A car is moving at a constant velocity. What can be concluded about the forces acting on the car?

  • The forces acting on the car are balanced. (correct)
  • The car is only experiencing gravitational force.

Flashcards

Net force when forces are balanced?

The net force is zero when equal forces act in opposite directions.

Acceleration occurs when?

An object accelerates when the forces acting on it are unbalanced.

When is work done?

Work is done only when a force causes displacement of an object.

SI Unit of Work

The SI unit of work is the Joule (J).

Study Notes

Forces and Motion

  • When two 10N forces act on an object in opposite directions, the net force is 0N.
  • An object accelerates when forces acting upon it are unbalanced.
  • Work is done only when a force causes displacement of an object.
  • The SI unit of work is the Joule.
  • Potential energy is dependent on both height and mass.
  • A ball rolling down a hill converts potential energy into kinetic energy.
  • Violet is the visible color with the most energy.
