Distance
Distance is defined as the total path traveled by an object from one point to the other.
Displacement
Displacement is defined as the shortest distance between two point in a specific direction.
Speed
Deceleration is the rate of decrease of velocity or how fast a velocity of a moving object decreases.
2.3 Inertia
Inertia
Inertia is the tendency of an object resist to change its motion state. An object at rest will tend to remain at rest, or if moving will tend to continue its motion in a straight line.
2.4 Momentum
Momentum
The momentum of an object is the product of the mass and the velocity of the object.
Law of Conservation Of Momentum
In a reaction between objects (collision or explosion), the total momentum before the reaction is equal to the total momentum after the reaction, provided that no external force acts on the system.
Elastic Collision
Elastic collision is the collision where the kinetic energy is conserved after the collision.
Inelastic Collision
Inelastic collision is the collision where the kinetic energy is not conserved after the collision.
In the absence of external forces, an object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion continues in motion with a constant velocity (that is, with a constant speed in a straight line).
Newtons Second Law
The rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the resultant force acting on the body and is in the same direction.
Newtons Third Law
Newton's third law of motion states that for every force, there is a reaction force with the same magnitude but in
Friction is a force opposing motion. How the crumble zone of a car can reduce injuries to passenger?
Friction Compensated Runway
A friction compensated run way is a runway which the friction of an object placed on it is balanced by the weight of the object itself.
Impulsive force is a force which acts on an object for a very short interval during a collision or explosion. It is equals to the change in momentum per unit time.
The crumple zone increases the time of collision. This causes the impulsive force to be small. The smaller the impulsive force, the smaller the injuries
Seat Belt
Prevent the driver and passengers from being flung forward or thrown out of the car during an emergency break.
Airbag
The inflated airbag during an accident acts as a cushion to lessen the impact when the driver flings forward hitting the steering wheel or dashboard.
Head Rest
Reduce neck injury when driver and passengers are thrown backwards when the car is banged from backward.
2.8 Gravity
Mass
Forces acting on an object are in equilibrium if the net force acting on the object is zero.
Work done by a constant force is given by the product of the force and the distance moved in the direction of the force.
Energy
2.11 Eleasticity
Spring Constant
Spring/force constant is the force required to extend the spring by one unit of extension.
Hookes Law
Hooke's law states that the extension of a spring is directly proportional to the applied force provided the elastic limit is not exceeded.
