QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Units and measurements provide a standardized system for quantifying and comparing physical quantities.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Motion in a straight line refers to the movement of an object along a path without any deviation or change in direction.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Motion in a plane refers to the movement of an object along a two-dimensional surface or path, allowing for changes in both position and direction.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The laws of motion, formulated by Sir Isaac Newton, describe the fundamental principles governing the behavior of objects in motion and their interactions with forces.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The system of particles and rotational motion deals with the collective behavior and motion of multiple particles or objects, including their rotations, in a unified framework.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Oscillation and waves involve the back-and-forth motion or propagation of a physical quantity, often exhibiting periodic or repetitive behavior.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The dual nature of matter refers to the concept that particles such as electrons and photons exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Semiconductor electronics involves the study and application of electronic devices and circuits that utilize semiconductor materials, such as silicon, to control the flow of electric current.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Electromagnetic waves are a form of energy propagation consisting of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that can travel through empty space, carrying energy and information.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Wave optics is the branch of physics that studies the behavior and properties of light as a wave, including phenomena such as interference, diffraction, and polarization.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Moving charges and magnetism are interconnected phenomena where the motion of charges creates magnetic fields, and magnetic fields exert forces on moving charges.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Magnetism and matter study the relationship between magnetic fields and various materials, including their magnetic properties and the influence of magnetic fields on matter.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Work, energy, and power are fundamental concepts that relate to the application of forces, the transfer of energy, and the rate at which work is done.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Thermal properties of matter encompass the attributes and responses of substances to temperature variations, such as heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and expansion behavior.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Thermodynamics is the study of energy, heat, and work interactions in systems, focusing on understanding and predicting the behavior of matter and energy transformations.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The kinetic theory describes gases as a collection of particles in constant motion, providing a basis for understanding their properties and behavior.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Electric charges and fields involve the examination of electrically charged particles and the forces exerted by electric fields, examining the behavior and interactions of charged objects.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Current electricity explores the movement of electric charge through a conductor, driven by an electric potential difference, and encompasses concepts such as current, resistance, and voltage.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Alternating current (AC) refers to the type of electric current in which the flow of charge periodically changes direction, typically seen in household electricity, where the direction of the current alternates at a certain frequency.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ray optics and instruments involve the study of the behavior of light rays, their interaction with optical elements, and the design and analysis of optical instruments such as lenses, mirrors, and prisms.
