Q

What are 2 forces that are resistive forces?

A
  • Friction
  • Air resistance
19
Q

During a free-fall without air resistance, which usually reaches the ground first?

A

The heavier object

20
Q

What’s the term for constant velocity?

A

Terminal velocity

21
Q

Explain the skydiver jumping out of plane
(Free fall with air resistance)
(2 points)

A
  • 0 air resistance
  • W > R therefore acceleration
22
Q

Explain skydiver falling for more than a few seconds now
(Free fall with air resistance)
(2 points)

A
  • Getting faster = air resistance increases rapidly
  • Less acceleration but still getting faster
23
Q

Explain skydiver reaching terminal velocity?
(Free fall with air resistance)
(3 points)

A
  • Reaches speed where W = R
  • Resultant force = 0
  • 0 acceleration
24
Q

Explain skydiver releasing parachute?
(Free fall with air resistance)
(3 points)

A
  • Drag force beings to rapidly increase
  • He starts to decelerate
  • R > W
25
Q

Explain skydiver’s parachute fully open?
(Free fall with air resistance)
(3 points)

A
  • Large surface area = Larger drag force
  • R > W
  • He quickly slows down, still moving down
26
Q

Explain parachutist reaching terminal velocity
(Free fall with air resistance)
(3 points)

A
  • Eventually balances weight force
  • R = W
  • Moves much slower terminal velocity
27
Q

A

The product of its mass and its velocity

28
Q

Momentum equation?

A

33
Q

State the principle of conservation of momentum?
(3 way)

A
  • In any collision within an isolated system,
  • total momentum of interacting bodies
  • remains constant
34
Q

Equation form of the principle of conservation of momentum?

A

(M1 x U1) + (M2 x U2) = (M1 x V1) + (M2 x V2)

35
Q

Equation form of the principle of conservation of momentum expressed in words?

40
Q

Explain elastic collision?
(2 things)

A
  • All KE conserved
  • KE stays the same
41
Q

Explain inelastic collision
(2-way + 1)

A
  • Some/all KE lost/converted,
  • to thermal or others kinds of energy
  • KE decreases
42
