25
energy of motion
kinetic energy
26
1/2 mass x speed x speed =
kinetic energy
27
net force x distance =
kinetic energy
28
work = change in ____
kinetic energy
29
Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it may be transformed from on form into another, but the total amount of energy never changes
Law of Conservation of Energy
30
device for multiplying forces or changing the direction of forces. They work on the principle of conservation of energy
machine
31
one of the simplest machines
lever
32
if the little work done by friction is small enough to neglect, then the work input will equal work output
(Fd)input = (Fd)output
33
point of support on which the lever rotates
fulcrum
34
when the fulcrum is close to a load,
a small input force will produce a large output force
35
useful energy output/total energy input
efficiency
36
linear speed of something moving along a circular path
tangential speed
37
____ ____ is directly proportional to the distance from the axis for any given rotational speed
tangential sped
38
units of tangential speed
m/s or km/h
39
Rotational rates
RPM revolutions per minute
40
When tangential speed undergoes a change
tangential acceleration
41
the property of an object to resist changes in its rotational state of motion
rotational inertia
42
rotational inertia depends on ____ about axis of rotation
mass
43
the rotational counterpart of force
torque
44
if you want to make a stationary object rotate apply ___
torque
45
lever arm x force =
torque
46
the average position of all the mass that makes up the object
center of mass
47
used to express center of mass. It is the average position of weight distribution
center of gravity
48
ideal way to increase stability
wide BOS and lower COG
49
rotational inertia x rotational velocity
