Q

Momentum can be applied in real life like?

19
Q

This is the amount of force applied in certain amount of time to cause a change in momentum

20
Q

What is the symbol for impulse?

A

Big letter “I”

21
Q

What is the unit for impulse?

22
Q

What is the real life application of impulse?

A

Seat belt
Airbag

23
Q

In a collision, an object experiences a force for a specific amount of time that results on a change in momentum. The results of the force action for the given amount of time is that the object’s mass either speeds up or slows down (or changes direction).

A

Impulse-momentum theorem

24
Q

a substance that continually deforms (flow) under an applied shear stress or external force.

25
Is concerned with the motion of the bodies under the action of forces including special case when the body remains at rest.
Mechanics
26
it is the field in physics that studies the motion and properties of static fluids.
Fluid mechanics
27
A material defined as the ratio of its mass(m) and volume(v).
Density
28
What is the unit for density?
kg/m^3 (m/V)
29
A substance is defined as the ratio of the density of the substance and the density of water at 4 degrees celsius.
Specific Gravity (SG)
30
SG dont have a
unit
31
Formula for SG is?
psub/pwater (Density of substance / density of water [1g/ml or 1/cm^3)
32
This is known for as the amount of force applied per unit area
Pressure
33
What is the unit for pressure?
N/m^2 or Pa
34
"If an external pressure is applies to a confined fluid, the pressure at every point within the fluid increases by the same amount"
Pascal's Principle
35
What are the types of flow?
Laminar and turbulent flow
36
It's a smooth flow?
Laminar flow
37
It is chaotic flow?
turbulent flow
38
When an object is completely is partially immersed in a fluid exert an upward (Buoyant) force on the object that is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
Buoyancy and Archimedes' Principle
39
In fluid dynamics, the continuity equation states that the rate at which mass enters a system is equal to the rate at which mass leaves the system; plus the accumulation of mass within the system.
Equation of Continuity
40
Increasing the lever arm will result to?
Increase of torque
41
The impulse-momentum relationship is direct result of?
Newton's second law
42
This is the study of fluids in motion?
Fluid dynamics
