Psitin, Velcity, and Acceleratin Definitins related t mtin Reference pint: A crdinate system used t define a mtin. Psitin: Where an bject is precisely lcated. Mtin: Mvement relative t a fixed pint. Speed: The measure f hw fast smething is mving. Vectr quantity. Velcity: Speed with directin. Vectr quantity. Acceleratin: Rate f change f velcity. Equatin fr speed and units Equatin: speed equals distance divided by time Units: meters per secnd (m/s) Average speed frmulas with distance and time Difference between instantaneus and average velcity Instantaneus Velcity: The velcity that smething is traveling at any ne instance. Average Velcity: Ttal displacement ver a time interval. If the bject is traveling with cnstant velcity its instantaneus and average velcities will be the same. Difference between psitive and negative acceleratin Psitive acceleratin is acceleratin in the directin f velcity. Negative acceleratin is acceleratin ppsite the directin f velcity. 1 Made By Ashley Thmas

Frces and Newtn s 1 st and 2 nd laws f mtin Newtn s first law f mtin An bject at rest will stay at rest, and an bject in mtin will stay in mtin at a cnstant velcity, unless acted upn by an unbalanced frce. Inertia: The tendency f an bject t resist changes in its velcity, whether in mtin r mtinless. Mass is the measure f inertia in respnse t an effrt made t stp it, start it, ect. Mass and weight Definitin f mass as inertia: The prprtinal frce t cause a unit f acceleratin. Mass (as a quantity f matter: Quantity f matter in an bject. The amunt f stuff in an bject. Weight: The magnitude f the frce f gravity acting n an bject. Mass is the amunt f stuff but weight is the amunt f stuff with the frce f gravity acting n it. Newtn s secnd law f mtin The acceleratin f an bject is directly prprtinal t the net frce acting n the bject, is in the directin f the net frce, and is inversely prprtinal t the mass f the bject. Simplified Versin f 2 nd law: Net frce is equal t the mass times the acceleratin. F=ma Frce Frce: Any influence that tends t accelerate an bject. Mre simply any kind f push r pull. Net Frce: The cmbinatin f all the frces that act n an bject. Units: Newtn 2 Made By Ashley Thmas
Equilibrium Equilibrium: A state f balance. Static Equilibrium: When all the frces acting n an bject are balanced and the bject is nt mving. Dynamic Equilibrium: When all the frces acting n an bject are balanced and the bject is mving. Static and dynamic equilibrium bth invlve bjects in a state f equilibrium but in dynamic the bject is in mtin, but mving with a cnstant velcity. Balanced vs. unbalanced frces Balanced Frce: Equilibrium, the sum f frces is equal t zer. Unbalanced Frce: Nt in equilibrium, the sum f frces is equal t acceleratin times mass. Definitin f nrmal frce Nrmal Frce: A frce perpendicular t the surface, 90 degrees. Frictinal frce Frictin Frce: A frce ppsite t mtin, and parallel t the grund that it is traveling n.

The prduct f the mass and the velcity f an bject. Has magnitude and directin and therefre is a vectr quantity. p=mv The relatinship between inertia and mmentum is mmentum is inertia but in mtin. Impulse: dn t have t knw fr cmmn sectin f pre-cmp, Impulse: the prduct f frce and the time interval during which the frce acts. Prduces change in mmentum. j= j=ft Be able t slve fr any variable.

VI. Energy Wrk Wrk: The prduct f the frce n an bject and the distance thrugh which the bject is mved (when frce is cnstant and mtin is in a straight line in the directin f frce) Wrk is dne when a frce prduces mtin.
