Study Notes
Forces in Motion
- Newton's Third Law of Motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
- Force Diagrams: are visual representations of forces acting on an object, often using arrows to indicate direction and magnitude.
- Tug-of-War: In a tug-of-war, the net force is the difference between the forces exerted by the opposing teams. The rope will move in direction of the greater force.
- Jumping on a Trampoline: When a child jumps on a trampoline, the upward force from the trampoline exceeds the downward force of gravity, resulting in an upward net force which launches the child upwards.
- Rocket Launch: During a rocket launch, the upward force from the engines must be greater than the downward force of gravity in order for the rocket to lift off.
- Potential Energy: The higher an object is, the greater its potential energy.
- Elastic Potential Energy: Stored energy in a stretched or compressed object.
- Kinetic Energy: The energy of motion; an object in motion has kinetic energy.
- Conversion of Energy: Potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy, and vice-versa. For example, as a ball falls from a height, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
