17
Q

Moment

A

A turning force that is measured in Newtons that with distance measured in meters

18
Q

How to increase a moment

A

increase the force applied to increase the distance from the pivot

19
Q

Moment equation

A

Moment (Nm) = Force (N) X Distance (M)

20
Q

Measurement that moments

A

Nm (Newton meters)

21
Q

Lever purpose

A

Levers are force multipliers that reduce the force needed to perform tasks

22
Q

law of moments

A

When an objects is not turning around a pivot, the total clock-wise moment must be exactly balanced by the total anti-clockwise moment

23
Q

When opposing moments are balanced

A

Sum of clockwise moments = sum of anti-clockwise moments = equilibrium

24
Q

Equation for two moments

A

F1 X D1 = F2 X D2

25
Pressure measurement
a measure of how much force is applied over a certain area
26
What direction does pressure act
90˚ to the surface
27
Pressure equation
Pressure (N/M2) = Force (N) ÷ Area (M2)
28
Pressure def
pressure is force of moving particles colliding with a barrier, particles both collide internally and externally
29
Solid particle arrangement
All atoms are the same size, regular arrangement, compact, particles vibrate around a fixed point
30
Liquid particle arrangement
Atoms are the same size, irregular arrangement, liquid can flow, particles can flow over each other, not fixed
31
Gas particle arrangement
Particles are spread out and fill any volume of a container
32
Relationship with pressure and altitude
The lower the altitude, the more pressure since more layers of particles are pushing down
33
How is pressure caused
Collisions of particles
34
2 factors that effect pressure
quantity and temperature
35
relationship with the 2 factors and pressure
the more the quantity of particles or the higher the temperature the higher the pressure
36
Mass
how much matter something has
37
Volume
How much space something takes up
38
Density
The amount of particles/atoms in a certain volume of confined space
39
Millimetres
On tenth of a centimeter
40
Density equation
Density (Kg/M3) = Mass (Kg) ÷ Volume (M3)
