In finding the Loss or gain of heat we can indicate if it is a LOSS if the product we got is negative.
In finding the Loss or gain of heat we can indicate if it is a GAIN if the product we got is positive
what is the sum of kinetic and potential energy possessed by the particles of a substance?
internal energy
When we put the switch ON, free electrons in the metal conductors, start flowing through the circuit. these free electrons are the electric charges. the flow of charges in the electric circuit forms an electriccurrent.
what is the amount of charges flowing through a particular cross section of the conductor per unit time? or the rate of flow of charges?
Electric current.
electric current is measured by a device called?
Ammeter
electrons flow from the negative to positive terminal of an electric cell in a circuit
conventional electric current is said to flow from positive to negative terminals in a circuit.
