Where is the greatest buoyant force?
|
2 and 3 because they are fully submerged.
|
|
What is the buoyant force on the ball that is half submerged?
|
Half of the buoyant force of 2 and 3.
|
|
What determines buoyant force?
|
Volume of the liquid you are displacing and the weight of the water. The weight of what you are displacing is the buoyant force.
|
|
Why are balls 2 and 3 sinking?
|
Because they are heavier than water and more dense.
|
|
Which ball is lighter and not as dense than water?
|
1
|
|
Which ball is the most dense?
|
3 is the most dense because it has the most atoms in it and it is the heaviest.
|
|
When a continue force is applied to a rocket over time...
|
It will always be accelerating... different than hitting a baseball, when you hit a baseball you just hit it once with one force, if you continue to hit it, it would accelerate.
|
|
If a rocket goes 100 mph after the boosters are on. Will the speed keep increasing?
|
Yes... after one second it will go 100 mpg, after 2 second 200 mpg and so on and it will keep increasing speed if there is a continuous force.
|
|
Newton's Law
|
- an object in motion stays in motion until acted on by another force.
- mass x acceleration= force - forces come in pairs |
|
A truck going 100 mph hits a mosquito who is standing still going at 0 mph
|
- The force on the mosquito is the same as the force experienced by the truck
- The mosquito has a greater acceleration - The larger your mass (KE) when you hit something then you will accelerate - So if you are bigger than something, the smaller thing will accelerate more but the contact force will be the same. - Whoever has more mass will accelerate more. - When a ball hits a bat the ball has greater acceleration but they both hit each other with the same force. |
|
I drop a marble and a cannonball on the moon.
|
- acceleration and speed are the same
- they both hit the ground at the same time - the more massive the object the greater the force acting on it - cannon ball will take more force to pull it down - gravitational force on the cannon ball is bigger - Acceleration is constant no matter how big and heavier you are - The marble requires smaller force |
|
What happens when you double the distance between 2 objects?
|
You cut the force of gravity down to 1/4
|
|
Elevator going up
|
- Contact force between you and elevator will always be the same
- At step one 200 pounds, no net force - At steo 2 you are going up and you are 210 pounds; net force upward - At step 3 there is no net force and no acceleration so you weight 200 - At step 4 you are slowing down and you are going to weight 190 pounds; net force is downward - At step 5 you are still and not moving so you will be 200 pounds, no net force - At each of these steps your "weight" is the force between you and the floor - net force opposite your direction of acceleration is deceleration and you will slow down or go backwards - Anytime you have acceleration there is net force - The contact force between the man and the floor will be largest at step 2 - Contact force between the floor and the man will be the same - net force on the man will be the same at 2 - the net force on man will be 0 on 1,3,5 - A net force is only present when there is accelaration - the man will have the largest kinetic energy at 3 because it is moving faster then: * kinetic energy is anytime an object has motion; faster something is moving, the more KE it has. * A pendulum has the greatest KE at the bottom - Electrical potential energy is being converted to create kinetic energy |
|
What kind of energy is being converted when I throw something?
|
Chemical potential energy (food) to kinetic energy (movement) to thermal energy (object cutting the air.)
|
|
A pendulum is swinging back and forward
|
- Gravitational potential energy is maximized at the end ( points 1 and 2)
- The more you lift up the greater the Gravitational Potential Energy - As it drops down towards the middle the Gravitational Potential Energy is turning into kinetic energy - At point 2 the GPE has completely converted into Kinetic energy and kinetic energy is maximized. - In a perfect frictionless world, the pendulum will go forever and the total energy of the pendulum is conserved ( just shifting between gravitational potential and kinetic energy.) - As the pendulum swings, energy is transferred back and forth between gravity and kinetic energy. |
|
A bullet is shot straight up out of a box car moving at 10 mph
|
Conservation of linear momentum: anytime an object moving is spelled, any force that is causing it to move laterally then it will keep going the same speed.
- The bullet will move with you at 10 mph; like if you are in a bus that is going 30 mph and you jump, you will land in the same spot because you are going at 30 mph with the bus. |
|
If you shoot a gun exactly parallel to the earth and drop a bullet at the same time?
|
They will hit the earth at the same time. ( Conservation of Linear Momentum)
|
|
Relationship between time and relative speed
|
- At motion in high speed, time slows down ( time dilatation)
- Mass increases - Length contracts (shortens) - THESE THREE THINGS ARE WITNESSED BY OUTSIDE OBERVERS |
|
A baby is in a rocketship going near the speed of light
|
- Energy convert into mass
- any forward momentum that would make you go faster than the speed of light converts into mass - if the headlights on the space ship go on, the headlights will go as fast as the speed of light... THE SPEED OF LIGHT IS CONSTANT... light will never go faster or slower than the speed of light. - If a distant start is moving 1/4 the speed of light away form earth, the lights will travel at the same speed. - If you were in a rocket for a long time, your age would be lees than someone on earth, but if you were to fly back, it would balance out. |
|
