Chap 11&12 Flashcards
Two equipments used in Exp 11
Hooked Mass & Centripetal Force Apparatus
Object moves in a circulat motion w constant speed
Uniform Circular Motion
Acceleration of an object in UCM
Centripetal Acceleration
Acceleration is always inward/ to the center
Centripetal Acceleration
Inward force of an objct in UCM
Centripetal Force
To and fro motion of objects
Vibratory Motion
Force needed to deform a spring
Elastic limit
Relationship of Force & Elongation
Always opposite to each other
Relationship of spring & mass
Directly proportional
Restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement away from the equilibrium
Simple Harmonic Motion
Period^2 &mass relationship?
Directly proportional
K1 and k2 have?
Equal values
Motion repeats itself regularly at equal time intervals
Periodic Motion
Simplest type of vibration or periodic motion
Simple Harmonic motion
What disturbs a vibration on the spring?
External force such as air resistance / intermolecular friction
