EXAM 2 Flashcards
PROJECTILE MOTION
W/O AIR RESISTENCE AND GRAVITY, WOULD BE LINEAR.
-45 DEGREE IS OPTIMAL ANGLE FOR DISTANCE.
DRAG FORCES
GREATER THAN 45 DEGREE CREATES DRAG.
- FORM DRAG
- SURFACE DRAG
- WAVE DRAG
FORM DRAG
DRAG DUE TO SHAPE OF OBJECT
SURFACE DRAG
THE FRICTION OF SURFACE
WAVE DRAG
DUE TO DENSITY DIFF OF 2 FLUIDS
LIFT FORCES
FORCE ACTING ON A BODY IN A FLUID IN A DIRECTION.
LESS THAN 45 DEGREES CREATE LIFT.
MAGNUS EFFECT
LIFT FORCE CREATED BY SPIN
- LIFT FORCE DIRECTED FROM HIGH TO LOW PRESSURE.
- HIGH PRESSURE AND LOW VELO ON OBJECT SPINNING OPO OF SPIN
HYDRODYNAMICS / AERODYNAMICS
BECOMES MORE HYDRO AND AERODYNAMICS
- SHAPE:LONGER
- LAB: DOGGIE PADDLE CREATE DRAG FORCE
Center OF GRAVITY
POINT OF BODY WHERE MASS IS DISTRIBUTED.
-NO FIXED POINT.
CENTER OF BUYANCY
POINT WHERE YOUR BUYANT PARTS ARE DISTRIBUTED.
- SINK WITH MUSCLE
- FLOAT WITH FAT AND AIR.
- FLOAT WITH COB NO COG
KINETIC LINK PRINCIPLE
TRANSFER OF ENERGY FROM THE MOST PROXIMAL TO MOST DISTAL TO GENERATE MOST FORCE.
-*BLOCKING ALLOWS TRANSFER OF ENERGY MORE EFFICIENT BY STOPPING LARGE SEGMENT AND FORCE ROTATING ROUND IT.
