Newton first and second law

Cards (20)

  • What are the two laws of motion discussed in the video?
    Newton's first and second laws of motion
  • What does Newton's first law state about resultant force?
    A resultant force is required to change the motion of an object
  • What happens to a stationary object if there is no resultant force acting on it?
    The object will remain stationary
  • What happens to a moving object if the resultant force is zero?
    The object will continue moving at the same velocity
  • What does Newton's second law state about non-zero resultant force?
    A non-zero resultant force will cause an object to accelerate
  • If a particle experiences an unbalanced force to the right, what will happen?
    The particle will accelerate to the right
  • What are the five possible outcomes of acceleration to the right for a particle?
    If stationary, it moves right; if moving right, it speeds up; if moving left, it slows down; if moving left slowly, it may stop; it can change direction without speed change
  • How is acceleration defined in terms of velocity and time?
    Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the change in time
  • Why does the moon accelerate even though its speed remains constant in circular motion?
    Because its direction is constantly changing
  • What causes the moon to orbit the Earth?
    The gravitational pull of the Earth's mass on the moon
  • What is the relationship between resultant force and acceleration according to Newton's second law?
    The size of the resultant force is directly proportional to the acceleration
  • What is the equation that relates force, mass, and acceleration?
    F = m a
  • How do you calculate the resultant force if a force of 30 newtons acts to the left and 42 newtons to the right?
    The resultant force is 12 newtons to the right
  • If a particle has a mass of 0.25 kg and a resultant force of 12 newtons, what is its acceleration?
    The acceleration is 48 m/s248 \text{ m/s}^2
  • What is inertia?
    Inertia is the tendency for the motion of an object to remain unchanged
  • How does Newton's first law relate to inertia?
    It states that objects at rest stay at rest and objects in motion stay in motion unless acted on by a resultant force
  • How is inertial mass defined?
    Inertial mass measures how difficult it is to change an object's velocity
  • How do you calculate inertial mass?
    By dividing force by acceleration
  • What does a large mass indicate about an object's inertia?
    A large mass indicates a lot of inertia, requiring a large force to change its velocity
  • What is the conclusion of the video regarding Newton's laws and inertia?
    Newton's laws explain the motion of objects and the concept of inertia
