 * remember when solving for specific heat, remember to change your __mass__ (m) to **kg**
 * JJ Thompson was the one who discovered the electron
 * Benjamin Franklin was the one who discovered positive and negative charges
 * power- the rate at which energy is used
 * when changing a liquid to a solid the heat of fusion is released
 * the //greater// the difference in temperature between the heat source and the cold output for a heat engine, the //greater// the efficiency
 * **Heat Engine**- used to convert thermal energy into mechanical energy
 * the higher the mass in an objects, the higher the specific heat
 * the __electrostatic force__ felt between two charged objects //increases// if the **distance** //decreases//
 * if there is an excess of electrons, the charge is negative
 * if there is a shortage of electrons the charge is positive
 * In a **SERIES**, the //fewer// the __bulbs__, the //lower// the __resistance__, and the //higher// the __current__
 * in a **PARALLEL** circuit, the //more// __bulbs__ that are added, the //lower// the total __resistance__ is, and the //higher// the __current__
