MECHANICS
VELOCITY
V= d/t
d-DISTANCE
t-TIME
EXPRESSED IN (UNIT):
m/s
km/s
miles/h
km/h
VELOCITY OF LIGHT
3 x 10 E 8 m/s
3 x 10 E 5 km/s
3 x 10 E 10 cm/s
3x 10 E 11 mm/s
186,400 miles/s
AVERAGE VELOCITY
V=Vo + Vf/2
ACCELERATION
a=Vf-Vo/t
Expressed in ( m/s E 2)
Gravity
The attraction between
two masses, such as
the earth and an object
on its surface.
Commonly referred to
as the acceleration of
gravity.
GRAVITY
DOWNWARD ACCELERATION
9.81m/s E 2 on the Earth
1.6m/s E 2 on the Moon
Sir Isaac Newton
NEWTON’S LAW OF
MOTION
I LAW---INERTIA
II LAW---FORCE
III LAW---ACTION/REACTION
I LAW
A BODY WILL REMAIN AT REST
OR CONTINUE TO MOVE WITH A
CONSTANT VELOCITYIN A
STRAIGHT LINE UNLESS ACTED
ON BY AN EXTERNAL FORCE
I LAW IN PRACTICE
II LAW
THE FORCE ( F) ACTED ON AN
OBJECT WITH ACCELERATION
(a) IS EQUAL TO THE MASS (m)
MULTIPLIED BY THE
ACCELERATION
F=m * a
II LAW IN PRACTICE
III LAW
FOR EVERY ACTION THERE IS
AN EQUAL AND OPPOSITE
REACTION
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WEIGHT
AND MASS
IS THERE ANY DIFFERENCE??
WEIGHT IS THE FORCE ON A
BODY CAUSED BY THE
DOWNWARD PULL OF THE
GRAVITY
WHO IS GOING TO FALL FASTER?
IN VACCUM ELEPHANT OR
FEATHER ??
WITH THE AIR
RESISTANCE!!!
WEIGHT IS EXPRESSED IN
NEWTONS NOT GRAMS OR KILOGRAMS
Wt = m * g
m –mass (kg)
g – gravity ( m/s E 2)
GRAVITY
WITH GRAVITY OR
WITHOUT?
MOMENTUM
P=m * v
TOTAL MOMENTUM BEFEORE
INTERACTION IS EQUAL TOTAL
MOMENTUM AFTER INTERACTION
WORK
WORK = F * d
F- FORCE (N)
D- DISTANCE (m)
EXPRESSED IN
JOULES (J)
POWER
P=WORK/TIME
EXPRESSED IN WATTS (W)
ENERGY IS THE ABILITY TO
DO WORK
POTENTIAL ENERGY
PE = m * g * h
m- mass (g)
g- gravity ( m/s E 2)
h- height (m)
KINETIC ENERGY
KE = ½ m * v E 2
m – mass (m)
Velocity (m/s)
POTENTIAL & KINETIC

Tc = 5/9 ( F-32)
Tf = (9/5 C) + 32
Tk = Tc + 273
