FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is Newton's First Law of Motion?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by a net external force.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Define mass in terms of weight and gravitational acceleration.

Back

Mass is defined as weight divided by the acceleration due to gravity (m = W/g).

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the formula for calculating weight?

Back

Weight (W) is calculated using the formula W = m * g, where m is mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state?

Back

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass (F = m * a).

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you calculate the tension in a rope supporting a weight at an angle?

Back

Tension can be calculated using the formula T = W / (2 * cos(θ)), where W is the weight and θ is the angle with the horizontal.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the significance of the coefficient of friction?

Back

The coefficient of friction is a measure of how much frictional force exists between two surfaces in contact.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Explain the concept of equilibrium in physics.

Back

An object is in equilibrium when the net force acting on it is zero, meaning all forces are balanced.
