's apparent angular size is increased (or decreased). Cf. magnification.

Angular momentum

A measure of rotational motion; a conserved quantity for a closed system.

Angle of Reflection

The angle between the normal line and a ray or wave reflected from a surface.


Asteroid

An asteriod is a lump of rock which orbits around the sun. (The biggest asteroids are about 100km across, although many are 1km or less across. Asteroids orbit the Sun in the asteroid belt, between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.)

Atom

The basic unit of one of the chemical elements.

Average Speed

The average speed of an object is defined as the distance traveled divided by the time elapsed.

Remember that average speed is different from instantaneous speed.

Audio Wave

A sound wave, but usually in the context of modulation and radio transmission


Axis
An arbitrarily chosen point used in the definition of angular momentum. Any object whose direction changes relative to the axis is considered to have angular momentum. No matter what axis is chosen, the angular momentum of a closed system is conserved.

Background Radiation

Background radiation is the radiation which occurs naturally in the rocks, air and water around us.

Battery
A battery is a number (or battery) of cells, connected in series with the positive terminal of one cell connected to the negative of the next. Batteries provide a d.c.(direct current) source of electrical energy.

Beam

The particle stream produced by an accelerator usually clustered in bunches.

b (beta) radiation

b (beta) radiation consists of fast moving electrons. These electrons are produced as a result of transitions that take place in unstable nuclei. b radiation can be stopped by a few millimetres of aluminium. It is an ionising radiation, not as strongly ionising as a (alpha) radiation.


Big-bang Theory

The 'big-bang theory' of cosmology tries to explain the origin of the universe as an explosive event, where space, time and matter came into being.


Black Hole

A collapsed star from which no light can escape, due to the intense gravitational field.


Block Diagram

In electronics, a block diagram provides a simple way of analysing how a system works. Block diagrams don't show details of how components work, but simply show how information or signals should travel through the system. They are usually drawn using rectangles and arrows.

C



Capacitor


A capacitor is a device which can store electrical charge. Capacitors are often used to introduce a time delay in electronic circuits. The SI unit of capacitance is the farad.

Carrier Wave

Carrier waves are used to carry information from transmitter to receiver. Thecarrier wave will be radio or microwave frequency. There are two methods of using the carrier wave to carry information - amplitude modulation and frequency modulation. In radio transmissions for example, the carrier is of a much higher frequency than the audio wave which is to be transmitted. The higher the frequency of the carrier, the higher the quality of the transmitted signal.

Cathode rays

Negatively charged particles (electrons) that are emitted from a negative terminal in an evacuated glass tube.

Cell

In electricity, a cell is a source of d.c. electricity. A cell can be made using two different metals inserted into a salt solution, for example. The metals react with the salt solution at different rates and in so doing, generate a small electrical current. Many cells can be combined to produce a battery of cells.


Celsius scale of temperature


In the celsius scale of temperature, the ice-point is taken as taken as the lower fixed point (0 deg C ) and the steam-point is taken as the upper fixed point (100 deg C). The interval between the ice point and steam point is divided into 100 equal divisions. Thus, the unit division on this scale is 1degC. This scale was earlier called the centigrade scale. 1 deg C = 9/5 deg F.

Center of mass

The balance point of an object.

Centigrade

Alternate name for the Celsius scale.

Centrifugal force

An apparent outward force on an object following a circular path that. This force is a consequence of the third law of motion.

Centripetal force

The force required to pull an object out of its natural straight-line path and into a circular path.

Chain reaction

A self-sustaining reaction where some of the products are able to produce more reactions of the same kind; in a nuclear chain reaction neutrons are the products that produce more nuclear reactions in a self-sustaining series

Charge

A numerical rating of how strongly an object participates in electrical forces.

Chemical Potential Energy

Chemical energy is a form of potential energy because it is stored energy. Energy stored in food, torch batteries and explosives like dynamite is all chemical energy. Chemical energy is released in a chemical reaction (like combustion of explosives or respiration in plant and animal cells).

