Velocity
Acceleration
X and Y components of initial velocity
v
y
= v
o
cosθ
v
x
= v
o
sinθ
Resultant force
Gravitational force
Torque
r = distance between fulcrum and force
θ = angle between force and lever arm
Centripetal force
Centripetal acceleration
Kinetic friction
μ
k
= coefficient of kinetic friction
F
n
= normal force
static friction
anything above that is kinetic friction
Potential energy
Total mechanical energy
= constant
When there's no friction/air resistance
Work done by non conservative forces
Work
W = Fdcosθ
Power
J/s = watts
Work Energy theorem
Momentum
units: kg m/s
Impulse
Elastic collisions - objects dont stick
objects dont stick. Momentum and KE are conserved.
Inelastic collisions
Kinetic energy is lost in the form of heat, light or sound therefore final KE is less that initial.
Momentum is conserved
Completely Inelastic collisions
Objects stick together
Kinetic energy is not conserved.
Momentum is conserved, objects have the same velocity after combining.
