Resource summary

Question Answer
SI units for mass Kg
units for weight N
SI units for length meters
SI units for time Seconds
SI units for acceleration m/s^2
SI units for force Newtons
SI units for momentum N*S or KG*M/S
SI units for work and energy J or N*M
SI units for power Watts
object traveling at constant velocity means... constant speed and direction
an object accelerating means... change in direction, increasing speed, slowing down
equation for distance traveled at constant velocity d=vt
equation for linear acceleration a=(Vf-Vi)/t
equation for displacement of accelerating object 1/2 a t^2 + Vi t
where was Isaac newton born (and died) England
life span of sir Isaac newton 1642-1727
Who was Sir Isaac Newton Physicist AND mathematician
What did Sir Isaac newton discover discovered fundamental laws about mechanics, motion, light and gravity
what did sir Isaac newton invent calculus
1st law nicknames seatbelt law and law of inertia
whats inertia tendency to resist a change in motion
mass is... inertia
weight is... force due to gravity
2nd law nickname baseball law
2nd law equation Fnet=ma
if the force increases the acceleration... increases (directly proportional)
the mass increases the acceleration... Decreases (inversely proportional)
by applying constant force on a object, the object will experience... constant acceleration
object experiencing balanced forces will be.... at rest or moving at constant velocity
object experiencing unbalanced forces will be.... accelerating
terminal velocity of an object means... air resistance and weight are balanced, and it is at constant velocity
3rd law nickname rocket law
what is the 3rd law every action has an equal and opposite reaction
whats friction the force that opposes the motion of an object
if a system is in equilibrium it means... it has balanced forces FN=0 A=0
scalars have only a.... magnitude
vectors have... magnitude and direction
what method do you use in order to add concurrent force vectors parallelogram
when you break a vector down into its component parts that process is called vector resolution
tossing a boll to a friend, the ball is a projectile
name given to the path of prjectile trajectory
what kinds of motion does a ball have when you toss it vertical and horizontal
the vertical component of a tossed ball is affected by gravity
p= mv
change in P= m* change in velocity
m* change in velocity= m* (Vf-Vi)
M* (Vf-Vi)= J
J= f*t
f*t= m*(Vf-Vi)
what is the conservation of momentum in any collision or explosion the total amount of momentum before equals the total amount of momentum after
GPE= MGH
KE= 1/2*m*v^2
f*d= m*g*d
power= work/time