Circuit

An electrical device in which charge can come back to its starting point and be recycled rather than getting stuck in a dead end.

Circular Motion

The motion of a body along a circular path is called circular motion.

Clock Pulse Generator

A simple circuit using a capacitor, resistor and transistor. The circuit generates 'clock pulses' - simply a regular sequence of logic LO and logic HI. The capacitor charges and discharges through the resistor. As the capacitor charges to a certain level, the inverter's input goes HI and its output goes LO. This this causes the capacitor to start discharging. When its voltage gets low enough, the inverter output goes back to HI and the cycle starts again.

By increasing the resistance or increasing the capacitance, the pulses can be generated more slowly.

Coefficient of cubical expansion

The increase in volume of a substance per unit original volume per degree rise in temperature is called its coefficient of cubical expansion. The SI unit of coefficient of cubical expansion is K-1.

Coefficient of linear expansion

The increase in length per unit original length per degree rise in temperature is called the coefficient of linear expansion. The SI unit of the coefficient of linear expansion is K-1.

Coherent

A light wave whose parts are all in phase with each other.

Collision

An interaction between moving objects that lasts for a certain time.

Comet

A comet is a small body orbiting our Sun, usually at great distance from Earth and with a highly elliptical orbit. They are composed of 'ices' and dust. As a comet approaches the inner solar system, the heat of the Sun vapourises volatile material from the surface and pushes the material directly away from the Sun. This gives rise to the 'ion tail', usually a ghostly blue colour and quite straight, it always points directly away from the Sun and has nothing to do with the direction of motion of the comet. A second tail exists, usually white and curved. This is dust which falls off the comet and is left in track of its orbit.


Component

The part of a velocity, acceleration, or force that is along one particular coordinate axis.

Compression

A part of a longitudinal wave in which the density of the particles of the medium is higher than the normal density is called a compression.

Compressive stress

A force that tends to compress the surface as the earth's plates move into each other.

Concave

Describes a surface that is hollowed out like a cave.

Condensation (sound)

A compression of gas molecules; a pulse of increased density and pressure that moves through the air at the speed of sound.

The transfer of heat from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature by increased kinetic energy moving from molecule to molecule.

Constructive interference

The condition in which two waves arriving at the same place, at the same time and in phase, add amplitudes to create a new wave.

Commonly known as the fusebox, the consumer unit is the part of the meter board which separates the incoming electrical supply into the various lighting and ring main circuits. Each of these circuits is protected by either a fuse or miniature circuit breaker (MCB).

Control rods

Rods inserted between fuel rods in a nuclear reactor to absorb neutrons and thus control the rate of the nuclear chain reaction.

Convection

The transfer of heat from one place to another by the motion of a gas or a liquid across the heated surface.

Convex

Describes a surface that bulges outward.

Conventional current

Opposite to electron current-that is, considers an electric current to consist of a drift of positive charges that flow from the positive terminal to the negative terminal of a battery.

Coulomb

Unit used to measure quantity of electric charge; equivalent to the charge resulting from the transfer of 6.24 billion particles such as the electron.

Coulomb's law

Relationship between charge, distance, and magnitude of the electrical force between two bodies.

Covalent bond

A chemical bond formed by the sharing of a pair of electrons.

Critical angle

Limit to the angle of incidence when all light rays are reflected internally.

D



Damping

The dissipation of a vibration's energy into heat energy, or the frictional force that causes the loss of energy.

Deceleration

Deceleration basically means slowing down - reducing speed. A negative answer for an acceleration would actually be a deceleration. Like acceleration, deceleration is also measured in ms-2.

Decibel (dB) Scale

The decibel scale is used to measure the volume (intensity or loudness) of sound. The abbreviation for this unit is dB.

Decoder

The decoder section of a radio essentially removes the carrier wave from the modulated signal, leaving only the audio wave which is then amplified. In TVs there are two separate decoders - one for the picture and one for the sound.

