LECTURE #9 - linear kinetics Flashcards
how many laws of motion are there ?
3
what is the first law of motion ?
law of inertia
what is the second law of motion ?
law of acceleration
what is the third law of motion ?
law of reaction
what is inertia ?
objects resistance to change in state of motion
define law of inertia :
an object at rest or in motion will stay that way, unless acted upon by a net external force or an unbalanced force
what does “uniform motion” mean ?
constant velocity
what does “forced impressed” mean ?
external forces
what is bill nye’s description of law of inertia ?
inertia is a property of matter
TRUE OR FALSE
with inertia you are maintaining a constant velocity unless a force pushes it ?
TRUE
when interpreting law of inertia :
“object at rest and no external forced acting on it” =
remains at rest
when interpreting law of inertia : “object in motion and no external forced acting on it” =
continues moving at constant velocity
when interpreting law of inertia : “object at rest and external forces do act on it” =
object remains at rest only if resultant external forces is zero (net external force = 0)
TRUE OR FALSE
more mass = harder to move (resistance to move)
TRUE
TRUE OR FALSE
mass is dependent on inertia (mass with more mass have more inertia; therefore more difficult to cause a change in the state of motion)
TRUE
