Newtons 1st Law of Motion- In the absence of external forces, an object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion continues in motion with a constant Velocity (that is, with a constant speed in a straight line); Balanced and Unbalanced Forces Newtons 2nd Law- The rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the resultant force acting on the body and is in the same direction. F (mf- mi)/t; F=ma; LAW OF ACCELERATION Newtons 3rd Law- for every action theres an equal and opposite reaction. Inertia- resistance of any physical object to a change in its state of motion. Equilibrium- the condition of a system in which competing influences is balanced. Forces- push or pull upon an object; o Contact Forces-frictional, tension, normal, air resistance, applied, spring FORCES o Action-at-a-Distance Forces- magnetic, gravitational, electrical Forces Forces in equilibrium o E.G.

Linear momentum is a vector quantity, since it has a direction as well as a magnitude. Angular momentum is a pseudovector quantity because it gains an additional sign flips under an improper rotation. The total momentum of any group of objects remains the same unless outside forces act on the objects (law of conservation of momentum); p=mv Impulse- the integral of a force with respect to time. When a force is applied to a rigid body it changes the momentum of that body. A small force applied for a long time can produce the same momentum change as a large force applied briefly, because it is the product of the force and the time for which it is applied that is important. The impulse is equal to the change of momentum. I=Ft=mv=p Collision- an isolated event in which two or more moving bodies (colliding bodies) exert relatively strong forces on each other for a relatively short time. o Elastic Collision- KE and P are conserved o Inelastic Collision- KE is not conserved Law of Conservation of Momentum- the total momentum of a closed system of objects (which has no interactions with external agents) is constant. One of the consequences of this is that the centre of mass of any system of objects will always continue with the same velocity unless acted on by a force from outside the system. o u= velocities before collision v= velocities after collision Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)- the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator, a periodic motion that is neither driven nor damped. A body in simple harmonic motion experiences a single force which is given by Hooke's law; that is, the force is directly proportional to the displacement x and points in the opposite direction. o angular frequency= 2f o ffrequency=(1/2) k/m o Tperiod=1/f=2 m/k Enegry in SHM(E); K.E.= (1/2)mv2

Resultant Force or Net Force(F)a Vector produced when two or more forces acting upon a single object; the overall force acting on an object; single force that will replace the given force system. R or Fnet= Fx+ Fy; =tan-1 (Fy/ Fx) Moment or Torque- is the tendency of a force to rotate an object about an axis, fulcrum, or piVot. Just as a force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a twist. M=F.d[(Force)(Perpendicular Distance)] Centripetal Force(Fc)- a force that makes a body follow a curved path: it is always directed orthogonal to the Velocity of the body, toward the instantaneous centre of the path. Centrifugal Force- represents the effects of inertia that arise in connection with rotation and which are experienced as an outward force away from the centre of rotation. Centre of Gravity(Mass)-m=mass o x'=my/m; y= mx/m Uniform Circular Motion (UCM)- moves with a constant speed but has a changing velocity because of the continuing change in direction. o ac(centripetal acceleration)=v2/r; tangential or orbital speed2/radius of the circular orbit o Fc(centripetal force)=m ac=mv2/r

Fluid Dynamics- study of fluids in motion. Ideal Fluid-fluid that is incompressible Buoyant Force- upward force exerted by the fluid. Surface Tension- It is what causes the surface portion of liquid to be attracted to another surface. Viscosity- measure of the resistance of a fluid which is being deformed by either shear stress or tensile stress. In everyday terms (and for fluids only), viscosity is "thickness". Thus, water is "thin", having a lower viscosity, while honey is "thick", having a higher viscosity. Viscosity describes a fluid's internal resistance to flow and may be thought of as a measure of fluid friction; internal friction. Turbulence- no steady state pattern; the flow patter changes continuously. Laminar Flow- adjacent layers of fluid slide smoothly pass each other and the flow is steady.

Types of Waves o Mechanical Waves- waves that need medium of transmission but the particles of the medium DO NOT move from one region to another. Transverse- a moving wave that consists of oscillations occurring perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer. Longitudinal- waves that have the same direction of oscillation or vibration along their direction of travel, which means that the oscillation of the medium (particle) is in the same direction or opposite direction as the motion of the wave. Mechanical longitudinal waves have been also referred to as compressional waves or compression waves. o Electromagnetic Waves- wave that do not need medium of transmission Light, visible light, x-ray, UV Light, infrared, microwaves, radio and tv waves. Properties of Waves o Reflection o Refraction- bending of waves through barriers; waves that have the same direction of oscillation or vibration along their direction of travel, which means that the oscillation of the medium (particle) is in the same direction or opposite direction as the motion of the wave. Mechanical longitudinal waves have been also referred to as compressional waves or compression waves. o Diffraction- a wave encounters an obstacle. It is described as the apparent bending of waves around small obstacles and the spreading out of waves past small openings. o Interference- the addition (superposition) of two or more waves that results in a new

wave pattern. Interference usually refers to the interaction of waves that are correlated or coherent with each other, either because they come from the same source or because they have the same or nearly the same frequency. Constructive Interference Destructive Interference Characteristics of Waves o Wavelength, - determined by considering the distance between consecutive corresponding points of the same phase, such as crests, troughs, or zero crossings, and is a characteristic of both traveling waves and standing waves, as well as other spatial wave patterns =/ f; =speed o Frequency, f- no. of cycles f=1/T= / ; Hz=Hertz o Period, T= 1/f Doppler Effect- is the change in frequency of a wave for an observer moving relative to the source of the wave. o f=[( + r)/( + s)]fo:Both source and receiver are moving. f= observed frequency fo=emitted frequency. = velocity of the medium r= the velocity of the receiver relative to the medium; positive if the receiver is moving towards the source. s= the velocity of the source relative to the medium; positive if the source is moving away from the receiver. o If the source moving away from the observer is emitting waves through a medium with an actual frequency f0, then an observer stationary relative to the medium detects waves with a frequency f given by the equation with r=0 o A similar analysis for a moving observer and a stationary source yields the observed frequency then s=0. Infrasound- sound that is lower in frequency than 20 Hz (Hertz) or cycles per second, the normal limit of human hearing, covering sounds beneath 20 Hz down to 0.001 Hz Ultrasound- cyclic sound pressure with a frequency greater than the upper limit of human hearing, 20 kHz serves as a useful lower limit in describing ultrasound. Sonic Boom-commonly used to refer to the shocks caused by the supersonic flight of an aircraft. Shock Wave-it carries energy and can propagate through a medium (solid, liquid, gas or plasma) or in some cases in the absence of a material medium, through a field such as the electromagnetic field.
