Basic Physics
This is the famous scientist that pioneered classical physics.
What is Isaac Newton?
______ is a vector, and speed is a scalar.
What is velocity?
These two components act inwards (towards the center) of the circle created by the circular motion of an object.
What is centripetal force and centripetal acceleration?
This type of collision conserves momentum of the system, but does not conserve the kinetic energy of the system.
What is a cross product?
This is the motion of an object that is released inside of a fluid that is denser than the object itself.
This law states that F=ma.
What is Newton's Second Law?
This Newtonian equation follows the Inverse Square Law.
What is Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation?
True or False: In a closed system, a change in potential energy must mean an equal and opposite change in kinetic energy.
True
The negative position integral of this component is potential energy.
What is Force?
This is the force that causes things to drop to the ground on Earth.
What is Gravity?
True or False: an object instantaneously at rest must mean that its acceleration is zero.
False
When spinning a ball attached to a string in a horizontal circle, the tension force of the string provides this type of force.
What is centripetal force?
True or False: Applying a force F on an object for a distance d parallel to the surface that the object is traveling on will result in the same amount of work done, regardless of whether or not the surface is inclined.
True
A certain one-dimensional conservative force is given as a function of x by the expression F = -kx3, where F is in Newtons and x is in meters. Solving for this particular measurement results in the equation -¼kx4.
What is Potential Energy?
This law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton's Third Law?
This is the value given when finding the slope of a velocity-time graph.
What is acceleration?
This is the component that always equals zero when applying a force parallel to a rotating object's radius, no matter how much force is applied
What is torque?
This measurement is provided by the area bounded by the curve and the x-axis of a force-time graph
What is Momentum?
This object's rotational inertia around its central diameter axis of rotation is ¼MR2 + ¹⁄₁₂ML2.
What is a solid cylinder?
This particle has a negative charge.
What is an electron?
Block 1 and block 2, both of identical masses are resting on top of each other, with block 2 on top of block 1. This block has a greater normal force than the other.
The normal force exerted on a person varies at every instant in this type of circular motion.
What is vertical circular motion?
This theorem states that work is defined as the change in kinetic energy.
Work-Energy Theorem
When taking the closed loop line integral of this type of force with respect to separation (distance), the net work done is zero.
What is the Force of Gravity?
