how is velocity as a vector represented
|
arrow shows the direction of the motion
the arrow represents speed the length of the arrow is drown to a suitable scale |
|
define resultant
|
diagonal of a rectangle described by 2 vectors
|
|
how can you find the components of a vector
|
drow the vector with correct magnitude and orientation
measure the sides of the rectangle draw a rectangle so the vector is diagonal |
|
distinguish between vectors and scalars
|
v-force velocity acceleration and weight
s-mass times temperature speed |
|
describe the difference between vectors and scalars
|
a vector quantity includes both magnitude and direction, but a scalar quantity includes only magnitude
|
|
understand and identify action/reaction pairs player hit a ball with a bat
|
action player hits the ball the reaction is when the ball hits the bat and gives force back and that proples the ball forward
|
|
under what circumstances is momentum conserved
|
for all collisions as long as external forces do not act against it
even when objects do not move along the same straight line |
|
what factors affect an object momentum
|
the force that acts and the length of time it acts on it
|
|
define power and give it's mathematic equation
|
is the rate at which work is done. power = work done/time interval
|
|
under what circumstances is momentum conserved
|
for all collisions as long as external forces do not act against it
even when objects do not move along the same straight line |
|
define kinetic energy
|
energy of motion
|
|
define energy
|
the propert of an object that enables it to work
|
|
in terms of gravitational potential energy what is hight
|
distance above a chosen reference point
|
|
suppose that you apply a 70-N horizontal force to a 32-kg package, which pushes it 5 meters across a mailroom floor how much work do you do on the package
|
you have to multiply the force by the distance
350J |
|
what are the three examples of potential energy
|
elastic, chemical, gravitational
|
|
explain when work is done on an object
|
when a force acts on the object and the object moves in the direction of the force
|
|
under what circumstances is momentum conserved
|
for all collisions as long as external forces do not act against it
even when objects do not move along the same straight line |
|
what are the 2 ways to calculate gravitation potential energy
|
weight times hight
mass times acceleration times hight |
|
what are the 2 categories that work falls into
|
work is done against another force work change to the speed of a object
