Document Summary

Equation sheet: make your own, one double sided letter size. An object moves in a straight line and at constant speed except to the extent that it interacts with other objects. Inertial frame: a frame in which newton"s first law of motion is valid. Physical laws work in the same way in any inertial frame. If a solid object rotates at constant angular velocity, is it possible to chose an inertial reference frame in which the object will not rotate: yes, no. The rate of change of momentum is equal to the net force acting on an object mvg=(cid:1) p (cid:1) g= Clicker: rate of change of momentum (cid:1) dp dt (cid:1) A) yes: no, is the net force |fnet| constant? (cid:1) + (cid:1) mg f seat: yes, no, is |fseat| constant? (cid:1) F seat (cid:1) ef n t (cid:1) mg: yes, no.
