Q

4 types of friction

A

Static: Between objects that are not moving
Sliding: When two objects slide over each other
Rolling: When an object rolls over another object
Fluid: Friction caused by water/air

16
Q

Newtons 1st Law

A

Inertia: A body at rest or in motion will stay at rest or in motion unless acted upon by an external force

17
Q

Newtons 2nd Law

A

Acceleration: The rate of acceleration of a body is proportional to the force applied to it, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object

18
Q

Newtons 3rd Law:

A

Action-Reaction: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

19
Q

eg of 1st law creating movement (golf)

A

Golf ball remains on the tee unless force is exerted on it

20
Q

Eg of 1st law changing movement (golf)

A

Once hit, the ball would travel forever if no forces were acting to stop it moving

21
Q

What forces stop a golf ball moving (1st law example)

A

Air resistance- slows it down
Gravity: Pulls it down
Friction: Stops it rolling

22
Q

Eg of 2nd law (sprinting)

A

If 2 sprinters apply the same force to a starting block the one with less mass will accelerate faster

23
Q

Eg of 3rd law (swimming)

A

Swimmer diving of the blocks pushes on the kicker and the kicker applies the exact same back to the athletes foot

24
Q

Eg of 2nd law (golf)

A

A small force applied to a ball using a putter results in slow acceleration
