  • Newton' 2nd Law of Motion 

    Law of Acceleration - Acceleration is directly proportional to the force and is inversely proportional to the mass.
  • Law of Acceleration
    a = F/m
  • Newton's 3rd Law of Motion

    Law of Interaction/Law of Action and Reaction - For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
  • Action and Reaction forces do not cancel each other. They act on separate bodies
  • Action and Reaction forces act simultaneously.
  • Action and Reaction forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
  • Work
    Product of the force and displacement in the direction of the force.
  • Work
    Work = ForcexDisplacement or W=Fd
  • If an object does not move after you exert a force on it, there will still be no work.
  • Work with an angle
    Work = Force x cos of angle x distance
    W = Fcos ° d
  • If the angle between force and displacement is 90 ° , the work done is 0.
  • Potential Energy
    Energy possessed by an object by virtue of its position
  • Potential Energy
    Potential Energy = Mass x Gravity x Height
    PE = mgh
  • Kinetic Energy
    Energy present in moving objects
  • Kinetic Energy
    Kinetic Energy = 1/2mass x speed^2
    KE = 1/2mv^2
  • All moving objects have kinetic energy.
  • Objects at rest do not have kinetic energy
  • Moving objects can both have potentials and kinetic energy at the same time
  • Sound
    Produced by vibrationss
  • Wave
    Any form of disturbance that carries energy from one place to another.
  • Mechanical Wave 

    Requires a medium for transmission
  • Sound Wave

    An example of a mechanical wave
  • Electromagnetic Waves

    Does not require a medium for transmission
  • Transverse
    Direction of the particles is perpendicular to the direction of the motion of the wave's propagation
  • Longitudinal
    Direction of the particles is parallel to the direction of the motion of the wave's propagation
  • Surface
    Particles travel in circular motion
  • Compression
    Part of the wave where molecules are compressed or where there are shorter wavelenghts
  • Rarefaction
    Part of the wave where molecules are spread out or stretched
  • High temperature = Faster travel of sound
    Lower temperature = Lower travel of sound
  • Speed of sound = 331 meters per second + (0.6 meters/sC)Temperature
    v=v =331m/s+ 331m/s +(0.6m/sC)T (0.6 m/sC)T
