Midterm Exam dates: Tuesday January 20th through Friday January 23rd, 2004.
IV. Recall terms, definitions and formulas from texts, lectures, demonstrations, marker board presentations, Internet research, work sheets, handouts, lab exercises, projects, overhead transparencies, videos, quizzes, tests, and so on (see the following list:)
a. “Elektron” (with a “k”) = Greeks in 600 BC found amber from conifer trees repels “negative” objects
b. Greeks in 600 BC also discovered that glass repels “positive” objects
c. Two amber stones rubbed with fur repel each other because they are both “negatively charged”
d. Two glass balls rubber with wool repel each other because they are both “positively charged”
e. One charged glass and one charged amber ball attract each other because they have “opposite charges”
f. Coulomb’s Law = Like Charges Repel, Unlike Charges Attract
g. Ben Franklin proposed the “Fluid Theory of Electricity” (Electricity flows from positive to less-positive”
h. Democritus in 500 BC proposed the “Atomic Theory” (matter can’t be divided beyond the size of atoms)
i. J. J. Thompson in 1879 discovered the “Electron” (negative because they are repelled by amber)
j. The Electron (spelled with a “c”) is the smallest known negatively charged particle (can’t be divided)
k. Ernest Rutherford in 1910 discovered the “Proton” (positive because they are repelled by glass)
l. A Proton is 1840 times heavier than an Electron
m. James Chadwick discovered the “Neutron” in 1932 (completing the “Nuclear Theory”)
n. A Neutron has a neutral charge and about the same atomic mass as the proton
o. Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus (center) of an atom and Electrons orbit the nucleus
p. Murray Gell-Mann and a team of scientists discovered “quarks” in 1977 (make up Protons & Neutrons)
q. All elements such as gold or silver depend upon the numbers of protons, neutrons, & electrons
r. Atomic diagrams show 3-dimensional atoms in 2-dimensional form as a “bulls-eye” pattern
s. The 2-dimensional “bulls-eye” pattern depicts a nucleus at the center and electrons orbiting
t. The Law of Charges and the Law of Gravity balance electron orbit Centrifugal Force and Orbital Speed
