Motion
|
occurs when an object changes its position relative to its surroundings.
|
|
distance
|
an object travels is the space between two points.
|
|
frame of reference
|
motion is observed and meassured any set of point,lines,or planes from which coordinates can be measured
|
|
speed
|
of an object is the distance the object travels in a given time
|
|
average speed
|
s=d/t
s=100m/20s s=5m/s |
|
instantaneous speed
|
the speed of an object at a particular instant
|
|
velocity
|
is speed in a particular direction
|
|
acceleration
|
the rate at which the velocity of an object changes
a=cv/t=Fv-iv/t a=15m/s-0m/s/8s a=1.9m/s2 |
|
inertia
|
is the tendency of an object to resist any change in motion
|
|
net force
|
is the sum of the force acting on an object
net force=mass x acceleration f=m x a f=1n |
|
acceleration due to gravity
|
in the absence of air resistance, however, all freely falling objects have the same acceleration
|
|
FREE FALL
|
WHEN gravity is the only force acting on a falling object
|
|
weightless
|
freely falling object
|
|
momentum
|
is = to an object's mass multipled by its velocity
p=m x v p=___kg x m/s |
|
projectile motion
|
is the motion of an object thats move under the influence of gravity alone
|
|
trajectory
|
the curved path a projectile follows
|
|
uniform circular motion
|
refers to motion with constant speead around a circle
|
|
centripetal force
|
force that causes an object to move in a circle
|
|
work
|
IS DONE WHEN WHEN A FORCE MOVES AN OBJECT OVER A DISTANCE
W+ F X D |
|
joule
|
one j equals a force of 1n moving an object a distance of i m. a joule is = to n x m
w=f x d w=___j |
|
energy
|
the ability to do work
|
|
potential energy
|
stored energy
|
|
gravitational potential energy
|
potentia energy due to an object's positions relative to the ground
|
|
kinetic energy
|
is the energy of motion
kinetic energyy = 1/2 mass x speed2 ke=1/2mv2 |
|
laws of conservation of energy
|
that energy can be changed from one form to another, the total amount stay the same
|
|
power
|
is the rate at which work is done
power = work/time p=w/t p=___w |
|
watts
|
a watt is equal to a joule per second (j/s)
|
|
machine
|
any tool that help to do work
|
|
simple machine
|
is one that does work in one movement
|
|
lever
|
is a rod or bar that pivits around a point
|
