What is the equation for density?

- write it in symbol & word

density = mass / volume

p=m/v

100

What is the equation for speed? 

- write in symbol and word

speed = distance / time 

v=d/t

100

What is the equation of gravitational field strength? 

- write in word & symbol

gravitational field strength = weight / mass 

g = W/m

100

if m=Fxd 

How would you find a distance? 

d = m/F 

distance is moment divided by force

200

What are two instruments needed to measure density? 

balance (electric balance) 

measuring cylinder (filled with water)

200

What are two instruments needed to calculate speed?

timer (stop watch) 

ruler (measuring tape)

200

What is g on Earth? 

a) what the true gravity units are 

b) what you will use by Cambridge

a) g = 9.81 N/Kg

b) g = 10 N/Kg

200

What is the centre of gravity and how would you make the center of gravity lower on a bus? 


The centre of gravity is an imaginary line where all the mass of an object could be located there. 

To make the centre of gravity lower, have more people sit on the lower portion of the bus or make it closer to the ground.

How would you find the volume of an 'irregular' object? 

Place the object in a measuring cylinder that is filled with water. Record the difference of water level and that will be its volume. 

300

What are two different common units of speed? 

m/s and km/h

If g on Planet A is 12.1 N/Kg and the mass of a watermelon is 981 g, what is it's weight?

g = W/m 

W = g x m 

12.1 N/Kg x 0.981 Kg = 11.87 N

The man uses a shadoof to collect water. If the water has a weight of 1200N and the distance of the arm from the pivot is 2.2 m. What is the moment? 

m =Fxd 

F=1200N ; d = 2.2m 

m = 1200N x 2.2m 

m=2640Nm

A metal object is weighed and has a mass of 62 grams. Its volume is 29 cm3. Calculate its density 

Would the object float or sink?

p=m/v 

p=62g/29cm3

p=2.14 g/cm3

This metal object would sink.

A runner runs a 200m race. 

He clocks at 25.12 seconds. 

What is his average speed?

v=d/t 

v= 200m/25.12s 

v=7.96 m/s

A driver pushes the petal and moves ahead. Its forward push is 1,200 N and is pushed back from air resistance of 225 N. 

Draw a force diagram and calculate its resultant force

225 N <-- Car --> 1200N 

RF = 1200 N - 225 N  

RF = 975 N

This boy is sitting on a seesaw with his friend, and it is balanced. His weight is 260 N, and he is 1.2 m away from the pivot. His friend is also 1.5 metres away. What is his weight? 

m1 = m2 ; m=Fxd

m1=260N x 1.2m 

m1= 312 Nm 

m2=312Nm so... 

312Nm = F x 1.5m ; F = 321Nm/1.5m 

F=208N

500

This object is known to have the density of 0.72 g/cm3. It weighs as 12.6g. Calculate its volume. 

p=m/v 

v=m/p 

v=12.6g/0.72g/cm3

v= 17.5 cm3

500

Create a speed-time graph of: 

0s = 0m/s 

30s = 7 m/s 

40 s = 7 m/s 

50 s = 7 m/s 

60s = 0ms 

Calculate its total distance travelled. 

create an accurate graph 

area of triangle + area of rectangle = distance travelled. 

Distance travelled = 280m

A ball on Earth has W = 112N. On Planet A, its W = 82N. 

Find out what the gravity on Planet A is? 

Earth: 

W = 112 N; g = 9.81 N/Kg 

g = W/m ; m = W/g

m = 112N / 9.81 N/Kg 

m =11.4 Kg 

Planet A: 

W = 82N & m = 11.4 Kg 

g = W/M --> 82N/11.4Kg 

g = 7.19 N/Kg

This seesaw is in equalibrium. 

An older sister is sitting on the left side, and on the right are her two little brothers. 

She is 0.5m away from the pivot and boy1 is 0.5m and boy2 is 1.0m. 

Boy1 weighs 20N and Boy2 weighs 15N. 

What is the weight of the older sister? 

m1 = m2 ; m=Fxd 

m2 = (0.5mx20N) + (1.0mx15N) 

m2 = 10Nm + 15 Nm ; m2=25 Nm 

m1=m2 so m1 =25Nm 

25Nm = F x 0.5m 

F=25Nm/0.5 ; F=50N
