Center of Mass and Momentum
... •If the net external force on a system of particles is zero, then (even if the velocity of individual objects changes), there is a point associated with the distribution of objects that moves with zero acceleration (constant velocity). •This point is called the “center of mass” of the system. It is ...

Kinetic Friction Experiment
... Kinetic friction forces are the forces that sliding surfaces exert on each other parallel to their surfaces. Kinetic friction forces are cumulative effects of the forces between all the microscopic contact points of the sliding surfaces. As a result, friction forces vary with the types of surfaces i ...

... What happens to the work done on a system? Energy is transferred into the system, but in what form? Does it remain in the system or move on? The answers depend on the situation. For example, if the lawn mower in Figure 7.2(a) is pushed just hard enough to keep it going at a constant speed, then ener ...