Deflection Plates

Deflection plates are used to direct the electron beam to all parts of the cathode ray tube of an oscilloscope. There are two sets of plates, one set for controlling horizontal movement of the beam and the other set for vertical movement. Each set of plates controls the beam by having a certain voltage applied across the plates.

Destructive interference

The condition in which two waves arriving at the same point at the same time out of phase add amplitudes to create zero total disturbance.

Dew point temperature

The temperature at which condensation begins.

Dew

Condensation of water vapor into droplets of liquid on surfaces.

Diffraction

Diffraction is a wave phenomenon - i.e. all types of wave can diffract. Diffraction means the bending of wave (change in direction) and it occurs whenever a wave passes near to an obstacle. Longer wavelength waves diffract through a greater angle than shorter wavelength waves.

Diffuse reflection

Light rays reflected in many random directions, as opposed to the parallel rays reflected from a perfectly smooth surface such as a mirror.

Digital

Digital can refer to electronic signals or to components of an electronic system. Digital signals have only two voltage levels, described as 'HI' and 'LO', or 'OFF' and 'ON'. In a real component, 'HI' might be represented by +5V d.c. and 'LO' by 0V d.c. A digital component is one which works with only digital signals. Here are some examples of digital components: LED (output), photodiode (input), switch (input).

Diode

A diode is a semi-conductor device. Diodes will allow current to pass through them in only one direction.





Direct current

An electrical current that always moves in one direction.

Direct proportion

When two variables increase or decrease together in the same ratio (at the same rate).

Dispersion

The effect of spreading colors of light into a spectrum with a material that has an index of refraction that varies with wavelength.

Displacement

The change in the position of an object in a particular direction is called displacement. Displacement may also be defined as the shortest distance between the initial and final position of a moving body. It is a vector quantity.

Distance

The actual length of the path traveled by a body irrespective of the direction is called the distance traveled. It is a scalar quantity.

Doppler effect

An apparent shift in the frequency of sound or light due to relative motion between the source of the sound or light and the observer.


Dose Equivalent

This is the biological risk due to exposure to radiation. The SI unit of dose equivalent is the sievert (Sv).

Double Insulation

An electrical appliance which is double insulated does not have an earth wire fitted. The appliance is designed in such a way that the electrical parts can never come into contact with the outer casing of the device. Common double insulated appliances are hair dryers, radios and cassette players.

A wet double insulated appliance is exceptionally dangerous - water is a good conductor of electricity and will easily reach the live electrical components within the case. Any human user touching the casing will then receive an electric shock. It is important to note that the human conductivity is increased when hands are wet, allowing a greater current to flow through the casualty.

Drag

Drag is a type of friction force usually associated with movement through a fluid like air or water. Drag forces generally increase at high speeds.

Driving force

An external force that pumps energy into a vibrating system.

Dynamo

A device (a traducer) which converts kinetic energy into electrical energy. Dynamos are often used to produce a.c. electricity on a push-bike. Unlike a full-blown generator, the rotor coil is replaced with rotating permanent magnets. These magnets rotate near to the stator coil, (wrapped around a soft iron core) and cause a small current to flow (via electromagnetic induction).

Electrical resistance

The property of opposing or reducing electric current.

Electrolyte

Water solution of ionic substances that conducts an electric current.

Electromagnet

An electromagnet is a solenoid with an iron core inserted into it. If a current flows in the coil, a magnetic field is generated.

Electromagnetic Spectrum

This includes Gamma, X-rays, Ultraviolet, Visible, Infra-red, Microwave and Radio - in order of increasing wavelength.

Beams of electrons are used in TV sets where they are called cathode rays.

Electro negativity.

The comparative ability of atoms of an element to attract bonding electrons.

Element

A pure chemical substance that cannot be broken down into anything simpler by chemical or physical means.

Energy

Escape Velocity

The minimum velocity with which an object must be thrown upwards so as to overcome the gravitational pull and escape into space, is called escape velocity (V esc ). The escape velocity depends upon the mass and radius of the planet/star. It does not depend upon the mass of the body thrown up.

