2. Objective 1.1.1 Explain
Motion
Motion - occurs when an object position relative to a
reference point
Distance - how far an object has traveled
Displacement - distance and direction of an object’s
change in position from start point
Going in same direction add
Going in difference direction subtract
6. Objective 1.1.1 Explain
Motion
Force - Push or pull
Balanced Force - Opposite direction/ equal
value/no movement
Unbalance force - Opposite direction/ one with a
greater force / movement
7. Objective 1.1.2 Newton’s 3
Laws of Motion
1st Law of Motion - An object in motion stay in
motion unless acted on by a force
Law of Inertia
8. Objective 1.1.2 Newton’s 3
Laws of Motion
Second Law - the acceleration of a body
depends on the ratio of the acting force to the
mass of the body
11. Objective 1.2.2 Friction
Friction - A force that resist motion and can cause heat
Static Friction - friction on a stationary object
Sliding friction - friction sliding over a surface
Rolling friction - friction acting on an object that rolling
Fluid friction - friction acting on a fluid (water or air)
12. Objective 1.2.2 Friction
Air Resistance - Force acting upward against
gravity (Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion)
If 2 objects drop in a vacuum both will hit the
ground at the same time.
14. Objective 3.1.4
Work and Power
Work - Transfer of energy that occurs when a
force makes an object move
Work (J) = Force (N) x Distance (m)
15. Objective 3.1.4
Work and Power
Power - The rate at which work is done
Power (Watts) = Work (J) / time (s)
16. Objective 3.1.4
Simple Machines
Makes work easier - increase force, distance, direction
Lever - Bar that is free to pivot around a fixed point
Pulley - Grooved wheel with a rope chain or cable running along groove
Wheel & Axle - As a wheel and axle
Inclined plane - Sloped surface
Screw - Inclined plane wrapped in a spiral around a cylindrical post
Wedge - An inclined plan with one or 2 sloping sides
17. Objective 3.1.4
Simple Machines
Input force - what you put into the machine
Output force - the force put out by the machine
Input work - work done by you
Output work - work done by you
19. Objective 3.1.4
Mechanical Advantage
Actual Mechanical Advantage = Output Force/Input
Force
Idea Mechanical Advantage = Input Force/Output Force
Efficiency = Work Out / Work In X 100
20. Objective 3.1.2
Energy and Heat
Energy - The ability to cause change
Forms - Electrical, Thermal, Chemical, and Mechanical
(know the differences), Nuclear Energy,
Electromagnetic Energy
Energy can only change forms, cannot be created nor
destroyed
21. Objective 3.1.2
Energy and Heat
2 Types of Energy
Kinetic Energy - Energy of motion (J) depends on
mass and speed
Potential Energy - Energy stored depends on height
22. Objective 3.1.2
Energy and Heat
Kinetic Energy = 0.5(m)(v2)
Potential Energy = m(g)(h)
Gravity on Earth = 9.8
23. Objective 3.1.2
Energy and Heat
Heat Transfers from hot to cold
Temperature is a measure of how fast molecules move
(kinetic energy)
Move fast - expand - hot
Move slow - contract - cold
24. Objective 3.1.1
Heat Transfer
Specific Heat - Amount of heat needed to raise the
temp. Of one gram of material by one degree Celsius
Low Specific - faster it heats up and cool down
25. Objective 3.1.1
Heat Transfer
3 Types of Heat Transfer
Conduction - by touch
Convection - in fluids
Radiation - through space
26. Objective 3.1.1
Heat Transfer
3 Types of Heat Transfer
Conduction - by touch
Convection - in fluids
Radiation - through space
27. Objective 3.2.2
Waves
Wave - A repeating movement or disturbance that transfers energy through
matter or space
Mechanical waves - waves that can only travel through a medium (matter)
Transverse waves - matter moves back & forth at right angles to the direction
that the wave travels
Longitudinal waves - matter in the medium moves in the same direction that
the wave travels
Electromagnetic waves - travels at the same speed in a vacuum
Surface Waves - Water Waves
28. Objective 3.2.1
Wave Parts
Crest - highest point of wave
Troughs - Lowest point of waves
Compressions - coils close together
Rarefaction - coils spread apart
Wavelength - distance between crests or troughs
Frequency - number of wavelengths that pass a fixed point
Amplitude - measure from rest position to crest or trough
30. Objective 3.2.4
Wave Interactions
Reflection - A wave strikes an object and bounces off
Refraction - bending
Diffraction - Change in direction
Interference - When 2 or more waves overlap and
combine to form a new wave
