Document Summary

There is a force of gravity that causes mars to be pulled towards the earth: when we apply a for(cid:272)e f o(cid:374) a(cid:374) o(cid:271)je(cid:272)t it"s a velo(cid:272)it(cid:455) (cid:272)ha(cid:374)ge (acceleration) Earth: the object travels a distance h from a to b. W = f d = mgh, unit ~ j (joule: note speed of the object is changing. We say that the object has kinetic energy. Ke = m(o)2 = 0 ( ke= mv2 : potential energy: work done by the gravity, u = mgh. In rotation motion, an object (wheel) rotates about an axis. For rotation, one needs: force and distance or from axis of rotation. Force and distance from the axis of rotation. When two rough surfaces are in contact with each other (wheel and road) a contact force (called frictional force) is acting between the. Frictional motion always moves opposite to the force. Two types of frictional forces: static (not on exam) and sliding (kinetic)
