Mechanics 2 Flashcards
Projectiles: Horizontal velocity
u cos θ
Projectiles: Vertical velocity
u sin θ -gt
Projectiles: Horizontal displacement
u cos θ t
Projectiles: Vertical displacement
u sin θ t -0.5gt^2
sec^2 θ =
tan^2 θ + 1
Work Done
Force x distance in the direction of the force
Change in Kinetic Energy
0.5mv^2 - 0.5mu^2 (= Fs)
Power
Work done / Time
Uniform Object
Centre of mass is at the centre of symmetry
Moment
Force x Perpendicular distance
What 2 things can you look at that are to do with moments?
Anticlockwise = Clockwise
Resultant force = 0
Centre of mass
(m1x1 + m2x2 + m3x3…) / m
What do you know about the centre of mass of a hanging object?
Vertical forces are equal and in line
What methods can you use to find forces?
Resultants
Moments
F=ma
How do you go from v to ω?
v=rω
