    Study Notes

    Fundamentals

    • Physical Quantities:
      • Distance (m)
      • Time (s)
      • Mass (kg)
      • Velocity (m/s)
      • Acceleration (m/s^2)
      • Force (N)
      • Energy (J)
      • Power (W)

    Kinematics

    • Motion:
      • Described by position, velocity, and acceleration
      • Types: translational, rotational, and oscillatory
    • Displacement and Distance:
      • Displacement: shortest distance between two points
      • Distance: total length of path traveled
    • Velocity and Acceleration:
      • Velocity: rate of change of displacement
      • Acceleration: rate of change of velocity

    Dynamics

    • Forces:
      • Types: external (gravity, friction, normal), internal (tension, air resistance)
      • Newton's First Law (Inertia): object at rest remains at rest, object in motion remains in motion
    • Newton's Second Law (F=ma):
      • Force (F) is proportional to mass (m) and acceleration (a)
    • Newton's Third Law (Action-Reaction):
      • Every action has an equal and opposite reaction

    Energy and Work

    • Energy:
      • Types: kinetic (motion), potential (stored), thermal (heat), electrical
      • Conservation of Energy: total energy remains constant
    • Work:
      • Done when force is applied over a distance
      • Unit: Joule (J)

    Thermodynamics

    • Temperature:
      • Measure of average kinetic energy of particles
      • Units: Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K)
    • Heat Transfer:
      • Types: conduction, convection, radiation
    • First Law of Thermodynamics:
      • Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted

    Electronics

    • Electric Charge:
      • Positive (proton) and negative (electron)
      • Unit: Coulomb (C)
    • Electric Current:
      • Flow of electric charge
      • Unit: Ampere (A)

      • Opposition to electric current
      • Unit: Ohm (Ω)

    Digital Systems

    • Binary Number System:
      • Base 2, using 0 and 1
      • Used in computer systems for representation and processing
    • Logic Gates:
      • Basic building blocks of digital circuits
      • Types: AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR
    • Circuits:
      • Combinations of logic gates and other components
      • Used to perform complex operations and functions

    Fundamentals

    • Physical quantities are used to describe the physical world
    • Seven fundamental physical quantities: distance (m), time (s), mass (kg), velocity (m/s), acceleration (m/s^2), force (N), energy (J), and power (W)

    Kinematics

    • Motion is described by position, velocity, and acceleration
    • There are three types of motion: translational, rotational, and oscillatory
    • Displacement is the shortest distance between two points, while distance is the total length of path traveled
    • Velocity is the rate of change of displacement, and acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

    Dynamics

    • Forces can be external (gravity, friction, normal) or internal (tension, air resistance)
    • Newton's First Law states that 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 states that force (F) is proportional to mass (m) and acceleration (a), or F = ma
    • Newton's Third Law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction

    Energy and Work

    • Energy comes in four types: kinetic (motion), potential (stored), thermal (heat), and electrical
    • The total energy of a closed system remains constant, as stated by the Law of Conservation of Energy
    • Work is done when a force is applied over a distance, and is measured in Joules (J)

    Thermodynamics

    • Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles, and is measured in Celsius (°C) or Kelvin (K)
    • Heat transfer occurs through conduction, convection, and radiation
    • The First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted

    Electronics

    • Electric charge comes in two types: positive (proton) and negative (electron), and is measured in Coulombs (C)
    • Electric current is the flow of electric charge, and is measured in Amperes (A)
    • Voltage is the potential difference between two points, and is measured in Volts (V)
    • Resistance is the opposition to electric current, and is measured in Ohms (Ω)

    Digital Systems

    • The binary number system uses base 2, with 0 and 1, and is used in computer systems for representation and processing
    • Logic gates are the basic building blocks of digital circuits, and come in five types: AND, OR, NOT, NAND, and XOR
    • Circuits combine logic gates and other components to perform complex operations and functions
