force, friction gravity and the laws of motion

  • The weight of an object is equal to its mass times gravitational field strength.
  • Newton's First Law states that if there are no forces acting on an object, it will continue moving at a constant velocity or remain stationary.
  • For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
  • Gravity is the force that pulls objects towards one another due to their masses.
  • The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
  • The weight of an object is equal to its mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity.
  • An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
  • If an unbalanced force acts on an object, it will accelerate in the direction of the net force.
  • Frictional forces act between two surfaces in contact and oppose relative movement between them.
  • Frictional forces act between two surfaces in contact with each other and oppose relative movement between them.
  • Acceleration is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force acting on an object and inversely proportional to its mass.
  • Static friction acts when one body is not moving against another, while kinetic friction acts when both bodies are moving relative to each other.
  • Static friction acts when one body tries to move against another static body.
  • Kinetic friction acts when one body moves over another kinetic body.
  • Friction is the resistance between two surfaces when they move against each other.
  • Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of rest or uniform motion.
  • Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.
  • Rolling friction occurs between wheels and the ground.
  • Kinetic friction acts when two surfaces are sliding over each other.
  • Static friction acts when two surfaces are not sliding over each other but have some tendency to slide.
  • Static friction occurs when two surfaces are not sliding against each other but are held together by some form of attraction.
  • Kinetic friction occurs when two surfaces are moving relative to each other.
  • Frictional forces act between two surfaces in contact when they are moving relative to each other or if they have different shapes.
  • Kinetic friction occurs when there is relative movement between two surfaces in contact.
  • Static friction occurs when two surfaces are stationary relative to each other but can move past each other.
  • Static friction occurs when there is no relative movement between two surfaces in contact.
  • Static friction occurs when there is no relative movement between two objects that are touching each other.
  • Rolling resistance is the frictional force opposing the rolling motion of an object over a surface.
