Define: Centripetal Force Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
When the net force of an object points toward the center of a circular path, it is said to have a centripetal force. In order for there to be circular motion, the net force has to be toward the center of the circle. Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
What does a negative velocity look like on a position-time graph? Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
A constant negative slope. Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD

What does a negative acceleration look like on a velocity-time graph? Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD

What is the difference between a vector and a scalar? Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
A vector has both magnitude AND direction. Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
If an airplane is flying due East at 130 km/hr, but there is a wind heading due West at 25 km/hr, what is the resultant velocity of the plane? Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
105 km/hr due East Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
Daily Double!!! At the top of the trajectory of a rubber ball thrown in the air, the vertical velocity is 0 m/s. What is the acceleration at the top of the trajectory? Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
9.8 m/s/s downward Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
If the initial horizontal velocity of a tossed basketball is 8 m/s, what is its horizontal velocity right before it hits the ground? Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
8 m/s Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
Explain how/why the horizontal and vertical motion of a projectile (cannonball in flight) are independent. Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
The vertical dimension is affected by gravity, so the vertical acceleration is constant (or the vertical velocity is always changing). The horizontal dimension is NOT affected by gravity, so the horizontal velocity is always constant. Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
Which of Newton’s Laws tells us about Net Force? Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
2nd Law Fnet=ma Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
Explain why the marker falls into the hoop during the hoop & marker demonstration Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
Inertia. The marker wants to maintain its constant velocity of zero Inertia. The marker wants to maintain its constant velocity of zero. When the force is applied to the hoop, the marker stays at rest, but then falls because of Earth’s gravity. Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
Explain why an object that is accelerating must have unbalanced forces acting on it. Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
Based on Newton’s 2nd Law (Fnet=ma), we know that in order for there to be an acceleration, there has to be a non-zero net force. Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
Timmy is pushing a chair to the right with a force of 40 N and Sally is pulling the chair to the left. If the net force is zero, what amount of force is Sally pulling with? Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
40 N Template by Modified by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Chad Vance, CCISD
