Study Notes
Mass Comparison of Cars
- The mass of car A can be equal, less, or greater than the mass of car B, and the determination of these comparisons is context-dependent.
Curved Motion of a Car
- In a banked curve, increasing the angle θ affects the components of forces acting on the car.
- The vertical component of the car's weight increases with the angle increase.
- The horizontal reaction force also increases, impacting handling and stability.
Kinetic Energy Calculation
- Kinetic energy (KE) for a body with a mass of 10 kg can be represented with potential energy values given specific velocities.
Potential Energy Ratio
- The potential energy (P.E) of two bodies relates to their heights:
- The weights ratio can be determined if specific height values and body placements are taken into account.
Work Done by a Child's Weight
- The work done by a child's weight while skating a distance of 20 m can be analyzed in terms of potential and kinetic energy dynamics.
Mechanical Energy During Free Fall
- A body with an initial potential energy of 200 J will have its mechanical energy at midpoint calculated based on the conservation of energy principle during free fall.
Ball on Smooth Curve
- A ball slides from a height, and its speed at a lower point can be used to calculate the height above ground using energy conservation principles (g = 10 m/s²).
Momentum and Velocity Relationship
- The relationship between momentum (P) and velocity (v) is critical when analyzing two moving cars A and B.
- If identical bodies have a ratio of periodic times, this will affect the ratio of centripetal forces acting on them.
Orbital Periodic Time of Satellites
- The ratio of orbital radii between two satellites (3:2) can be used to calculate their respective periodic times when one is known.
Height Weight Relation
- A calculated height where the weight of a body becomes a quarter of its surface weight on Earth involves understanding gravitational effects with respect to Earth's radius (R).
Momentum During Free Fall
- An object of mass 0.5 kg falling from a height of 180 cm will have its momentum determined upon reaching the ground using gravitation formulas.
Work Done on a Body
- The work done on a body under the influence of a force is analyzed through various force application cases; recognizing which case produces the most work is essential for energy calculations.
