- Vectors and Scalars
- a scalar is a line with a direction
- Forces
- Contact and Non-Contact force (and resultant forces)
- A contact force is a force that need two object to toutvh to form/work
- A non-contact force is a force that doesn't need two objects to touch for it to form/work
- A resultant force is the overall force when two or more forces are acting on an object
- Examples of Non-Contact forces
- Magnetic Force
- Electric force
- Gravitational force
- Examples of Contact forces
- Applied force
- Spring force
- Drag force
- Frictional force
- Work done
- Work done = Force * Distance
- W = Joules F = Newtons d = meters
- The amount of joules 'given'/'done' onto an object
- Parallelogram and resolution of forces
- To resolve a force is doing the opposite of finding out the resultant force
- Draw a rectangle around a perpendicular arrow and find the lengths
- Create parallel lines on opposite sides to find resultant force
- Gravity and center of mass
- Gravity is generally 10 in equations but always use what is given
- The center of mass is the average position of all the masses of an object
- In a simple shape, with equal density the center of mass is in the middle
- Stretching a spring and elasticity
- Extension = extended - original
- Force and extension are proportional until the limit of proportionality
- Elastic potential = 0.5 * spring connstant * extention2
- Force = Extenstion * Spring constant
- Contact and Non-Contact force (and resultant forces)
- A vector is a line with direction and value
- Examples of Scalars
- Length
- Mass
- Power
