QuestionAnswer
In the absence of external work input or output, the energy of a system remains unnchanged. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. Conservation of energy
The work output of any machine cannot exceed the work input. In an ideal machine, where no energy is transformed into heat, work input = work output and (Fd)input=(Fd)output Conservation of energy and machines
In the absence of an external force, the momentum of a system remains unchanged. Hense, the momentum before an event involving only internal forces is equal to the momentum after the event: mv(before envent)=mv(after envent) Conservation of momentum
The percentage of the work put into a machine that is converted into useful work output. (It is useful energy output divided by total energy input) Efficiency
A collision in which colliding objects rebound without lasting deformation or the gereration of heat. Elastic Collision
The property of a system that enables it to do work Energy
The product of the force acting on an object and the time during which it acts. Impulse
A collision in which the colliding objects become distorted, gererate heat, and possibly stick together. Inelastic collision
The SI unit of energy and work, equivalent to a newton-meter Joule
Energy of motion, descrived by the relationship... ____________=1/2mv^2 Kinetic Energy
The product of the mass of an object and its velocity Momentum
The stored energy that a body possesses because of its position Potential energy
The time rate of work:__________=work/time (the rate at which energy is expended) Power
Impulse is equal to the change in the momentum of the object upon which the impulse acts. Ft=(triangle)mv Relationship of impulse and momentum
The product of the force and the distance through which the force moves: _____=Fd Work
The work done on an object equals the change in kinetic energy of the object: Work=(triangle)KE Work-Energy Theorem
Any force that is directed at right angles to the path of a moving object and that tends to produce circular motion. Centripetal force
The attractive force between objects due to mass
Law relating the intensity of an effect to the inverse square of the distance from the cause: Intensity~ 1/distance^2 Inverse-square law
Every body in the universe attracts every other body with a mutually attracting force. For two bodies, this force is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distamce sep. them Law of universal gravitation
The curved path followed by a projectile near the Earth under the influence of gravity only. Parabola
Any object that moves through the air or through space under the influence of gravity Projectile
Velocity that is parallel to a curved path Tangential velocity
The proportionality constant in Newton's law of gravitation Universal constant of gravitation, G
A condition encountered in free fall wherein a support force is lacking Weightlessness

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
