  • vector quantities include velocity momentum acceleration displacement force and weight
  • speed does not involve direction
  • speed is a scalar quality
  • speed is a scalar quantity
  • is speed vector or scalar
    scalar
  • walking speed
    1.5 m/s
  • running speed
    3 m/s
  • cycling speed
    6 m/s
  • what can affect the speeds
    age , terrain , fitness and distance travelled
  • car
    30 m/s
  • plane
    250 m/s
  • train
    50 m/s
  • velocity is speed in a given direction
  • velocity is a vector
  • when something moves in a circle its direction is changing constantly
  • when something moves in a circle the speed stays the same but the velocity is always changing
  • what is the centripetal force
    the force needed for circular motion which acts in the center of the circle
  • all objects moving in a circle re always accelerating towards the center of the circle
  • acceleration = change in velocity / time taken
  • (final velocity) 2 − (initial velocity) 2 = 2 × acceleration × distance
  • if the resultant force on an object is zero and ...
    the object is still , it stays still
  • if the resultant force acting on an object is zero and
    the object is moving then it will still move at the same speed in the same direction
  • the velocity of an object will only change if a resultant force acts on the object
  • what is inertia
    the tendency of objects to continue in their state of rest or uniform motion
  • newtons second law
    the acceleration is directly proportional to the resultant force and inversely proportional to the mass
  • resultant force = mass x acceleration
  • what is inertial mass
    how difficult it is the change an objects velocity
  • newtons third law
    when two objects interact the forces they exert on each other are equal and opposite
  • pressure = force / surface area
  • pressure = height of column x liquid density x gravitational field strength
  • breaking distance is the distance traveled after breaks are hit
