newton's law

    Cards (49)

    • Force is a push or a pull exerted by an object on another
    • Force between two bodies that are in contact with each
      other is called contact force
    • muscular force, friction force, and Spring force is an example of contact force
    • Force that acts even if the interacting bodies are
      separated by a distance is called noncontact or action
      at a distance force
    • Examples of noncontact forces are gravitational force,
      electrostatic force between charged bodies and
      magnetic force
    • Gravitational force is the attractive force exerted
      by objects with mass
    • Electromagnetic force is the force that holds
      atoms and molecules together
    • Strong nuclear force is the force between
      protons and neutrons in a nucleus
    • Weak nuclear force plays a role in the radioactive
      decay of some nuclei
    • Grand Unified Theory is the theory that
      attempted to unify strong nuclear force, weak
      nuclear force, and electromagnetic force
    • Theory of Everything is theory that tried to unite
      all fundamental forces
    • only the electromagnetic force and the
      weak nuclear force have been successfully united to
      form the electroweak force through the efforts of
      Sheldon Glashow Abdus Salam and Steven
      Weinberg in the 1970 ’ reducing the fundamental
      forces from four to three
    • ISAAC NEWTON
      1. He was credited for being the first to describe the motion of massive objects and formulate the three laws of motion. Newton’s laws of motion constitute the fundamental principles of dynamics, which deals with force in relation to the motion of an object
    • Newton’s first, second, and third laws
      of motion are also called
      1.
      Law of Inertia
      2.
      Law of Acceleration
      3.
      Law of Interaction
    • The law of inertia states that a body at rest
      will remain at rest and a body in motion will
      continue to move with constant velocity
      unless acted upon by an unbalanced
      external force.
    • A resultant force that is not equal to zero is considered an
      unbalanced force.
    • The net force or resultant force is the vector sum of all the
      forces acting on a body.
    • Inertia is the property of a body that tends to resist change
      in its state of motion.
    • Mass is a measure of inertia
    • The greater the mass , the greater the inertia . The
      greater the inertia , the harder it is to change the state of
      motion of a body.
    • Newton’s law of inertia as well as Republic Act 8750
      (otherwise known as The Seat Belt Use Act of 1999) are
      two reasons why we need to use seatbelts.
    • The net force of an object is equal to the
      product of its mass and acceleration, or
      F=ma.
    • The acceleration of the body is directly proportional to the
      net force acting upon it.
    • Furthermore, the acceleration is inversely proportional to
      the mass of the body.
    • The greater the mass of a body, the lesser the acceleration.
    • 1 N = 1 kg · m/s²
      1 dyne = 1 g · cm/
      1 N = 10⁵ dynes
    • The weight of a body on Earth is the measure of the force
      of gravity exerted by Earth on it.
    • On the other hand, mass is the amount of matter of a body
      contains.
    • Mass and weight are related as
      w = mg
    • The mass of the body is constant while its weight
      depends on the value of acceleration due to gravity .
    • Newton’s third law of motion states that for
      every action, there is an equal but opposite
      reaction.
    • Work is defined as the dot product of force F and
      displacement d in the direction of the force.
    • The SI unit of work is the newton meter (N · m)m), also
      called the Joule (J) in honor of James Prescott Joules.
    • A smaller unit of work is the erg , which is derived from
      ergon, the Greek word for “ work ”.
    • 1 J = 1 N · m
      1 erg = 1 dyne · cm
      1 J = 10⁷ ergs
    • Energy is defined as the capacity to do work
    • Energy comes in many forms. These include light energy,
      chemical energy, heat energy, and electrical energy
    • Mechanical Energy is the sum of the potential and
      kinetic energies of the body.
    • Potential energy represented by U is the energy
      possessed by a body by virtue of its position or
      configuration
    • There are two types of potential energy
      Gravitational Potential Energy (U g)
      Elastic Potential Energy (U s)
