21
Q

What are the three conditions to consider when evaluating a problem

A

Static equilibrium
Dynamic Equilibrium
Accelerated Motion

22
Q

Newton’s first law of motion

A

An Object will maintain its condition unless an outside force acts on it

23
Q

Static Equilibrium

A

No Motion

24
Q

Dynamic Equilibrium

A

Motion that is constant (Balanced Forces)

25
Q

Formula for Dynamic Equilibrium

A

Net Force (Fx or Fy)= 0 Newtons

26
Q

Formula for Static Equilibrium

A

Net Force (Fx or Fy)= 0 Newtons

27
Q

Newton’s Second Law of Motion

A

Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force and indirectly proportional to the object’s mass

28
Q

Accelerated Motion

A
Motion Changing(velocity) 
Unbalanced Forces
ΣFx or Fy=Ma(xy)
29
Q

ΣFy=0 Newtons

A

ΣFy=Fn+(-Fg)+(-Fpy)
