ASSUMPTIONS TO STATE Flashcards
1
Q
Uniform mass distribution
A
For everyhting state so you can take centre of mass etc
This means the centre of mass is where line of symmetry occurd
2
Q
Assumption of smooth surfaces, pulleys,
A
No friction here so resultant force notaffected
3
Q
Assumption no air resistance when converting between gravity and kinetic energy
A
Works is conserved
4
Q
With upthrusg if some of the air is above the surface then
WHY SO WE ASSUME IT DOESNF
A
There is also force form air resistance sect i g down maybe, assume not
because th density kf the air is much less than density if water
