Basics of Graphing and Inertia | Linear Motion | Newton's 2nd Law | Newton's 3rd Law and Vectors | Momentum |
---|---|---|---|---|
What is Slope
rise/run
|
What is Speed or Velocity
Distance/Time
|
What is Newtons Second Law Equation
F=ma
|
What is NET Force
The vector sum of two or more forces acting on an object
|
What is Momentum
P or "Inertia in Motion"
|
What is Inverse Relation
y=k/x
|
What is Acceleration
Change in Velocity
|
What is Mass
The amount of matter in an object
|
What is Gravity
An attractive force due to the masses of objects
|
What is impulse
Something that makes velocity change
|
What is Inertia
An object at rest stays at rest; an object in motion stays in motion.
|
What are Vector Quantities
Velocity, Acceleration, Force
|
What is Weight
The effect of gravity on a mass
|
What is weightlessness
When an object's apparent weight is zero
|
What is Impulse-Momentum Theorem
m X v = f X t
|
What is Mechanical Equilibrium
When the net force on something is zero
|
What is constant velocity
If a car is moving in a straight line, and a constant speed it is moving at a ________________
|
What is Friction
The force that opposes (or slows) motion
|
What is Terminal Velocity
The constant velocity that a falling object reaches when the drag force equals the force of gravity
|
What is Time
Most altered quantity in the Impulse-Momentum Theorem
|
What is a Free Body Diagram
They show all the forces acting on an object
|
What is Displacement
Amount of space traveled in a direction
|
What is the coefficient of friction
Mu
|
What is Kinetic Friction Force
The horizontal force exerted on one surface by another when surfaces are in relative motion
|
What is Conservation of Momentum
The total momentum before a collision is equal to the total momentum after a collision
