The electromotive force is the work done by a battery on the charge carriers to transport them across the entire circuit, per unit charge. It can be thought of as the specific energy given to the charge c...

Since the SUVAT equations of motion act independently in the horizontal and vertical directions we can use the vertical equations to find the total time (the time when total vertical displacement is zero)...

The Work-Energy principle states that the total work done on or by an object is equal to the total change in energy between the given initial and final states. This can be reworded to also say that the to...

When the balloon is rubbed on your head, it becomes electrostatically charged (this is because electrons are transfered to/from the balloon from/to your hair). When you bring the balloon, which now has an...

Terminal velocity occurs when an object in free fall doesn't accelerate any further. As F=ma, when a = 0, F must be 0. F in this equation refers to resultant force. Because all objects in earth's gravity ...
