Mechanics Quiz: Kinematics and Dynamics

Energy: ability to do work
Work (W): transfer of energy from one object to another
Key concepts:
- Kinetic Energy (KE): energy of motion
- Potential Energy (PE): energy of position or configuration
- Conservation of Energy: total energy remains constant in a closed system
- Work-Energy Theorem: net work done on an object equals its change in kinetic energy

Momentum (p): product of an object's mass and velocity
Key concepts:
- Linear Momentum: momentum in a straight line
- Conservation of Momentum: total momentum remains constant in a closed system
- Collisions: transfer of momentum between objects

Rotational Kinematics:
- Angular Displacement (θ): change in angle
- Angular Velocity (ω): rate of change of angular displacement
- Angular Acceleration (α): rate of change of angular velocity
Rotational Dynamics:
- Torque (τ): rotational force
- Rotational Kinetic Energy (KE_rot): energy of rotational motion
- Rotational Inertia (I): resistance to changes in rotational motion

Motion described in terms of position, velocity, and acceleration
Displacement (Δx): change in position, a vector quantity
Velocity (v): rate of change of displacement, a vector quantity, measured in m/s
Acceleration (a): rate of change of velocity, a vector quantity, measured in m/s²
Distance (d): total length of motion, a scalar quantity, measured in meters
Speed (s): magnitude of velocity, a scalar quantity, measured in m/s
Time (t): duration of motion, a scalar quantity, measured in seconds

Motion described in terms of forces and their effects
Force (F): push or pull that causes motion, a vector quantity, measured in Newtons (N)
Newton's First Law (Inertia): an object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion, unless acted upon by an external force
Newton's Second Law (Force and Acceleration): F = ma, force equals mass times acceleration
Newton's Third Law (Action and Reaction): every action has an equal and opposite reaction, forces always come in pairs
