Electrical and Mechanical Concepts Quiz

Ampere is the SI unit of electric current.

Watt is the SI unit of power.

AC stands for Alternating Current, where the direction of current periodically reverses.

Ohm's Law states that voltage (V) equals current (I) multiplied by resistance (R).

A flywheel in a mechanical system stores rotational energy and smoothens out fluctuations in energy.

A capacitor stores electrical energy and releases it when needed.

Kirchhoff's Current Law states that the algebraic sum of currents entering and leaving a junction in a circuit is zero.

A diode permits current flow in only one direction and blocks it in the opposite direction.

Silicon is widely used as a semiconductor material in electronic devices due to its abundance and semiconductor properties.

An induction motor uses electromagnetic induction to produce rotational motion.

Torque is the rotational equivalent of force, representing the force applied at a distance causing an object to rotate.

A transformer changes the voltage level of alternating current electricity.

A gearbox in a mechanical system alters the speed and torque of rotational motion.

A solenoid produces a magnetic field when an electric current passes through it.

Angular momentum remains constant in a system unless an external torque is applied.
