Universal Gravity, Uniform Circular Motion, Work Power & Energy
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| UCM uniform circular motion | has a constant speed and a changing direction |
| in a straight line, tangent to the circle | where an object goes if the centripetal force is removed |
| larger | a point further from the center of a rotating object will have a ____ tangential velocity |
| smaller | as an object moves further from the center of the earth, it's gravitational force will be ___ |
| twice | An object with twice the mass will have ___ the gravitational force |
| quadruple | Two objects moved closer so their distance is half will have ___ the gravitational force |
| open | A system where matter can eneter and leave |
| quadruple | with twice the speed, an object's KE will ___ |
| be cut in half | with half the height, an object's PE will ___ |
| mgh | PE = |
| 1/2 mv² | KE = |
| change in kinetic energy | the work done by a net force to accelerate an object is equal to the |
| gravitational potential energy | work done to lift an object is stored as |
| kinetic energy | as an object falls, its potential energy is converted into |
| mechanical energy | in a closed to energy system, this always stays the same |
