Rotational Motion
A time rate at which the object rotates or spins around its axis
What is angular velocity?
I swing from one point to another and I'm found in some clocks.
What is a pendulum?
Formula which states that pressure is equivalent to weight exerted on a surface area
What is P = F/S?
An upward force exerted on objects submerged in fluid
What is buoyant force?
A measuring unit for temperature used most notably in the US
What is Fahrenheit?
Occurs when angular velocity changes
What is angular acceleration?
Motion that predictably plays out over and over
What is an oscillation?
A measuring unit used for measuring atmospheric pressure
What is bar?
The buoyancy force depends on ________
What is the density of the fluid?
Transfer of kinetic energy from one object to another
What is heat?
Measuring unit for angles which is based on arc length and the radius
What is a radian?
Relative position with respect to equilibrium position
What is elongation?
A unit that was named after a French mathematician, physicist and philosopher.
What is pascal?
A body immersed in a fluid is subjected to an upwards force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid
What is Archimedes principle?
Sum of kinetic and potential energies of a system's constituent particles (atoms or molecules)
What is internal energy?
The farther the force is applied from the pivot point, the greater the angular acceleration.
What is torque?
Characteristic of a spring which measures the ratio of the force affecting the spring to the displacement caused by it
What is a spring constant?
Pressure exerted equally in all directions of the confined fluid
What is hydrostatic pressure?
If the object weighs more than an equal volume of water, or it is dense, then the object is _______
What is sinking?
Energy cannot be created or destroyed
What is the 1st law of thermodynamics?
Force that keeps the object on a circular path and is directed towards the center of the rotation
What is centripetal force?
For relatively small deformations of an object, the displacement or size of the deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force or load.
What is Hooke's law?
A device used for measuring pressure
What is a manometer?
The person who ran around naked yelling "Eureka!"
Who is Archimedes?
An English physicist who studied the nature of heat and its relationship with work. A measuring unit for work is named after him.
Who is James Prescott Joule?
