Chapters 4-8 Flashcards
Force
Something capable of changing an objects state of motion (velocity)
Inertia
The natural tendency of an object to maintain a state of constant velociy
Newtons 1st Law
In the absence of an unbalanced force, a body maintains its velocity
An unbalanced net force shows what?
A change in velocity
Newtons 2nd law
An unbalanced net force, F, on an object of mass, m, will give it an acceleration
What are the units of force
Newtons (N)
Acceleration
A=F/m
Position Formula
x=x0+v0t+1/2at^2
Velocity
v=v0+at
Newtons 2nd Law Component Form
EFx=MAx
EFy=MAy
EFz=MAz
Fx=MAx
FCos(0)=MAx
The force exerted on an object by gravity is called?
Weight
What is the force of Gravity
9.8m/s^2
What is the equation for weight?
W=mg
What are the units of weight?
Newtons(N)
