Académico IELTS (Banda 6-7) - Physics

an electrical component designed to limit or control the flow of electric current in a circuit, typically by providing resistance

resistor

an electric device that is used to accumulate electric charge

capacitor

the branch of physical science that deals with the relationships between heat, work, and energy, particularly the principles governing the conversion of various forms of energy

termodinámica

(physics) an invisible substance that makes up most of the universe's mass, detectable only through its gravitational effects

materia oscura

a fundamental particle of light that carries electromagnetic energy and exhibits both particle-like and wave-like properties

fóton

the specific number of waves that pass a point every second

frecuencia

the distance between a point on a wave of energy and a similar point on the next wave

longitud de onda

the action or process where a wave, such as light or sound, bounces back from a surface instead of passing through

reflexión

the strength of a moving object determined by multiplying how heavy it is by how fast it is going

momento

the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, whether at rest or in uniform motion, and to remain in its current state unless acted upon by an external force

inercia

(physics) the back-and-forth motion of an object between two end points

oscilación

a small semiconductor device, used in television and radio sets, able to amplify or rectify an electric current

transistor

an electronic device with two terminals, typically allowing the flow of current in one direction only

diodo

an electronic component that stores energy in a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it; typically consists of a coil of wire

inductor

the study of the behavior of air as it interacts with solid objects, particularly the flow of air around and through objects, and the effects of this interaction on the objects
