Acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity
Define acceleration
What is Gravity?
a push or pull upon an object resulting from the objects interaction with another object
What is a force?
A quantity that has both magnitude and direction.
What is a vector?
States that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.
What is Newton’s first law?
a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force
What causes acceleration
it comes from all the mass.
Where does gravity come from?
The force that opposes the motion of an object
What is Friction?
The starting point of the vector and the head or tip of a vector is the final, pointed end of the arrow.
What does the tail of a vector represent?
Is a quantitative description of the changes that a force can produce on the motion of a body.
What it Newton’s second law?
Formula of acceleration
F=G m1m2/r2
What is the equation for gravity?
A force that attracts any two objects with mass.We call it this because it always tries to pull masses together ,it never pushes them apart
What is Gravitational Force?
Displacement, velocity, acceleration, and force
What are some examples of vector quantities?
Wind, a ball being thrown, someone running, a fish swimming.
What are some examples of motion energy?
True: Accelerations are vector quantities
True or false: are accelerations vector quantities?
True: Gravity is a law and not a theory.
True or false: Gravity is a law not a theory.
Is the force that is transmitted through a string, rope, cable or wire when it is pulled tight by forces acting from opposites ends.
What is Tension Force
To add vector v to vector u Move vector v until it’s tail touches the head of u. The sum is the vector from the tail of u to the head of v
What is the head to tail rule?
The force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.
What is the formula of Newton’s 2nd law?
Increasing speed, decreasing speed/ retardation, and changing direction
Types of acceleration
Gravitational, Electromagnetic, Weak nuclear, Strong nuclear.
What are the four types of gravitational forces?
The force of gravity on earth is always equal to the weight of the object as found by the equation:
Depict a vector by use of an arrow drawn to scale in a specific direction
How are vector diagrams used?
Rotary, Oscillating, linear, and reciprocating
4 types of motion
