Units
The unit of measurement for energy is
(J) Joule
Formula for Kinetic Energy
KE= 0.5x m x v^2
The downward force acting on all falling bodies
Gravity
In one word, how do we define Newton's 1st law
inertia
The unit of measurement for force is
(N) Newton
Formula for force
F= M x A
air resistance
What is Newton's first law?
An object at rest will stay at rest, an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force
The unit of measurement for acceleration is
m/s^2
How do you rewrite F= M x A to find mass when given acceleration and force
F/A = M
opposite of gravity in liquids
buoyancy
What is Newton's 2nd law?
F=MxA
The unit of measurement for mass is
(Kg) kilograms
How do you determine Net Force?
F2 - F1
the four forces acting on a single object
normal force, gravity, thrust, drag
What is the relationship between acceleration and force?
example as one increases the other decreases
As acceleration increases so does force
The unit of measurement for velocity is
m/s
Formula for acceleration
a= Vf-Vi / t
the force that opposes relative motion between objects
friction
What is Newton's 3rd Law?
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first.
