QuestionAnswer
Why are standard unit of measurement important to scientists
Units of measurement are the terms that we use to describe the size of something
What are the SI unit that is used to measure mass length time and temperature Seconds kilograms meters and Kelvin
If you ride your bicycle down a straight road for 500 M then turn around and ride back your distance is blank your displacement Greater than
What is the device used to measure speed Speedometer
The relationship among speed distance and time is V equals D / t
A merry-go-round horse moves at a constant speed but changing
Velocity
Acceleration is a rate of change of Velocity A equals V / t
A real car moving at 10 kilometers an hour has more momentum than a toy car moving at the same speed because a real car More mass
In a graph showing temperature change of a material over time temperature change is the Dependent variable
In the absence of an external force a moving object will Move at a constant velocity
If you compare two objects with different masses which of the following must also be different Weight
A student pushes a block so that it slides to the right what is the net force on it if the friction force is 3n and the applied force is a 5n 2N
This quarterback just threw the football for a long pass name the forces acting on the ball as it moves through the air Constant downward Force
A box sits at rest on a desk in the classroom what is the reaction force in the sense of Newton's third law to the weight of the box The boxes upward pool on the Earth
The picture to the right shows two forces acting on a box which steps should you do first to figure out the net force Use angle sin or cosine to find the components of 8n force
When you sit on the chair the resultant Force on you is 0
You are standing in a moving bus facing forward and you suddenly fall forward as a bus comes to an immediate stop what force causes you to move forward Force due to friction between you and the floor of the bus
The acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to Mass
An object of mass m sits on a flat table the Earth pull on this object with Force mg which we will call the action force what is the reaction force The object pulling upward on the earth with mg
A golf club hits a golf ball with a force of 2400n and the golf ball hits the club with a force of Equal force 2400n
An example of a force which acts at a distance is Weight gravity static electricity
What is the mass of a person who weighs 110
55 kg
Solar energy is converted by plant in a process of photosynthesis into Oxygen or chemical potential energy
SI unit for work done is J or Joule
Energy is The ability to do work
A bus travels with a constant force of 5000 n and work done by bus is 2500 J how much is the distance traveled by the bus Divide work done by force and you get 0.5m
Power is defined as The rate of energy transfer P equals W / t
An object of mass m raised to a height 2H above ground level possesses a gravitational potential energy of 2 MGH
A pendulum Bob moves at a speed of 2 m s and mass of 0.5 kg its kinetic energy would be 11
Knocking a nail into a wooden block with a hammer involves conversion between different forms of energy write the correct order of forms of energy in this conversion Chemical energy gravitational potential energy kinetic energy
Wind and waves are used by turbines to convert Sound energy plus heat energy to kinetic energy to electrical energy
A ball of unknown mass is thrown Upward at a speed of 10 meters per second calculate maximum height reached by the ball if acceleration due to gravity is assumed to be 10 meters per second squared 5 m
What form of energy is stored in the food we eat Potential energy and chemical energy
When a pendulum Bob is this place to one side it gains Gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy
A constant force on an object given by a product of force and distance move by object in direction of force is termed as Work done
A car stopped switching to avoid a crash with a van what change is involved in kinetic energy Kinetic energy is converted into sound and thermal energy
Formula for kinetic energy is K equals 1/2 x MV
When Direction of applied force and direction in which objects move are perpendicular to each other what happened with work done No work is done
GPS that tracks location is an abbreviation of Global positioning system
Product of velocity and mass is called Momentum
Name the wave that the direction of its wave is parallel to the distance of the vibration Longitudinal
Electromagnetic waves Carry A negative charge and also energy
Law stating that force is directly proportional to product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of separation between them is called Coulomb's law
Formula that describes statement of Coulomb's law is F equals k equals Q 1 x Q 2 / D Squared
When a person comes over here static electricity is sometimes generated by what process The comb and hair transferred electrons or by induction
Which of the following is not an electrical classification of materials Semi insulators which sometimes conduct and sometimes insulate
What type of forces act on a falling object Gravity and air resistance
The universal law of gravitation was produced by Newton
It is easier to roll a barrel then to pull it because Rolling friction is much less than sliding friction
Define Ohm's law The potential difference voltage across an ideal conductor is proportional to the current through it the constant of proportionality is called the resistance or Ohm's law is given by V equals I times r
What is the difference between series and parallel circuits A series circuit has one path the currents are anywhere in the circuit the voltage is shared in a ratio to resistance resistance adds up. The brightness is less because P equals I times V. In a parallel circuit there are two or more pathways. Current adds
