Content:
A free fall is a motion under gravity. v f − vo = ± >¿ vf^2 − vo^2 = ± gh h = vo t ± 1 2 g t 2 CURVILINEAR MOTION Projectile: is a body which after being given an initial velocity with an angle of release is allowed to travel under the action of gravity only. At any point: Maximum Height: Time to reach the highest point: Range: Total time of flight:
Content:
hr ho Where: ho – original height hr – height of rebound
Uniform Motion: θ = ω x t Uniformly Accelerated Motion θ = ωo t ± 1 2 α t 2 ωf = ωo ± αt θ = ( ωf + ωo ) t 2 Relationship between angular and tangential quantities: S = rθ v = rω a = rα Note: θ , ω , ∧ α Must be in rad, rad/s, and rad/s^2 respectively Uniform Circular motion Centripetal force: Fc = mv 2 r = mr ω 2 Centripetal acceleration: ac = v 2 r = r ω 2 Note: Centripetal force must be directed toward the center of the circular path ROTATION OF RIGID BODIES The kinetic energy of rotation: KEr = 1 2 l ω 2 Total Kinetic Energy KET = KEr + KEt KET = 1 2 lω 2
1 2 mv 2 Where: KEr – kinetic energy of rotation KEt – kinetic energy of translation KET – total kinetic energy l – moment of inertia ω – angular velocity, (rad/s) BANKING OF CURVES Ideal angle of banking θ =tan − 1 v 2 gr For maximum velocity of the car without skidding tan (^ θ + ∅ )= v 2 gr Where: θ – angle of banking ∅ - angle of friction v -velocity r – radius of curvature CABLES Parabolic Cables:
a. internal force b. external force c. body force d. surface force
