force and acceleration Flashcards

1
Q

explain required practical car and acceleration

A

so ypu have a toy car attached to a string attached to a pulley attached to a weight which starts at like 100g and is lying off the table. the table has chalk marks of the distance the car will travel. record the experiment for timings as its very fast and release the weight. repeat this with different weights. you can also do this with dif masses on the car which will slow down acceleration

Q

whats newtons second law of motion

A

acceleration is proportional to force applied
acceleration is inversely prop to mass of an object
F = A x M

Q

whar is terminal velocity

A

-when an objects oposing force speeds up and becomes equal to its weight and there is no resultnat force, stopping acceleration
- max velocity attainable by an object moving through a fluid

Q

what increases the braking force and what is it

A
  • force required to stop a vehicle
  • needs more force if the car is going faster or if it weighs more

Q

whats hookes law

A

when a spring is stretched furthe rthan it can bounce back it becomes inproprtional to the amount of forced put on it to stretch
therefore on a graph it will not be a line

16
Q

whats hookes law as an equation

A

F = K x E

17
Q

WHATs a spring consatnt

A

force needed to extend the spring by one meter

18
Q

whats inertial mass

A

how hard it is to change the velocity of an object

19
Q

whats weight

A

force acting on an object due to gravity

20
Q

whats mass

A

the quantity of matter in an object

21
Q

limit of proportionality/ elastic limit

A

furthest a spring can be stretched before the extension stops being proprtional to the force applied/ inelastic deformation

22
Q

elastic deformation

A

change in an objects shape which can be reversed

23
Q

whta does the area uder a force extension graph show

A

elastic potential energy

24
Q

inelastic deformation

A

change in shape of an object which cannot be reversed once the forces have been removed

25
Q

whats deformation

A

change in shape of an object

26
Q

what affects braking distance

A
  • tyre quality
  • break squility
  • texture of road
  • mass of vehicle
  • speed of vehicle
27
Q

if a vehicle drives twice as fast, the breaking distance..

A

will increase by four

28
Q

whats normal contact force

A

when something pushes back against your force applied w an equal and opposite force
