Energy and Motion Physics is Phun March 2009
Topics: Center of Mass Newton’s Laws Mechanical Energy
Center of Mass Properties • Mass “acts” at CM • CM stable at lowest point • Center of Mass Demos • CM location • CM motion
Center of Percussion • “Dynamic” CM • Baseball bat example • Tennis racket
Kinematics and Dynamics
Newton’s First Lawa. An object at rest tends to remain at rest.b. An object in motion tends to remain in motion in a straight line with a constant speed.
Newton’s First Law a. An object at rest tends to remain at rest.
Newton’s First Lawb. An object in motion tends to remain in motion in a straight line with a constant speed.
Forces and Impulse
Newton’s Second LawF = m a or a = F/mwhere F is the force,m is the mass, anda is the acceleration
Newton’s Third LawFor every actionthere is anequal and oppositereaction.
