FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a vector?

Back

A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction, such as force, velocity, and displacement.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the equilibrant force?

Back

The equilibrant force is the force that balances out other forces acting on an object, making the net force zero.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you determine the direction of the equilibrant force?

Back

The equilibrant force acts in the opposite direction to the resultant force.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the normal force?

Back

The normal force is the force exerted by a surface to support the weight of an object resting on it, acting perpendicular to the surface.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you calculate the perpendicular component of a force on an incline?

Back

The perpendicular component can be calculated using the formula: F_perpendicular = F * cos(θ), where F is the force and θ is the angle of the incline.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the formula for calculating the force of friction?

Back

The force of friction can be calculated using the formula: F_friction = μ * N, where μ is the coefficient of friction and N is the normal force.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the significance of the angle in vector problems?

Back

The angle in vector problems determines the direction of the vector and is crucial for resolving vectors into their components.