Equilibrium

Evaporation

Process of more molecules leaving a liquid for the gaseous state than returning from the gas to the liquid. It can occur at any given temperature from the surface of a liquid.

F




Farad

The farad (F) is the SI Unit of capacitance.

Fahrenheit scale of temperature

On the Fahrenheit scale, the ice point, the ice point (lower fixed point) is taken as 32? F and the steam point (upper fixed point) is taken as 212 deg F. The interval between these two points is divided into 180 equal divisions. Thus, unit division on the Fahrenheit scale is 1deg F. The temperatures on the Celsius scale and the Fahrenheit scale are related by the relationship, C/100 = (F - 32) / 180. The temperature of a normal healthy person is 37 deg C or 98.6 deg F.


Fibrescope

Fibrescope are sometimes called endoscopes. A flexible fiber-optic instrument used to view an object or area, such as a body cavity, that would otherwise be inaccessible.


Field

A property of a point in space describing the forces that would be exerted on a particle if it was there.

Filament Lamp

These lamps rely on an incandescent metal filament to produce light. The interior of the lamp is filled with an inert gas in order to stop the filament from corroding. An electrical current, passed through the filament makes it extremely hot. When sufficiently hot, the filament itself will emit light radiation. Tungsten metal is chosen for the filament due to its high melting point of about 3956 Celsius.


First law of motion

Every object remains at rest or in a state of uniform straight-line motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force.

Fission Process

This usually refers to nuclear fission, where an atomic nucleus splits apart into smaller pieces. Fission should not be confused with fusion. When a heavy, unstable nucleus undergoes fission, energy is released as heat. In nuclear power stations, uranium is often used as the fissile material, where a nuclear chain reaction is controlled to release energy.

Flex

The flex allows electrical current to flow into domestic appliances from the mains socket. The flex should be correctly wired to a plug.

Fluids

Matter that has the ability to flow or be poured; the individual molecules of a fluid are able to move, rolling over or by one another.

Fluid friction

A friction force in which at least one of the object is a fluid (i.e. either a gas or a liquid).

Fluorescent Lamps

These lamps produce light by passing electrical current through a mercury vapour at low pressure. The electrical current excites ("energises") the electrons of the mercury atoms. These electrons quickly give up their energy as light. The light which is produced is invisible ultra-violet and would be useless. To get round this problem, the inside of the tube is coated with fluorescent paint, which converts U.V. light to visible light.
Fluorescent lamps are more efficient than filament lamps as they waste less energy as heat.


Focal Length

The focal length of lens is measured in meters. It is the distance from the centre of the lens to the point at which rays passing through the lens meet (i.e. focus). It is related to lens power.

Force

Forces can cause an object to speed up, slow down, change direction or change shape (if they are unbalanced). Forces are either push forces or pull forces. Force is a vector quantity.The SI unit of force is the newton,denoted by N.

Force of gravitation

The force with which two objects attract each other by virtue of their masses is called the force of gravitation. The force of attraction acts even if the two objects are not connected to each other. It is an action-at-a-distance force.

Fossil Fuel

Fossil fuels are coal, oil and gas. They are non-renewable resources. Fossil fuels come from ancient remains of plants and animals, compressed and heated over many millenia. The combustion of fossil fuels is now (nearly) universally accepted as causing global warming. They are well known to produce acid rain. Most of the world's energy is still produced from fossil fuel.

Fracture strain

An adjustment to stress in which materials crack or break as a result of the stress.

Free fall

The motion of a body towards the earth when no other force except the force of gravity acts on it is called free fall. All freely falling bodies are weightless.

Freezing point

The temperature at which a phase change of liquid to solid takes place; the same temperature as the melting point for a given substance.

Frequency

The frequency of a regular event is the number of times the event occurs in a given time.The SI unit of frequency is the hertz (Hz) (equivalent to 'per second' or s-1).

Frequency (of waves)

The number of waves produced per second is called its frequency.

