... Potential energy = (2 kg) x (10 m/s^2) x (1 m) = 20 Joules. Potential energy only depends on its position. ____20______ Joules 11. If you were to double the height from which you dropped the book, would it hit the floor twice as hard? Explain. The potential energy varies directly with height. So, if ...

Unit 4 – Chapter 7: Oscillatory Motion Requires a Set of Conditions
... When on Earth, the length of the pendulum is the only factor affecting period of pendulum. The more the length the longer the period. On planets with less gravitational acceleration, the period increases. Mass has no effect on the period as also the ...

... Complex numbers. There√is a number i such that i2 = −1. Numbers formed by a “real” number times i, like 2i, −i 3, or xi where x is a “real” number, are called “imaginary” numbers. Don’t let the words fool you, though. All of these are perfectly valid numbers. The imaginary numbers are a group outsid ...

Let us reflect a little on the kinds of speeds one encounters in the world around. We can see a centipede crawling at a few cen ...

Forces and Collisions
... Activity 1: Experiencing Forces Forces are what we do to objects to make them move or stop or change direction. Forces are done to objects by other objects. Forces can be big or small. To compare forces we need to measure them, and some units to measure forces in. The unit used to measure Forces is ...

Chapter 7 Linear Momentum and Collisions
... Linear momentum is a useful quantity for cases where we have a few particles (objects) which interact with each other but not with the rest of the world. Such a system is called an isolated system. We often have reason to study systems where a few particles interact with each other very briefly, wit ...
