force applied on an object by pushing or pullling
Apllied force
Force exerted by gravity
Gravitational froce
Force perpendicular to the surface
Normal force
Force in cables strings cords and other similar materials
Tension force
Force present in springs
Elastic Force
Force that impedes motion
Frictional force
NEwtons 1st law of motion
Law of inertia:An object at rest will stay at rest
A tendency in a body to resist a change in motion
Inertia
Newtons 2nd law of motion
Law of acceleration: a+f/m
Newtons 3rd law:
Law of interaction: For every action there is an equal of opposite reaction
motion that allows and object to follow a particular path with maintaining a constant speed
Uniform circular motion
- Center seeking force
-net external force that allows obect to accelerate in a circular motion
Centripetal force
Centripetal force formula
f=ma
Amount of time need to make a full rotation measured in seconds
Period
Number of rotations per unit time
Frequency