Frequency (of oscillations)

The number of oscillations made by an oscillating body per second is called the frequency.

Frequency Modulation

Frequency modulation refers to the changing of the frequency of a radio-frequency or microwave frequency carrier wave. The other method of modulation is called amplitude modulation.

Friction

Friction is a force which tends to make moving objects slow down. Friction also prevents objects from slipping over one another. Friction due to fluid flow is called drag.

Fridge

A fridge is an example of a heat pump. It extracts heat energy from inside the fridge cabinet and releases it into the room. The basic principle relies on the latent heat of vaporisation of a coolant liquid. The coolant is evaporated within the pipes inside the cabinet - the heat required for this is taken from the cabinet itself, with the result that the cabinet becomes cooler.

Fuel rod

Long zirconium alloy tubes containing fissionable material for use in a nuclear reactor.

Fundamental charge

Smallest common charge known; the magnitude of the charge of an electron and a proton, which is 1.60 x 10^-19 coulomb.

Fundamental frequency

The lowest frequency (longest wavelength) that can set up standing waves in an air column or on a string.

Fundamental properties

A property that cannot be defined in simpler terms other than to describe how it is measured; the fundamental properties are length, mass, time, and charge.

Fuse

A fuse, where fitted, is designed to protect the flex (and not the appliance) from current overload and the associated risk of fire. The fuse rating should always be less than that of the flex which it is protecting. This will make sure that it blows before the flex melts. If the fuse in the plug blows, it is likely to be because of a fault in the appliance which is drawing too much current.
The fuse (and switch) should always be connected to the live wire in a plug.

Fusion

A nuclear reaction in which two nuclei stick together to form one bigger nucleus.

G



g

Symbol representing the acceleration of an object in free fall due to the force of gravity; its magnitude is 9.80 m/sec^2 (32.0 ft/sec^2).

Galaxy

A grouping of about approximately 100 billion stars, held together by their own gravity. We live in the Milky Way galaxy.

Gamma (g) Radiation

g (gamma) radiation is high frequency electromagnetic radiation. It is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Gamma radiation carries no mass, no charge, travels at the speed of light. (It can be thought of as being made of particles called photons or as being a wave). It can be stopped by several centimetres of lead or a few metres of concrete. Gamma radiation is an ionising radiation, but is not as strongly ionising as a radiation. It is released during the disintegration of an unstable nucleus.
For the purposes of treating cancer, medical gamma rays from cobalt-60 are used.

Gamma Camera

This is a device used to detect the gamma radiation from a patient during an examination using a radioactive tracer. Since gamma radiation passes straight through most materials, it is not possible to build a camera with glass lenses or mirrors. Instead an array of holes drilled in a thick layer of lead is placed between the actual gamma detectors and the patient. This allows an image to be built up. Scintillation counters are used to detect the radiation after it has passed through the holes in the commutator.

Gases

A phase of matter composed of molecules that are relatively far apart moving freely in a constant, random motion and have weak cohesive forces acting between them, resulting in the characteristic indefinite shape and indefinite volume of a gas.

Gas Discharge Lamps

These lamps produce light by passing electrical current through a gas at low pressure. The electrical current excites ("energises") the electrons of the atoms in the gas. These electrons quickly give up their energy as light. Sodium is often used (in street lights) or an inert gas for colourful advertising lights.
Discharge lamps are more efficient than filament lamps as they waste less energy as heat.


Geiger-Muller tube

This is a device used to detect the presence of radiation. It relies on ionisation to produce tiny bursts of current which can be counted by a rate meter.

Geostationary

'Geostationary' refers to a satellite of planet Earth. Such a satellite will appear to hover above the surface of the Earth, since it is placed in an orbit with a period of 24 hours.

Geothermal Energy

This is a renewable energy resource, unlike fossil fuels. In some parts of the world, hot subsurface rock heats water which reaches the surface and can be used for heating or electrical power generation.

