What is a scalar quantity? | A quantity that only has a magnitude or size |
Give 3 examples of scalar quantities | Density, speed, mass , temperature, distance, energy |
What is a vector quantity? | A quantity that has both magnitude and an associated direction |
Give 3 examples of vector quantities | Displacement, force, weight, velocity, acceleration, momentum |
How do you work out speed? | Distance/ time |
How do you work out acceleration? | Change in velocity/ time taken |
When will an object accelerate? | When a resultant force acts on it |
What keeps the planet in orbit around the Sun? | Gravitational attraction provides a centripetal force that keeps planets in orbit |
What is Newtons first law of motion? | An object stays in the same state of motion unless a resultant force acts on it |
What happens if the forces acting on an object are balanced? | The resultant force will be zero |
What is Newtons second law of motion? | Resultant force = mass x acceleration |
What is inertial mass? | A measure of how difficult it is to change the velocity of an object |
What is Newtons third law of motion? | Every reaction has an equal or opposite reaction |
How do you work out weight? | Mass x gravitational field strength |
How do you work out force? | Change in momentum/ time taken |
How do you work out momentum? | Mass x velocity |
Work done is the same as... | Kinetic energy |
How do you work out kinetic energy? | 0.5 x mass x (velocity)squared |
How do you work out stopping distance? | Thinking distance + breaking distance |
What happens when a car breaks? | There is work done by the friction between the wheels and the breaks which reduces the kinetic energy of the vehicle |
