... So it must be friction that causes the car to turn. The top view of the tire in FIGURE 6.7 shows the force on one of the car’s tires as it turns a corner. It must be a static friction force, not kinetic, because the tires are not skidding: The points where the tires touch the road are not moving rel ...

2 Friction and Gravity
... surfaces push together and the types of surfaces involved. The skiers in Figure 4 get a fast ride because there is very little friction between their skis and the snow. The reindeer would not be able to pull them easily over a rough surface such as sand. Friction also increases if surfaces push hard ...

... positive displacement, y = A. The velocity is zero, but the acceleration is negative because there is a net downward force. 2. The mass is now moving downward, so the velocity is negative. As the mass nears equilibrium, the restoring force— and thus the magnitude of the acceleration—decreases. 3. At ...

Students identify interactions between objects either as being by direct contact (e.g., pushes or pulls, friction( or at a distance (e.g., gravity, electromagnetism), and to use forces to describe interactions between objects. They recognize that non-zero net forces always cause changes in motion (N ...

7 Work, Energy, and Energy Resources
... Conservation of energy (as physicists like to call the principle that energy can neither be created nor destroyed) is based on experiment. Even as scientists discovered new forms of energy, conservation of energy has always been found to apply. Perhaps the most dramatic example of this was supplied ...

Paper - College of the Redwoods
... Next we define the forces. Referring to Figure 2, we can determine these forces. We know that one is gravity and the other is the centrifugal force, a ’fictitious’ force. These components define the motion of the bead To understand why this force is called a fictitious force, think of the last time ...

Chapter 10 Angular Momentum
... A particle of mass m is moving with a constant speed v along a straight line that passes through point P. What can you say about the angular momentum of the particle relative to point P? (a) Its magnitude is mv. (b) Its magnitude is zero. (c) Its magnitude changes sign as the particle passes through ...

Hunting oscillation
Hunting oscillation is a self-oscillation, usually unwanted, about an equilibrium. The expression came into use in the 19th century and describes how a system ""hunts"" for equilibrium. The expression is used to describe phenomena in such diverse fields as electronics, aviation, biology, and railway engineering.
