quarter 2 - q2 Flashcards
When there is a change in motion, there is ____.
work
work is a scalar quantity
true or false
true
Result of a force acting upon an object to cause a displacement of the object; when you move in place, then there is no ______ done.
work
work formula
w=fd
In order for a force to qualify as having _____ done on an object, there must be a displacement and the force must be the cause of that displacement.
work
- Only the force that acts on the direction of motion counts towards work
true or false
true
- this formula only applies if F and d are parallel (same direction)
w = fd
formula If force and
displacement do
not point in the
same direction
W=Fd (cos)
TYPES OF WORK (3)
WORK AGAINST INERTIA
WORK AGAINST FRICTION
WORK AGAINST GRAVITY
Applying force to cause change in motion
E.g. throwing/kicking a ball
Work against inertia
Involves height
W = mgh
m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
Work against gravity
Work in going up and going down will always be equal no matter how slow or how quick the person moved
TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE
Ability to do work.
Expressed in Joules
ENERGY
No energy means no work is done.
TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE
: property of a body or system of bodies by which work can be done or performed.
Energy
