Physics Notes - Chapter 1- Chapter 6
Force
-Measured In Newton[n]
-Can Cause The Object To Move,Change Speed Or Direction.[Newton 1st Law]
Balance Forces
When The Forces Is Balanced There is No Resultant Force
-If It is not moving it will stay at rest
-if it is moving it will continue to move at constant speed.
Unbalanced Force
It Will Cause
a)A Stationary Object To Move
b)A Moving Object to
-Stop Moving
-Change Direction
-Move Faster
-Slow Down
[Newton 2nd Law]
-Force=Mass X Acceleration
Free-body Diagram
Newton Third Law Says:
For Every Action There Is Another Equal Opposite Reaction
Friction
Friction Is Good As It Make Things Able To Move
But Friction Is Bad Because It Wear And Tear Thing
Reduce Friction By:
-Adding lubricant
-Adding Ball And Roller Bearing etc
Mass
-Mass(kg) is a measure of the amount of substance in the object
-Weight(N) is the force of gravity acting upon that object
Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity
W = mg
On Earth, acceleration of free fall
g = 10 m s−2
Mass measured by beam balance and electronic balance.
Weight is measured by spring balance.
Inertia and Mass
-Inertia of an object is the reluctance of the object to change either its state or rest, or if it is moving, its motion in a straight line.
-Newton’s first law of motion states that a body continues in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled by a force to do otherwise
Density.
SI Unit=Kg m-3
Moments
Moment=Force X Distance
Pivot is the turning poing also known as fulcrum.
Principle Of Moment
If The Object On The Right Is The Same As The Left,
-The Anticlockwise moment= Clockwise Moment
Center Of Gravity
-IS A Point Where The Weight In The Object Seems To Act On
It Might Not Be In The Center.
-If The Mass In An Object Is Heavier at The Top,The Center Of Gravity Is Higher.
-If The Mass In An Object Is Heavier at The Bottom,The Center Of Gravity Is Lower.
-For Uniformed Object,The Center Of Gravity Is In The Center.
Stability
There is 3 Kind Of Stability
There Are Two Ways To Make Something More Stable.
-Increase The Aase Area
-Lower The Center of Gravity By Adding Something Heavy To The Bottom.
Pressure[Not Needed For NA]
-Is The Amount Of Force That Is Acting On A Unit Area Of The Object.
Pressure=Force/Area
SI Unit Pascals[Pa] Or Nm-2
Pressure Due To A Liquid Column=Height X Density X Gravity
