A is for Acceleration

Acceleration is a change in velocity

Ex. Sentence

The man accelerated as the light changed from red to 

green.

B is for Battery

A battery is a container consisting one ore more cells 

in which chemical energy is transformed into 

electricity and is use as a power source.

Ex. Sentence

I need to put new batteries in the remote so that it will 

work.

C is for Charge (Electrical)

An electrical charge is the physical property of matter that 

causes it to experience a force when placed in an 

electromagnetic field. There are two types of electric 

charges: positive and negative.

Ex. Sentence

You get a positive electrical charge when you put two 

opposite poles together on a magnet.

D is for Distance

Distance is how far something has moved in a given amount 

of time

Ex. Sentence 

Michael walked a great distance from his house to Walmart 

in only ten minutes.

E is for Electric Circuit

An electric circuit is a path in which electrons from a 

voltage or current source flow.

Ex.Sentence

Electric current flows in a closed path called an electric 

circuit.

F is for force 

A force is a push or pull or any strength that has the 

ability to move an object.

Ex.Sentence

When you kick a ball you are putting a force upon it.

G is for Gravitational Potential Energy

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object 

possesses because of its position in a gravitational field.

Ex.Sentence

If a roller coaster is at it's highest point it has lots of 

gravitational potential energy.

H is for Horsepower

Horsepower is a unit of power equal to 550 foot-pounds 

per second (745.7 watts).

Ex.Sentence

A Nissan car has more horsepower than a Honda car

I is for Inertia

Inertia is a tendency to do nothing or to remain 

unchanged.

Ex.Sentence

A building has inertia because it does not move unless a 

force acts on it.

J is for Joule

A joule is the SI unit of work or energy.

Ex.Sentence

The volt is equal to 1 joule per coulomb

K is for Kinetic Energy

Kinetic energy is the energy of movement.

Ex.Sentence

If a baseball is flying across the sky it has lots of kinetic 

energy.

L is for the Law of Conservation of Energy

Law of Conservation of Energy states that the total 

energy of an isolated system remains constant—it is 

said to be conserved over time.

Ex.Sentence

The first law of thermodynamics is a statement of the 

law of conservation of energy for a thermodynamic 

system.

M is for Momentum

Momentum is the quantity of motion of a moving body, 

measured as a product of its mass and velocity.

Ex.Sentence

This rotation can be described as angular momentum, a 

conserved measure of its motion that cannot change.

N is for Newton(force)

Newton is the SI unit of force.

Ex.Sentence

We use Newtons to measure force.

O is for Ohm

Ohm is the SI unit of electrical resistance, expressing the 

resistance in a circuit transmitting a current of one ampere 

when subjected to a potential difference of one volt.

Ex.Sentence

The dipole has a built-in transformer to match the 72 ohm 

balanced terminal impedance to 50 ohm unbalanced   feeder 

cable.

P if for Potential Energy

Potential Energy is stored energy an object has due to 

position.

Ex.Sentence

A ball that is on a high shelf has a lot of potential 

energy.

R is for Resistance Force

Resistance Force is the force which an effort force must 

overcome in order to do work on an object via a simple 

machine.

Ex.Sentence

Resistance force is measured in newtons or in pounds-

force.

S is for Speed

Speed is the rate at which something is able to move.

Ex.Sentence

In order to when the race John must pick up speed.
