    Static Friction on an Incline

    The force of static friction must be equal to the component of gravity acting parallel to the incline to keep the block at rest.

    Work Done by Gravity on Horizontal Motion

    The work done by gravity on a mass moved horizontally is zero because the force of gravity is perpendicular to the direction of motion.

    Potential Energy of a Spring

    Potential energy is the energy stored by an object by virtue of its position relative to a reference point. For conservative forces, like the force due to a spring, the potential energy at a point is the negative of the work done by the force to move an object from the reference point to that point.

    Power

    Power is the rate at which energy is transferred or transformed. It is calculated as the work done divided by the time taken to do that work.

    Conservation of Momentum

    In a system with no external forces acting upon it, the total momentum remains constant. This means the total momentum before a collision equals the total momentum after the collision.

    Kinetic Energy Lost in a Collision

    The kinetic energy lost in a collision is equal to the initial kinetic energy minus the final kinetic energy of the system.

    Kinetic Energy of a Rolling Object

    When an object rolls without slipping, its kinetic energy is the sum of translational kinetic energy (due to the motion of the center of mass) and rotational kinetic energy (due to the rotation of the object).

    Moment of Inertia

    The moment of inertia of a rotating object is a measure of its resistance to changes in its angular velocity. It depends on the mass distribution of the object.

    Torque

    Torque is the turning effect of a force about an axis of rotation. It is calculated as the cross product of the force vector and the position vector from the axis of rotation to the point where the force is applied.

    Angular Momentum

    Angular momentum is a measure of the amount of rotational motion an object possesses. It is calculated as the product of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity.

    Conservation of Angular Momentum

    When a system experiences changes in only internal forces, its total angular momentum remains constant. This means that the angular momentum before an event is equal to the angular momentum after the event.

    Conservation of Mechanical Energy

    When no external force acts on a system, its total mechanical energy (sum of kinetic and potential energy) remains constant. This means that the total energy before an event is equal to the total energy after the event.
