What are the six most common methods of producing electromotive force?

Magnetism, Friction, Pressure, Heat Light, Chemical Action.

M,F,P,H,L,EF

What three fundamental conditions must exist before a voltage can be produced by magnetism?

Conductor, magnetic field, relative motion between the field and the conductor.

How is voltage created with magnetism?

By a conductor, or cunductors moving across magnetic field so as to cut the lines of forceelectrons within the conductor are impelled in one direction or another.

What is the main application of voltage produced by friction?

Van De Graf Generators

What type of materials are used to produce photoelectric voltage?

silver oxide or copper oxide.

Electricity is a combination of a force called voltage and the movement of invisible particles known as?

Current.

I

In the equation I=E/R, what does each mean?

I = Intensity of Current (AMPS)


E = Difference in Potential (VOLTS)


R = Resistance (OHMS)

In a DC circuit, power is equal to the product of whaT?

The amount of opposition to current flow in an AC inductive circuit is referred to as?

Inductive reactance.

In accordance with OHM's law for AC circuits, the effective current through a circuit is?

Directly proportional to the efffectice voltage and inversely proportional to the impedance.

Whatis the equation used to express OHM's law when dealing with AC circuits?

I=E/Z


I = Current
