Circular Motion
Motion of an object around an axis of rotation and the axis is not part of the object.
What is Circular Motion?
What are the two physical quantities that determine the force of gravity between two objects?
Mass and distance
What is a satellite?
Something that orbits another object
Length
Meters (m)
A push or pull one object exerts on another
What is Force
Name of the force that keeps an object on a circular path.
What is Centripetal Force?
What is the Formula for Weight?
F = mg
Shape of a satellite motion
Circular
Speed/Velocity
Meters Per Second (m/s)
Rate at which work is done or energy is used
What is POWER?
Newton's 2nd Law for Circular Motion.
What is F = m(v^2)/r
What is g?
The acceleration due to gravity on a planet's surface.
What are the planets to the sun?
Satellites
Acceleration
Meters per second squared (m/s^2)
The distance (in a straight line) between where you started and where you ended
What is displacement?
Direction of the force that keeps an object on a circular path.
What is perpendicular and towards the center?
What is G?
The Constant of Universal Gravitation
What is geosynchronous orbit?
Orbit that takes 24 hours to complete over the equator. (Always over the same spot on Earth)
Kinetic Energy
Joules
Force Acting through a time interval
What is Impulse?
Centrifugal Force is fake, this is the real reason you get pushed to the "outside" when you travel on a circular path
Inertia
State the formal for the force of gravity between two objects
Fg = Gm1m2/r^2
What is the centripetal force of satellites?
Gravity
Momentum
Kilogram meters per second (kgm/s)
Name the Five Major Categories of Energy in Nature
Mechanical, Electromagnetic, Chemical, Nuclear, Thermal (Order may vary)
