A
Fres=Mass x Acceleration
4
Q
When there’s no air resistance all objects fall at the same rate of…
A
10m/s2
5
Q
Spring
A
Force (F) =spring constant (k) x extension (e)
6
Q
Extension
A
E=Extended length-Natural length
7
Q
Pressure
A
P=F divided by A Pressure=Force divided by Area
8
Q
How can you improve stability?
A
Widen the base and lower the centre of gravity.
9
Q
FAPso
A
Force, Area, Pressure so… Force applied over large area=low pressure. Small area=high pressure.
10
Q