Generator

A machine which uses motion to produce electrical energy. Sometimes called an alternator. A generator is like a dynamo, but with the permanent rotor magnets replaced with (d.c) rotor coils (electromagnets). The stator coils have an a.c. induced within them.

Gold Grain

Radioactive gold grains are used in the treatment of cancer. Gold (which is unreactive) doped with radioactive (gamma emitting) nuclei is implanted in a patient, near or in a tumour. The radiation will destroy or damage cells near the grain. The radioactive material chosen will have a short half-life so that the grain's activity level will drop to background levels after several days.

Gram-atomic weight

The mass in grams of one mole of an element that is numerically equal to its atomic weight.

Gram-formula weight.

The mass in grams of one mole of a compound that is numerically equal to its formula weight.

Gram-molecular weight.

The gram-formula weight of a molecular compound.

Gravity

A general term for the phenomenon of attraction between things having mass. The attraction between our planet and a human-sized object causes the object to fall.

Gravitational constant G

The constant G which appears in the equation for Newton's law of gravitation is called the universal constant of gravitation or the gravitational constant. Numerically it is equal to the force of gravitation, which acts between two bodies of mass 1kg each separated by a distance of 1m. The value of G is 6.67×10-11 Nm²/kg².

Gravitational Field

The Earth generates a gravitational field which attracts all other masses. It is a called a force field - the word field means that the force changes as you move away from the surface of the Earth (in fact the force becomes steadily less as you move away from the surface of the Earth). It is the combined mass of all particles on Earth which cause the Earth's gravitational field. The strength of the field is measured in Nkg-1.

Gravitational Potential Energy

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field.

If a mass is lifted up then its potential energy is given as follows:

Ep = mgh

Ep is the potential energy

m is the mass in kilograms

g is the strength of the gravitational field (10ms-2 on Earth)

h is the height through which the object is lifted

Greenhouse effect

The process of increasing the temperature of the lower parts of the atmosphere through redirecting energy back toward the surface; the absorption and reemission of infrared radiation by carbon dioxide, water vapor, and a few other gases in the atmosphere.

Ground state

Energy state of an atom with electrons at the lowest energy state possible for that atom.

H



Half-life

The half-life of a radioactive material is the time taken for its activity level to drop by a half. Half-life is measured using any unit of time (seconds, hours).

Heat

Heat is a form of energy, which makes a body hot or cold. Heat is measured by the temperature-effect it produces in any material body. The SI unit of heat is Joule( J).

Heat Energy

Heat is a form of energy and is not to be confused with temperature. There is no such thing as 'cold energy'. At the molecular level, heat energy is transferred from particle to particle by vibration (this is called conduction). A particle vibrating violently can be said to have a lot of heat energy. As well as by conduction, heat can also be transferred by convection or radiation.

Heater

The operation of a bar heater is very similar indeed to a filament lamp. The difference is in the thickness of the 'filament' or element of the heater. Curiously, heaters operate at a lower temperature than lamps, but produce far more heat - as infra-red radiation.

Heat Pump

This is a device which can move heat energy from a colder object to a hotter one, but requiring an external energy source to do it. A fridge is an example of a heat pump. Due to the second law of thermodynamics, a heat pump can never be 100% efficient.

Heat death of the Universe

Time at which no work will be able to be done because all heat energy in the Universe will be evenly distributed (so that no further increase in entropy is possible).

Heisenberg uncertainty principle

You cannot measure both the exact momentum and the exact position of a subatomic particle at the same time-when the more exact of the two is known, the less certain you are of the value of the other.

Hertz

Unit of frequency; equivalent to one cycle per second.

Horsepower

Measurement of power defined as a power rating of 550 ft-lb/sec.

Hypothesis

A tentative explanation of a phenomenon that is compatible with the data and provides a framework for understanding and describing that phenomenon.






I



Ice-point

It is the melting point of pure melting ice under 1 Atmospheric pressure. The ice point is taken as the lower fixed point ( 0 deg C or 32 deg F ) for temperature scales.

