Laws of Motion
What is force?
Categorized into three areas, levers are identified by the relative positioning of these components.
What are the load, axis and force?
Straight line or translational are both synonyms of this type of motion.
What is linear?
This principle states the production of maximum force requires the use of all possible joints.
This Greek genius first described levers and their advantages.
Who is Archimedes?
This term refers to a couch potatoes' ability to remain motionless.
What is inertia?
In May 2023, Canada won the World Hockey Championship. A hockey player using their stick to shoot the puck, is an example of this class lever.
What is a first class lever?
Angular motion requires that a force act through this area of a body or object.
What is an off-center or eccentric area?
This law states the total angular momentum of a rotating body remains constant if the net torque acting on it remains zero.
What is the law of conservation of angular momentum?
This type of movement pattern is free of energy leaks.
What is proficient?
Thrust, drag and buoyance are all examples of this type of force.
What is external?
Swinging a baseball bat is an example of this class lever.
What is a third class lever.
In combination, linear and angular motion make up this type of motion, commonly seen around us.
What is general motion?
An example of this principle states that in order to stand up from a sitting position, we push down on the armrest to propel our body upward.
What is principle 5?
"I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people", said this past scientist.
Who is Sir Isaac Newton?
This law of motion can be seen as a person presses into the ground while they walk, the ground presses back into that person.
What is action-reaction?
Levers perform various functions such as balancing forces and providing this type of advantage.
What is mechanical?
Also known as the "moment of force", this rotary effect is created by an eccentric force.
What is torque?
This principle states the production of maximum velocity requires the use of all possible joints in order from largest to smallest.
What is principle 3?
Winners of back to back World Series Championships in the early 90s, this is also Mr. Abell's favorite team.
Who are the Toronto Blue Jays.
Sir Isaac Newton made the first reflecting telescope, developed a theory on color and he also shares in credit for the development of this branch of mathematics.
What is calculus?
Sage advice has landscapers making use of this class lever on a frequent basis.
What is a second class lever?
Angular motion can occur in these three different areas. In each case, an off-center force has caused rotation about an axis.
What are rotations of the entire body, individual body segments and objects or projectiles.
These factors must be considered when generating torque.
George Costanza teaches these Yankees how to hit home runs.
Who are Derek Jeter and Bernie Williams?
