Physics Test #3
Question | Answer |
---|---|
The product of the mass of an object and its velocity or p=mv | Momentum |
Pascals Princple deals with | Pressure |
Pressure id defined as the ratio of force to area exerted on by a fulid | Pascals Princple |
pressure extends uniformly in all directions through a fluid which explains the operation of hydraulic systems | Pascals Princple |
P=f/a | pressure formula |
We can measure atmospheric pressure by | determining the height of a column of mercury supported by the atmosphere |
atmospheric pressure decreases with | increasing altitude |
The density of air changes with altitude because a lower pressure leads to a larger volume | Boyles Law |
In a fluid pressure increase with depth | producing a buyoant force on objects submerged in the fluid |
Force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object | Archimedes principle ex ice floating in water |
The rate of flow of a fluid is.. | equal to the speed times the cross sectional area. |
In continous flow the speed increases | if the area decreases |
Fluids with high viscosity have | a greater resistance to flow than those with low visocity. |
As the flow increases the flow may change from laminar (smooth) | to turbulent flow |
energy considerations require that the kinetic energy per unit mass of a fluid increase as the pressure decreases | Bernoullis Princple |
Can be used to explain the curve of a curveball | Bernoullis Princple |
Density | mass/volume |
Pressure | p=f/a |
Viscocity | the property of fluid that determines the strength of frictional forces between the layers of fluid |
The larger the viscocity | the larger the frictional force |
Rotational motion | rotational displacment is described by an angle 0 |
Rotational velocity | the rate of change of an angle with time w= 0/t |
Rotational acceleration | the rate of rotational velocity with time a=w/t |
Torque | what causes an object to rotate |
Torque | force times the lever arm of the force which is perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the axis of rotation |
if the net torque is zero | the object does not change its state of rotation. |
rotational interia depends on | the distribution of mass about an object |
angular momentum | the rotational interia times the roational velocity |
fulcurm | pivot point |
Center of gravity | the point about which the weight of the object itself exerts no net torque |
Conservation of momentum | the net force external force acting on a system is zero the total momentum of the system is a constant |
impulse | the average force acting on an object multipied |
Recoli (football player problem) | p1=-p2 |