Image

A place where an object appears to be, because the rays diffusely reflected from any given point on the object have been bent so that they come back together and then spread out again from the image point, or spread apart as if they had originated from the image.

Impulse

The impulse acting on a body is equal to the product of the force acting on the body and the time for which it acts. If the force is variable, the impulse is the integral of Fdt from t0 to t1. The impulse of a force acting for a given time interval is equal to change in momentum produced over that interval. J=m(v-u), assuming that the mass m remains constant while the velocity changes from v to u. The SI units of impulse are kg m/s.

Impulsive force

The force which acts on a body for a very short time but produces a large change in the momentum of the body is called an impulsive force.

Incandescent

Matter emitting visible light as a result of high temperature for example, a light bulb, a flame from any burning source, and the sun are all incandescent sources because of high temperature.

Incident ray

Line representing the direction of motion of incoming light approaching a boundary.

Independence

The lack of any relationship between two random events.

Index of refraction

The ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in a material.

Induction

The production of an electric field by a changing magnetic field, or vice-versa.

Inert

A chemical element is inert if it does not react with anything. Examples are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon. Inert gases can be used in filament lamps to protect the filament from destruction due corrosion.

Inertia

The property of matter that causes it to resist any change in its state of rest or of uniform motion. There are three kinds of inertia- inertia of rest, inertia of motion and inertia of direction. The mass of a body is a measure of its inertia.The SI unit for inertia is the kilogram.

Inertial frame

A frame of reference that is not accelerating, one in which Newton's first law is true.

Infrasonic

Sound waves having too low a frequency to be heard by the human ear; sound having a frequency of less than 20 Hz.

Infrared

Infrared radiation is invisible. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation, with a wavelength just longer than that of visible red light. Infrared light is use in telecommunications (via optical fibres). It is used in medicine to diagnose illness (thermograms) and accelerate healing in physiotherapy. Infrared radiation can be thought of as 'heat rays'.

Input Device

The first part of an electronic system, an input device typically processes requests from a human user. For example in a CD player, the 'ON' button and volume controls (potentiometer) are all input devices. Other input devices include switches, thermistors, LDRs, photodiodes.

Instantaneous

This means an event which occurs over a very short (infinitesimal) period of time. It usually refers to speed, i.e. instantaneous speed as opposed to average speed.

Instantaneous Speed

The speed at any particular stage or time during a journey. Instantaneous speed can be calculated by measuring short distances and time intervals.

Insulator

A material which does not usually conduct electricity. Air, for example is an insulator. Insulators have a very high (ideally infinite) resistance. Given a suitably high voltage, insulators can be forced to conduct ,for example lightning during a thunderstorm.

Insulation

A nonconducting material designed to reduce the transfer of energy or electric current between two materials.

Intensity

A measure of the energy carried by a wave.

Interference

Phenomenon of light where the relative phase difference between two light waves produces light or dark spots, a result of light's wavelike nature.

Intermolecular forces

Forces of interaction between molecules.

Internal energy

Sum of all the potential energy and all the kinetic energy of all the molecules of an object.

Invariant

A quantity that does not change when transformed.

Inverse proportion

The relationship in which the value of one variable increases while the value of the second variable decreases at the same rate (in the same ratio).

Inverter (NOT gate)

A processing device within an electronic system, the NOT gate is a single input logic gate which 'inverts' its input. A logic 'HI' input will become a logic 'LOW' output and visa-versa. Here is the truth table:
A Z
0 1
1 0


Ion

An electrically charged atom or molecule.

Ionization

Process of forming ions from molecules.

Ionized

An atom or a particle that has a net charge because it has gained or lost electrons.

Isostasy

A balance or equilibrium between adjacent blocks of crust.

Isotope

L



Lamp

A device intended to produce light energy. Modern lamps convert electrical energy to light energy via one of two main mechanisms - the filament lamp or the gas discharge lamp.

Laser

The word laser was originally an abbreviation for Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Lasers have countless applications, many in medicine and communications. Lasers produce light which is monochromatic, coherent and tightly focussed. Lasers are used in the technique of photocoagulation (used to treat retinae).

