Cards (18)

  • Force equasion
    F = M x A
  • Weight equasion

    Mass x Gravity
  • Momentum
    mass x velocity
  • impulse
    force x time
  • moment of inertia equasion
    moment of intertia = mass x radius²
  • speed equasion
    speed = distance / time
  • velocity equasion
    velocity = displacement / time
  • types of forces
    1. air and water
    2. gravity
    3. friction
  • Inertia
    an objects resistance to being moved
    more mass = harder to move
  • newtons first law

    an objecct will remain at rest or at constant movement until an external force acts upon it
  • newtons second law
    the force applied to the object will produce a change in motion
  • newtons third law
    every action has an equal and opposite reaction
  • torque
    a type of force that doesnt move through the center of gravity
  • things that affect projectile motion
    1. height of release
    2. angle of release
    3. speed of release
  • equilibrium
    when an object has no unballenced forces or torque acting on it
  • stability
    resistance to disrupt equilibrum
  • balance
    the ability to control equilibrum
  • base of support
    the area between whatever is touching the ground holding you up
