Calculus-Based Physics I
... ‘x’ equals minus ‘b’, plus-or-minus the square root of ‘b’ squared minus four ‘a’ ‘c’, all over two ‘a’. So, how do you know when you have to use the quadratic formula? There is a good chance that you need it when the square of the variable for which you are solving, appears in the equation you are ...

Physics 120 Lab 3: Modeling Motion of Cart on Track: no force
... will undergo oscillation and so we expect the cart to move between the left and right ends of the track. Therefore, we pick the center of the track to be the position of the mass when the spring is at its natural length. Conveniently, the center of the track is the origin, and so the amount of stret ...

Perhaps the most common area of confusion has to do with the listing of the forces which act on a given object. Most people require a cons ...

Pearson Physics Level 30 Unit V Momentum and Impulse: Chapter 9
... mass change, or both velocity and mass change. An example of a situation where both velocity and mass change occurs when a rocket takes off. The rocket accelerates upward (change in velocity) and fuel is consumed (change in mass). 5. An object has inertia because every object has mass. If an object ...
