Linear Kinetics

Question 1

What is Kinetics?

Answer 1

The study of motion with the inclusion of mass, force, and energy as they affect motion.

Question 2

What three things do kinetics include?

Answer 2

Mass, force, energy

Question 3

What is mass?

Answer 3

How much matter we are made of.

Question 4

What is inertia?

Answer 4

Resistance to a change in state of motion.

Question 5

What is force?

Answer 5

Simply defined as a push or pull

Question 6

What do mechanical relationships depend on?

Answer 6

Mass

Question 7

What is mass a measure of?

Answer 7

Matter

Question 8

What is matter?

Answer 8

The substance of which physical objects are composed.

Question 9

T/F Without matter there is no physical interactions

Answer 9

True

Question 10

T/F Mass can be thought of of how many tiny bits of matter you are made of

Answer 10

True

Question 11

T/F Our weight is the force of gravity acting on our mass

Answer 11

True

Question 12

T/F Because you are weightless doesn’t mean you are massless.

Answer 12

True

Question 13

What is the idea behind the “old” kilogram

Answer 13

The idea is that mass changes overtime (i.e. the iron rod oxidizing overtime or picking up dust particles to make it heavier)

Question 14

The “New Kilogram”

-What was the date?

Answer 14

• May 20, 2019
• The new definition is based on the SI constants
• It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.62607015x10^-34 expressed in unit Jxs which is equal to kgxm^2/s where the metre and second are defined in terms of c and change in vCs
