Mechanics Review
Kinematics – 18%Chapters 2,3,4
• Position vs. displacement• Speed vs. Velocity• Acceleration• Kinematic Equations for constant acceleration• Vectors and Vector Addition• Projectile Motion – x,y motion are independent• Uniform Circular Motion
Kinematics –Motion in One and Two Dimensions
• Key Ideas and Vocabulary– Motion in the x is independent from motion in the y– Displacement, velocity, acceleration– Graphical Analysis of Motion –
• x vs. t - Slope is velocity• v vs. t - Slope is acceleration
- Area is displacement• a vs. t – Can be used to find the change in velocity
– Centripetal Acceleration is always towards the center of the circle

Newton’s Laws of Motion – 20%Chapters 5 & 6
• Newton’s Three Laws of Motion– Inertia– Fnet = ma – Equal and opposite forces
• Force• Weight vs. Mass• Free Body Diagrams• Tension, Weight, Normal Force• Friction – Static and Kinetic, Air Resistance• Centripetal Forces and Circular Motion• Drag forces and terminal speed
Newton’s Laws of MotionSecond Law Problems
• Newton’s Second Law – – Draw free body diagram identifying forces on a
single object– Break forces into components– Apply 2nd Law and solve x & y components
simultaneously– Inclined Plane –
• Rotate axes so that acceleration is in the same direction as the x-axis

Newton’s Laws of MotionAir Resistance – Drag Force
• Identify forces and draw free body diagrams• May involve a differential equation
– Example:
• Separate variables and solve. Should end up with something that decreases exponentially
• Terminal Velocity – Drag force and gravity are equal in magnitude – Acceleration is equal to zero

Systems & Linear MomentumCenter of Mass, Internal and External forces
• Center of Mass can be calculated by summing the individual pieces of a system or by integrating over the solid shape.
• If a force is internal to a system the total momentum of the system does not change
• Only external forces will cause acceleration or a change in momentum.
• Usually we can expand the system so that all forces are internal.
Systems & Linear MomentumCollisions
• Inelastic collisions – (objects stick together) – Kinetic energy is lost– Momentum is conserved
• Elastic Collisions – (objects bounce off) – Kinetic energy is conserved– Momentum is conserved
Systems & Linear MomentumImpulse
•Impulse is the change in momentum
•Momentum will change when a force is applied to an object for a certain amount of time
•Area of Force vs Time curve will be the change in momentum
Systems & Linear MomentumConservation of Momentum
• Momentum will always be conserved unless an outside force acts on an object.
• Newton’s Second Law could read:
• Newton’s Third Law is really a statement of conservation of momentum
• Set initial momentum equal to final momentum and solve – make sure to solve the x and y components independently

How something rotates will depend on the mass and the distribution of mass
Parallel Axis Theorem – allows us to calculate I for an object away from its center of mass

Circular Motion and RotationMoment of Inertia
• For objects made of multiple pieces, find the moment of inertia for each piece individually and then sum the moments to find the total moment of inertia

• Rotational analog for force – depends on the force applied and the distance from the axis of rotation
• If more than one torque is acting on an object then you simply sum the torques to find the net torqu

•Angular momentum will always be conserved in the same way that linear momentum is conserved
•As you spin, if you decrease the radius (or I) then you should increase speed to keep angular momentum constant
