Non-Linear Motion
An object that is being thrown, cast or launched is called ________.
Projectile
Having the capacity to do work / stored energy
potential energy
the tendency of things to resist a change in motion.
inertia
to break down into smaller pieces
decompose
the ability to do work
energy
The path a projectile travels.
trajectory
the energy of motion
kinetic energy
speed plus direction
velocity
to change from one form to another
converted
forces of equal strength acting on each other
balanced forces
Any motion that does not travel in a straight line.
non- linear motion
in the equation GPE= weight x height , what does GPE stand for?
Gravitational potential energy
the property that gives things inertia
mass
energy that can be converted into a form that we can use
usable energy
a change in velocity over a given time
acceleration
non-linear motion that travels in a circle (curved motion)
circular motion or rotational motion
the power stored in a stretched object (rubber band / spring) also called strain potential energy
elastic potential energy
the force that causes objects to slow down and stop
friction
a natural resource that once used up can NOT be replaces/ restored
nonrenewable energy
transfer of energy from 1 object to another/ thermal energy
heat energy
Any object that follows a curved path or a rotational movement is showing _______ motion.
Non- linear motion.
the energy stored in molecules also called chemical stored energy
chemical potential energy
__________ = mass * (speed + direction)
momentum
law of physics that states that energy is conserved - the total amount of energy doesn't change but is converted from one form to another.
Law of conservation of energy
energy of motion
kinetic energy
