  16. SOH-CAH-TOA
    • Sin is Opposite over Hypotenuse
    • Cos is Adjacent over Hypotenuse
    • Tangent is Opposite over Adjacent
  17. Kinematics is...
    a branch of Newtonian mechanics that deals with the description of motion.
  18. Give an example of a Kinematics problem describing motion in only one dimension
    Dropping objects problem
  19. Give an example of a Kinematics problem describing motion in two dimensions
    Projectile motion problem
  20. Define displacement.
    Is it a scalar or vector quantity?
    SI units
    an object in motion experiencing a change in its position in space undergoes displacement.

    It's a vector quantity, connecting in a straight line the objects initial and final positions.

    m
  21. Define velocity.
    Scalar or vector?
    SI units
    Rate of change of displacement in a given unit of time.

    Vector.

    m/s
  22. Define speed.
    Scalar or vector?
    SI units
    • Rate of actual distance traveled in a given unit of time.
    • Scalar.
    • m/s
  23. Define acceleration.
    Scalar or vector?
    SI units
    • Rate of change of velocity over time.
    • A~ results from application of force(s).
    • Vector
    • m/(s^2)
  24. Newton's 2nd Law
    F=ma
  25. On MCAT when you see Force, think
    • Acceleration
    • And when you see Acceleration, think Force.
    • MCAT limits kinematics problems to those involving motion with constant acceleration.
  26. Define and name examples of linear motion problems.

    What are directions of v and a in linear motion?
    Motion along a line.

    Along a line (both v and a)

    • Examples:
    • (1) motion along a vertical path
    • (2) motion along a horizontal path
    • (3) motion along an inclined surface or ramp

    Δx=1/2*(v0+v)*t = v(bar)*t

    v(bar) = 1/2*(v0+v)
  28. Projectile motion is...
    Give an example.
    ...motion that follows a path along two dimensions.

    Two dimensions (usually horizontal and vertical) are independent of each other and must be analyzed separately.

    E.g.: cannonballs (pushka, zarbazani), baseballs, bullets...
