Sig-Fig-Newton
The force used to accelerate a 5 kg mass at 5 m/s/s.
What is 30 N?
5 x 5 = 25 -> Sig Figs -> 30N
You must push a big kid harder than you do a small kid to get them to swing at the same tempo on the swings.
What is Newton's 2nd Law?
This measurement uses the units: kilograms
What is mass?
This is the resistive force between surfaces.
What is friction?
The direction of acceleration when a rightward moving car is slowing down.
What is left?
The mass that gets accelerated at 2.0 m/s/s from a 12N force.
What is 6.0 kg?
12/2.0 = 6.0
Your tires push the road backwards. The road pushes the car forwards.
What is Newton's 3rd Law?
This measurement uses the units: Newtons
What is force?
This force is dependent upon surface area and shape. We are often times told to neglect it.
What is air resistance?
The direction of acceleration when a leftward moving car is speeding up.
What is left?
The acceleration given to a 3.0 kg object when pushed with a 15 N force.
What is 5.0 m/s/s?
15 / 3.0 = 5.0
Objects will maintain their current state of motion unless acted upon by an outside unbalanced force.
What is Newton's 1st Law?
This measurement uses the units: m/s/s or m/s2
What is acceleration?
This is the type of force that is felt by a wire with a mass hanging from it.
What is the force of Tension?
An object will not accelerate if the net force is this.
What is zero? or What is forces are balanced?
The number of sig figs in 201,000
What is 3?
AKA the Law of Inertia
What is Newton's 1st Law?
This variable is represented by the letter little "g"
What is Gravity?
This is the type of force that pushes up on a boat and keeps it floating.
What is the force of buoyancy?
The direction of a net force is the direction of this.
The number of sig figs in 0.0050
What is 2?
This law explains why rockets work even in outer space.
What is Newton's 3rd Law?
What is force?
This is the force that always works perpendicular to the surface.
What is the Normal Force?
This is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth to 3 Sig Figs.
What is 9.81 m/s/s or m/s2?
