?
Kilowatt (kW)
1000 watts.
1 of 12
Kilowatt-hour (kWh)
Electrical energy supplied to a 1 kW electrical device in 1 hour.
2 of 12
Kinetic energy
Energy of a moving object due to its motion; kinetic energy (in J) = ½ x mass (in kg) x speed squared (in metre squared per second squared).
3 of 12
Light-dependent resistor
Device with a resistance that varies with the amount of light falling on it.
4 of 12
Limit of proportionality
The limit for Hooke's law applied to the extension of a stretched spring.
5 of 12
Line of action
The line along which a force acts.
6 of 12
Line of force
Line in a magnetic field along which a magnetic compass points, also called a magnetic field line.
7 of 12
Liquid
A state of matter.
8 of 12
Live wire
The wire of a mains circuit that has a potential that alternates from positive to negative and back each cycle.
9 of 12
Load
The weight of an object raised by a device used to lift the object or the force applied by a device when it is used to shift an object.
10 of 12
Longitudinal wave
Wave in which the vibrations are parallel to the direction of energy transfer.
11 of 12
Long sight
An eye that cannot focus on nearby objects.
