34
Q

Affects of force

A
  • Change the shape of the object
    -Move the object
35
Q

Friction

A

When 2 surfaces come together opposing the motion of an object

36
Q

Air and water resistance

A

When an object travels through water or air it will experience drag force, opposing direction of object and slowing it down

37
Q

Gravitational Forxe

A

Force of attraction between two bodies of objects

38
Q

Mass

A

The amount of matter an object is made up of

39
Q

Weight

A

The force that is exerted on the body by gravity
Weight= Mass x Gravity

40
Q

Inertia

A

The tendency for a body to resist change in its state of motion (rest or moving)

41
Q

Momentum

A

The amount of motion an object has and its resistance to changing that motion
Momentum= mass x velocity

42
Q

Conservation of momentum

A

Total momentum of the system before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision

43
Q

Summation of momentum

A

By coordinating all body parts involved in the movement you are able to generate maximum velocity

44
Q

Impulse

A

Equal to change in momentum of object
Impulse= force x time

45
Q

Newtons first law of motion

A

Law of inertia: A body will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force

46
Q

Newtons second law of motion

A

Law of acceleration: A force applied to an object will produce a change in motion in the direction of the applied force that is directly proportional to the size of the force

47
Q

Newtons third law of motion

A

Law of action reaction: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

48
Q

Torque

A

A measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis
Torque =force x lever arm

49
Q

Newtons first law of angular motion

A

The angular momentum of a body remains constant unless acted upon by an external torque

50
Q

Newtons second law of angular motion

A

A torque applies to an object will produce a change in angular motion in the direction of the applied torque that is directly proportional to the size of the torque and inversely proportional to the moment of inertia of the object

51
Q

Newtons third law of angular momentum

A

For every torque there is an equal and opposite torque

52
Q

Moment of inertia

A

Moment of inertia= mass x radius

53
Q

Motion

A

Nearly all human motions is called general motion a combination of linear and angular motion

54
Q

Liner motion

A

Movement of a body along a straight or curved path where all body parts move in the same direction at the same speed

55
Q

Distance

A

Measures from start to finish regardless of direction

56
Q

Displacement

A

Change of position

57
Q

Speed

A

Speed= distance/time

58
Q

Velocity

A

Velocity= displacement/time

59
Q

A

Change in velocity in a given time period
Acceleration= change in velocity/ change in time

60
Q

A

Involves rotation around a central axis or fixed point

61
Q

A

Difference between the initial and final angular position of an object

64
Q

A

=angular distance covered/ time taken to complete the motion

65
Q

Angular velocity

A

Rate of change of the angular displacement of a body over time

66
Q

Liner velocity

A

=radius of rotation x angular velocity

67

A

The rate of change of angular velocity, how quickly a body changes its angular position measured in degrees per second

68
Q

Projectile motion

A

Object or body that is launched into air and affected only by the forces of gravity and air resistance

69
Q

Equilibrium

A

When there are no unbalanced forces or torques acting on body or object

70
Q

Static equilibrium

A

When body or object is not moving or roating

71
Q

Dynamic equilibrium

A

When body or object is moving with a constant velocity (no change in speed or direction)

72
Q

Stability

A

The resistance to the disruption of equilibrium

73
Q

Balance

A

The ability to control equilibrium

74
Q

Factors affecting stability

A

-Base of support
-Centre of gravity
-Body mass
-Friction between body and the surfaces contacted

75
Q

Base of support

A

Larger the base of support = greater the stability

76
Q

Centre of gravity

A

The point around which the body or object is balanced, generally found close to the belly button

77
Q

Line of gravity

A

The direction in which gravity acts is called the line of gravity

78
Q

Ways to enhance equilibrium

A
  • Increase base of support
  • Ensuring line of gravity falls within the base of support
  • Lowering the centre of gravity
  • Increasing body mass
  • Increasing friction between body and surface
    -Extending base of support in direction of oncoming force
    -Shifting line of gravity towards oncoming force
79
Q

Levers

A

Machines consisting of a rigid bar that can be made to rotate around an axis in order to extend a force on another object

80
Q

First class lever

A

The resistance and the force are on either side of the axis

81
Q

Second class lever

A

The resistance is between the force and the axis

82
Q

Third class lever

A

The force is between the resistance and the axis (most common type of lever)

83
Q

Mechanical advantage

A

= force/ resistance arm
-Mechanical advantage>1 : less effort to move a resistance
-Mechanical advantage<1 : Increase range of motion, increase angular speed
