1

The joule is a unit of measurement for:

67% Answer Correctly

power

energy

resistance

capacitance


Solution

The joule is a unit of measurement for energy.


2

Resistance is measured in:

86% Answer Correctly

coulombs

amperes

volts

ohms


Solution

Resistance is opposition to the flow of current and is measured in ohms (Ω). One ohm is defined as the amount of resistance that will allow one ampere of current to flow if one volt of voltage is applied. As resistance increases, current decreases as resistance and current are inversely proportional.


3

You would measure the amount of resistance at a certain point in a circuit with a(n):

78% Answer Correctly

potentiometer

ohmmeter

voltmeter

ammeter


Solution

Resistance is opposition to the flow of current and is measured in ohms (Ω). An ohmmeter is used to measure the amount of resistance at a certain point in a circuit.


4

From what energy do photovoltaic cells produce electrical energy?

68% Answer Correctly

nuclear

sun

chemical

magnetic


Solution

A photovoltaic cell (also known as a solar cell) converts energy from the sun into electrical energy.


5

The hertz is a unit of measurement for:

81% Answer Correctly

frequency

power

energy

inductance


Solution

The hertz is a unit of measurement for frequency.
