Newton’s Laws: If mass is constant, as force increases, ________ also increases

Acceleration

100

If we have a position - time graph. What does the slope represent?

Velocity

100

F = ___ * a

m (mass)

100

True or False: You walk one lap around a 0.25 mi track. Both your distance and displacement are 0.25 mi.

False. Displacement will be 0.

100

F = m*a

M = ?

  • M = F / A

200

Kinetic Energy: If mass is constant, as velocity increases, kinetic energy changes _________ (directly/inversely/exponentially)

Exponentially

200

If we have a velocity - time graph. What does the slope represent?

Acceleration

200

X = ___ t + (1/2)at2

v(initial velocity)

200

True or False: Acceleration and velocity are always in the same direction.

False. An acceleration in the opposite direction of velocity indicates slowing down.

200

Fnet, y = -Fg + Fn + Fapp, y

Fn = ?

Fn = Fnet, y + Fg - Fapp, y

300

Momentum: If mass is constant, as momentum increases, ________ also increases

Velocity

300

If we have a force - time graph. What does the area represent?

Impulse

300

FG = ___ * (m1m2 / r2)

What number is this variable equal to?

G (gravitational constant)

G = 6.67 x 10-11

300

True or False: A positive acceleration does not tell you if the car is speeding up or slowing down.

True. A positive acceleration indicates a net force in the positive direction, but not necessarily if it is speeding up or slowing down. If the car is moving in the negative direction, it is slowing down. If the car is moving in the positive direction, it is speeding up.

300

Pabs = P0 + ⍴gh

h = ?

h = (Pabs - P0)/⍴g

400

Rotation: If angular momentum is constant, as moment of inertia increases, angular velocity ____________

Increases
400

If we have a velocity - time graph. What does the y-intercept represent?

Initial Velocity

400

_____ = F * t

J

400

True or False: I push on a wall for 30 minutes and eventually stop because I am exhausted. I did work on the wall.

  • False - I applied a force but the force did not cause the wall to move a distance so no work was done on the wall.

400

v= v0 + at

t = ?

t = (vf - v0) / a

500

Fluids: If the speed of the fluid increases, ________ decreases.

Pressure

500

If we have an acceleration-time graph. What does a straight, horizontal line across the graph represent?

Constant acceleration

500

T (torque) = ____ * a (angular acceleration)

I (moment of inertia)

500

True or False: Maximum torque occurs when the force is parallel to the line connecting the axis of rotation to the point the force is applied.

False: if the force is parallel to the line drawn between axis of rotation and the force applied, the torque is zero. Max torque occurs when the force is perpendicular to r.

½*m*v2 = m*g*h

v = ?

v = sqrt(2gh)
