Quiz
total potential energy provided by a power source

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

résistance, résistor
the complete circle through which an electric current flows, typically consists of the source of electric energy

circuit
a solid substance that conducts electricity or heat better than insulators, but not as well as most metals

semi-conducteur
a phenomenon where certain materials conduct electricity without resistance when cooled to extremely low temperatures

supraconductivité, superconductivité
to apply an electric charge to a conductor

électrifier, charger électriquement
a conductor through which electricity travels to or from an object, such as batteries

électrode
a positively charged electrode in an electrical device where oxidation occurs, resulting in the release of electrons

anode
a negatively charged electrode within an electrical device, from which electrons flow out into the external circuit

cathode
a form of electricity generated by friction between two materials, resulting in an imbalance of electric charges on their surfaces

électricité statique, électrostatique
(of a battery or device) capable of being supplied with electrical power again

rechargeable, à recharge
a machine that produces electricity by converting mechanical energy into electrical energy

générateur
a device that converts the energy of the sun into electricity

panneau solaire
the amount of solar energy received per unit area on Earth's surface

irradiance solaire, rayonnement solaire
the energy transmitted in the form of particles or waves through the space or a matter

radiation
related to the technology that turns sunlight directly into electricity

photovoltaïque, relatif à la conversion de la lumière en électricité
referring to the combined interaction of electric and magnetic fields, often associated with waves or radiation

électromagnétique
an invisible area around a magnetic object where magnetic forces can attract or repel other objects

champ magnétique, champ d'aimantation
a long rigid bar that is put under a heavy object in order to move it

levier
the rapid back-and-forth movement of an object

vibration, oscillation
a point or support on which a lever pivots or rotates in order to lift or move objects

pivot, point d'appui
a rotational force measured in newton-meters or foot-pounds

couple, moment de force
a measure of a spring's stiffness, indicating how much force is needed to stretch or compress it

constante de ressort, raideur du ressort
a mass used to provide balance to another mass

contrepoids, masse d'équilibrage
having a speed greater than that of sound

supersonique, ultrasonique
the study of the design, development, and operation of aircrafts, focusing on principles of aerodynamics, propulsion, and material science

aéronautique, aviation
(physics) the increase in velocity over time

accélération, augmentation de la vitesse
the constant speed reached by a falling object when the drag force equals the gravitational force pulling it downward, resulting in no further acceleration

vitesse terminale, vitesse limite
relating to the transmission or control of fluids under pressure within confined systems or machinery

hydraulique
(physics) the universal force of attraction between any pair of objects with mass
