V=u+at
V2=u2+2as
S=ut+1/2at2

18
Q

Why does the moon orbit the Earth, although the earth and moon have equal forces.

A

The smaller mass means it has a large acceleration

19
Q

Newtons 1st law

A

If there is no resultant force on an object its velocity will not change

20
Q

Newtons 2nd law

A

When a resultant force acts on a body, the acceleration produced is proportional to the force and in the same direction

21
Q

Newtons 3rd law

A

When an object exerts a force on a second, the second object exerts an equal but opposite force on the first

22
Q

The resultant force

A

The sum of all the forces acting on an object

23
Q

What happens to a skydiver when they dive

A

As their velocity increases there drag force increases, eventually they equalise and they travel with constant acceleration

24
Q

OC

A

Is proportional to

25
Q

Force =

A

F=Ma

Mass x acceleration

26
Q

Momentum =

A

P=mv

Momentum = mass x velocity

27
Q

Change in momentum

A

F= delta p/ time

28
Q

Work done

A

Work done = fd

W= force x distance moved

29
Q

Power=

A

P=e/t

Power=energy / time

30
Q

Perpendicular vectors

A

Have no effect on each other
