Forces are defined as a push or pull on an object and can be categorized into contact and non-contact types, such as gravity and electromagnetic forces. They occur due to interactions between objects.
Change in position is speed and speed with direction is velocity. When put into a graph the slope of a position and time graph is the Velocity.
speed and how it relates
Speed is change in position over change in time. So change in position over change in time with a direction is velocity.
Examples
30M/S North
100mph south
9.8m/s down
What is velocity
Velocity is speed with direction.
Constant Acceleration
Velocity and how it relates
Change in velocity is what
Accerleration is. If qualified
into a velocity graph the slope
will be the Acceleration
Examples of Acceleration
-A ball rolling down a hill
-A 500M sprint
-Airplane taking off
What is Acceleration
Accerleration is when
the change in Velocity is
greater than 0 on an object.
Note: velocity can by 0 and
it could still have acceleration
Dynamics (FORCES)
what are forces?
What kind
Forces come in contact and non-contact
an example of non-contact include Gravity,
electromagnetic,and nuclear forces. Contact
includes basically everything else.
When they occur
All forces occur when two objects
interact either through contact or
non contact forces
Definition
A force is a push or a pull on an object
Newton's 3rd law
pairs
Forces always come in equal pairs, this is what the third law implies
What happens to objects
When a force is acting on an object the object applying the orce and the object which is being affected they push on eachother with an equal force
When it's prevelant
Whenever there is a force the third law is always in affect
What it is
A rule that the universe follows proposed by Isaac newton. The third rule talks about how forces push on objects
Mechanics Scientific process
What these represent
These are all ways to relate changes in position, time, velocit, and acceleration. When speaking of mechanics all of the ideas are ocnnected through fractions and slopes making it a system that is easy to understand.
for every statement
For every statements are a sentence representing speed of a situation, or better put a rate of change. This can be represented by the slope of a line on a graph or the speed of an objects's motion.
Equations such as the one above show relationships of Velocity, position, and time. They come in many forms and can be tailored to find any data missing.
Dyanmics Scientific process
Equations
Equations for balanced objects always add up to 0 in the X and Y directions. These represent how balanced forces when added up =0 b/c change in velocity is 0. when you have vectors at angles you can you SOH CAH TOA to find the seperate X and Y values of the forces. In unbalanced forces these add up to something that is either < or > 0 making them never = to 0. this means that the change in velocity is not 0.
Schemas
Schemas are a visual representation of objects and forces. Bubbles are objects and vectors are forces. If a vector is dotted it is a non-contact force.
Force diagrams
Force diagrams take the lines of schemas and simplifies it down to a single object so you can easily see what forces are acting on it.
