07 projectile motion, circular motion (McGowan)

07 projectile motion, circular motion (McGowan)

AB
Projectilesomething that flies through the air
trajectorypath a projectile follows
horizontal speed of a projectilestays the same (no gravitational effect)
Vertical speed of a projectileincreases (gravity speeds it up as it falls)
periodtime to make one revolution
centripetal acceleration is directed where in circular motiontoward the center of the circle (an acceleration)
Centripetal force is directed where in circular motiontoward the center of the circle (a force)
Linear velocity is directed where in circular motiontangent to the circle
if an object is traveling with centripetal acceleration and the cord breaks what direction will the object taketangent to the circle at the point released
Torqueproduct of force and lever arm F X d (It is an angular force)
Torque is increased withmore force or longer lever arm
pendulum equation show that an object is dependent upon _______________?the length of the pendulum only (gravity of the planet it is on)
During a baseball throw the speed is at a maximumat the begining and end of the throw
During a baseball throw the speed is zeroat the top of the throw
During a baseball throw the vertical gravity is -9.81At the top middle and all points of the throw - IT NEVER STOPS
Vertical gravity effecting of a projectile is-9.81 m/s/s
Horizontal gravity effecting a projectile is0 m/s/s (NO SUCH THING AS HORIZONTAL GRAVITY ON EARTH)
Simple harmonic motion (RESONANCE)restoring force varies linearly with displacement. ex. fricitonless spring vibrating back and forth
At the top of a harmonic swing displacement is the ______________, velocity is the __________, and acceleration is the ____________ and opposite direction as the displacement.greatest, least(zero), maximum to restore object back to equilibrium