Latent heat of vaporization

The heat absorbed when one gram of a substance changes from the liquid phase to the gaseous phase, or the heat released when one gram of gas changes from the gaseous phase to the liquid phase.

Latent heat of fusion

The quantity of heat required to convert one unit mass of a substance from solid to the liquid state at its melting point (without any change in its temperature) is called its latent heat of fusion (L). The SI unit of latent heat of fusion is J kg-1.

Latent heat

Latent heat, or hidden heat, is heat that is taken up and stored when a substance changes state from a solid to a liquid, from a liquid to a gas, or from a solid directly to a gas. It cannot be measured by a thermometer.

Law of Conservation of Energy

The law of conservation of energy states that energy may neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore the sum of all the energies in the system is a constant.

Law of conservation of mass

Same as law of conservation of matter; mass, including single atoms, is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Law of conservation of matter

Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.


Law of conservation of momentum

The total momentum of a group of interacting objects remains constant in the absence of external forces.

Light

Anything that can travel from one place to another through empty space and can influence matter, but is not affected by gravity.


Light Dependent Resistor (LDR)

LDRs are designed so that their resistance depends on the intensity(brightness) of light falling on them.





Light Emitting Diode

LEDs are simply diodes which emit light when connected correctly to a power supply.




Light-year

The light-year (ly) is a unit of distance which is useful in astronomy. It is the distance which light (or any other form of electromagnetic radiation) travels in one year,approximately 9.5 x 10^11 km.

Line spectrum

Narrow lines of color in an otherwise dark spectrum.

Lines of force

Lines drawn to make an electric field strength map, with each line originating on a positive charge and ending on a negative charge; each line represents a path on which a charge would experience a constant force and lines closer together means a stronger electric field.

Liquids

A phase of matter composed of molecules that have interactions stronger than those found in a gas but not strong enough to keep the molecules near the equilibrium positions of a solid, resulting in the characteristic definite volume but indefinite shape of a liquid.

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

This is an output device. They run on almost no power since they don't produce their own light, but work by reflecting room or daylight.

Liter

A metric system unit of volume, usually used for liquids.

Logic Diagram

A simplified diagram of an electronic system, using rectangles to represent input and output devices along with the usual logic gate symbols for the AND, OR and NOT gate etc.

Logic Gate

Logic gates allow an electronic system to make decisions based on a number of inputs. For example an OR gate can be used to illuminate a warning light if engine temperature is too high or if it is over-revved.

Logic State

In a digital system, there are two logical states. One state is 'ON', 'HI' or 'logic 1' (all mean the same). The other is 'OFF', 'LOW', 'logic 0' (again all mean the same).

Longitudinal waves

The wave in which the particles of the medium oscillate along the direction of propagation of wave is called the longitudinal wave. Sound waves are longitudinal waves.

Long-sighted

A problem with the accommodation ability of an eye. Basically, the eye can focus on far away objects with no problem, but can't properly focus on nearby objects. There can be two causes of this. The first occurs in older people, where the aging eye lens becomes less flexible and so cannot adopt the highly curved shape needed to focus at short range. This condition is called presbyopia. The second cause is that retina is too near to the lens - so that the focal point falls behind the retina. This is called hypermetropia or hyperopia. Long-sightedness can be treated by wearing spectacles which are convex in shape and therefore help to focus the image properly by reducing the overall focal length of the glasses and eye.

Lorentz transformation

The transformation between frames in relative motion.

Loudness

A subjective interpretation of a sound that is related to the energy of the vibrating source, related to the condition of the transmitting medium, and related to the distance involved.

Lubricant

A lubricant is a substance which reduces friction between two surfaces. Examples are oil, water, air, bananas, seaweed.

Luminosity

The total amount of energy radiated into space each second from the surface of a star.

Luminous

An object or objects that produce visible light; for example, the sun, stars, light bulbs, and burning materials are all luminous.
