Supplemental Lecture II: Special Relativity in Tensor Notation
... We see that no matter which representation we choose, we always get the same result¶ . We now have all of the conceptual pieces of this new index notation in place. An object with one index is a vector, which is a set of three numbers that transforms in a particular way under rotations. An object wi ...

... In the previous two lessons we discussed the different ways by which motion can be described (words, graphs, diagrams, numbers, etc.). This unit (Newton's first Law of Motion) will concern the ways through which motion can be explained. Isaac Newton (a 17th century scientist) put forward a variety o ...

... Example 9.5. You are designing an airplane propeller that is to turn at 2400 rpm (or revolutions per minute). The forward airspeed of the plane is to be 75.0 m/s, and the speed of the tips of the propeller blades through the air must not exceed 270 m/s. (This is about 80% of the speed of the sound i ...

Pearson Physics Level 30 Unit V Momentum and Impulse: Chapter 9
... 5. An object has inertia because every object has mass. If an object is stationary, it has inertia but its momentum is zero. If the same object is in motion, it still has inertia but its momentum will not be zero. So, provided that the mass of the object does not change, the motion of the object doe ...

In order for work to be done the force needs to cause the displacement. If there is no displacement no work is done. 7. By what factor does the kinetic energy ...
