Study Notes
Uniformly Accelerated Motion
- Uniformly Accelerated Motion refers to the motion of an object with constant acceleration.
Projectile Motion
- A projectile has its maximum range when fired at an angle of 45°.
- The path of a projectile follows a parabolic curve.
Momentum
- Momentum is directly proportional to an object's mass and velocity.
- A large, fast-moving object has greater momentum than a smaller, slower object.
- Momentum can be calculated by multiplying an object's mass and velocity.
Impulse and Collisions
- Impulse refers to a fast-acting force or impact.
- The SI unit of impulse is kg m/s.
- A rebound refers to a special type of collision involving a direction change in addition to a speed change.
Energy
- The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.
- Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, directly proportional to the square of an object's speed.
- Potential energy increases with height, so the higher an object is from the ground, the greater its potential energy.
Motion
- Speed is a scalar quantity, defined as the rate of change of distance.
- Velocity is a vector quantity, defined as the rate of change of displacement.
- Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
Problems and Examples
- If an object's velocity is doubled, its momentum is quadrupled.
- If a 30.00 kg mass falls from a height of 4.00 m, its momentum just before it hits the ground is 265.63 kg m/s.
- The total momentum of two objects moving in opposite directions is the sum of their individual momenta.
Other
- Convection is the main process of heat transfer in an air-conditioning unit.
- In headphones, electrical energy is converted into sound energy.
- The angle of elevation of an object's velocity with the horizontal is 45° when its horizontal and vertical components are equal in magnitude.
