Q

newton’s first law of motion

A

the law of inertia: states that if the body is at rest, it will remain in motion with constant speed in a straight line unless there is a net force acting upon it

Q

newton’s second law of motion

A

law of acceleration: if a net force “F” acting on the body of mass “m” is not zero, the body acceleration “a” is proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass of the body

17
Q

acceleration formula in terms of force

A

a=f/m

18
Q

newton’s law of gravitation

A

states that the force on a spherical object of mass m1 due to the gravitational pull of mass m2 is:

f=Gm1m2/r^2

19
Q

what is the constant value of gravity

A

6.67408×10-11Nm2/kg2

20
Q

is the product of force and the time it acts

A

impulse

21
Q

impulse formula

A

I=Ft

22
Q

is the product of the mass and the velocity of the body

A

momentum

23
Q

momentum formula

A

P=mv

24
Q

is equal to the change in momentum

A

impulse-momentum theorem

25
Q

impulse-momentum theorem formula

A

Ft=mv2-mv1

26
Q

the law of conservation of momentum

A

when two bodies of masses m1 and m2 collide, the total momentum before impact is equal to the total momentum after impact

27
Q

equation for the law of conservation of momentum

A

m1v1+m2v2=m1v1+m2v2

28
Q

occurs when two or more objects hit each other

A

collisions

29
Q

concept of collisions

A

when objects collide, each object feels a force for a short amount of time. This force for a short amount of time. This force impart an impulse, or changes the momentum of each of the colliding objects. But if the system of particles is isolated, we know that momentum is conserved. Therefore, while the momentum of each individual particle involved in the collision changes, the total momentum of the system remains constant
