Q

Give an example of a frictional force that causes temperature of the object to increase

A

When you push something along a rough surface for example of carpet

23
Q

What is the equation for how much work has been done

A

W= Force x distance(in metres)

24
Q

A fourth of 20N pushes an object 20cm work out the work done on the object

25
What three things can transfer energy
Bending, compressing, stretching
26
What is it called when objects can go back to its original shape after a force has been removed
Elastically deformed
27
Give an example of an elastically deformed object
A spring
28
What is the equation to work on what a force is
Force = Spring constant(in metres) x extension(in metres)
29
The spring is fixed at one end, and a force of 1 Newton is applied to the other end, causing it to stretch. The spring extends by 2 cm calculate the spring constant of the spring
1 N divided by 0.02 m = 50 N/m
30
What happens on a graph when the relationship is nonlinear
The straight line begins to bend
31
Explain the required practical to investigate the link between force and extension
Measure the mass of each mass, calculate it away, measured the original length of the spring, Adam asked for the sprint and allow it to come to rest, record the force and measure the new length of the spring, repeat until you’ve added all the masses and then plot of force extension graph of your results
32
What is the equation for how to find the extension
New length - original length
33
How do you calculate distance
Distance in metres= speed in m/s x Time in seconds
34
Sprinter runs 200 m in 25 seconds calculate the speed
200 m divided by 25 seconds = 8 m/s
35
What is acceleration
The change in velocity in a certain amount of time
36
How can you find the acceleration
Acceleration (metres) = change in velocity metres per second divided by time taken in seconds
37
The steeper The distance on a graph means the
The faster it’s going
38
What does a straight uphill section mean on a graph
Steady pace it is travelling at
39
The flat section on a graph is at stationary please which means
It’s stopped
40
What does a curve represent on a graph
Going up it means acceleration going down it means deceleration
41
How do you calculate the gradient on a graph
Choose two points and the change in the vertical axis divided by the change in the horizontal axis
42
What is newtons in second law
The force acting on an object and the acceleration of the object are directly proportional
43
What is Newton‘s third law
When two objects interact the forces they exert on each other are equal and opposite
44
What will happen to skater A when she pushes on skate B
She feels an equal and opposite forth from skate of his hand, both skaters feel the same sized force in opposite directions so then they accelerate from each other
45
The practical to investigate how mass and force affect acceleration
Mark a starting line on the table the trolley is on, this is so that the trolley always travels the same distance to the light gate, place the trolley on the starting line, hold the trolley so the string is tight and not touching the table, and release it, and record the acceleration measured by the light gate as the trolley passes through
46
In the experiment above what force is accelerating the trolley
The hook with the masses on it
47
How do you calculate stopping distance
Stopping distance = thinking distance+ Breaking distance
48
What is thinking distance
How far the vehicle travels during the drive as reaction time
49
What is breaking distance
Distance taken to stop under the braking force
50
What factors affect thinking distance
Drugs, alcohol, eyesight, phones
51
What factors affect stopping distance
Rain, roads surfaces, tires, brakes
52
What does inelastically deformed mean
When a spring will not go back to its original length when the force is removed
53
The greater the speed the greater the
Breaking distance
54
explain how you can measure reaction time with the ruler drop test
A partner drops a ruler unexpectedly between your finger and thumb As soon as you see it move you catch it and use the scale to see how far it falls
