forces and elasticity

Cards (13)

  • What should you be able to state by the end of the video?
    The difference between elastic and inelastic deformation
  • What is one of the calculations you should be able to perform by the end of the video?
    Calculate the force needed to stretch or compress an object
  • What happens to an elastic object when the forces acting on it are removed?
    It returns to its original length or shape
  • What are examples of elastic materials mentioned in the video?
    • Slinky
    • Rubber bands
    • Rubber gloves
    • Eraser
    • Clay ground surface
    • Tennis ball
  • What is the definition of elastic deformation?
    Changes in length or shape that return to the original state when forces are removed
  • What is the effect of applying only one force to a stationary object?
    The object would simply move rather than changing length or shape
  • What is the difference between elastic and inelastic materials?
    Elastic materials return to their original length, while inelastic materials do not
  • What is the equation to calculate the force needed to stretch an elastic object?
    Force (N) = Spring constant (N/m) × Extension (m)
  • If the spring constant is 200 N/m and the extension is 0.04 m, what is the force required?
    8 N
  • What is stored in an elastic object when it is stretched or compressed?
    Elastic potential energy
  • When is the work done equal to the elastic potential energy?
    When the object is not inelastically deformed
  • What is the next topic to be covered in the following video?
    • Required practical on stretching a spring
    • Questions on forces and elasticity
  • Where can students find additional questions on forces and elasticity?
    In the vision workbook linked in the video
