Inertia is a scalar. It has magnitude but not direction. In the MKS system it is measured in KilogramsThe basic law of inertia as stated by Newton: Objects in uniform motion want to stay in uniform motion forever; unless acted upon by a net unbalanced force.Gravitational mass (m) an object’s ability to attract other matter and its ability to curve space. The gravitational attraction created by mass is experienced as gravitational force. This force is equal on both masses but opposite in direction. G is a constant 6.67 E-11 in the MKS systemFg = G m1 m2 / r2Note: It has never been proved that inertial mass and gravitational mass are equivalent. On the positive side, there has never been a case where the two were not equivalent.Force (F) The amount of push or pull exerted on matter. It is important to note that force is a vector. It has both magnitude and direction. The basic law of force as stated by Newton: Force causes objects to accelerate.Fnet = ma Ffrict = Fnor ? = m g (cos ??? ?Fslope = m g sin ?Fg = m gFg = G m1 m2 / r2Kinematics: the study of how things move.Acceleration (a) is a measure of how fast an object speeds up, slows down, or changes direction. It is measured in meters/sec2. In general it is given by a = ? v / ? tFor circular motion it is called acceleration centripetal and is given by the equationsac = v2 / rac = 4 ?2 R / T2ac = 4 ?2 R f2Basic Kinematics equations (note that both Vickie and Dickie require constant acceleration) Vickievf2 = vo2 + 2 a (?d) Dickie df = ? a t2 + vo t + doArthur a = ? v / ? tNewtonian reference frame: For Newton motion in the universe is all relative. There is no prime location in the universe. Each frame of reference works as well as all others. The only thing that really mattered is that for Newton’s equations to work out you needed to be in a non-accelerated frame of reference. dobserved = din reference frame + dof reference frame vobserved = vin reference frame + vof reference frameNotice: if you are in an inertial (non-accelerated) frame of reference, all of the kinematics and dynamics equations will work and give working answers in that frame and in any other observing inertial frame of reference.Momentum and Force: First Universal method of studying the world.Momentum (?) which is an inertial measure of an object’s current motion ? = mv is the basic equation for the determination of momentum. Unlike inertia, momentum is a vector. When working with momentum you must include direction. In a closed system momentum is always conserved. Total momentum in a closed system remains constant. ? Momentum before = ? Momentum after?1o + ?2o + . . . = ?1f + ?2f + . . .? = mv som1v1o + m2v2o + . . . = m1v1f + m2v2f + . . .Impulse (J) is the measure of the strength of a mechanical interaction between objects. It is seen in the momentum change in objects that the interaction produces J = ? (mv) It is also expressed in terms of the force of the interaction J = F ??tImpulse = Impulse? (mv) = F ? tIt is important to remember that momentum and impulse are vector quantities. You have to keep track of positive an negative directions.Energy and Force: the second universal way of studying the worldEnergy (E) is an alternative way of measuring the mechanical world. Energy comes in many forms and it is measured by its ability to do work with the assumption being that in a closed system the total energy will be constant. The forms of energy that we used were Kinetic energy KE = ? m v2 Gravitational Potential energy PEg = mghConservation of EnergyEnergy Before = Energy AfterWork (W) is a measure of how much energy has changed form or has entered or left a system. Mechanically, Work is found in terms of force W = F d. Most commonly when energy leaves a system it is called Wout and it is usually in terms of heat generated by friction.W = F dPower (P) is the rate at which energy changes form, enters, or leaves a systemIt is measured in Watts. P = ? E / ? tIn situations where velocity is constant we can useP = F vThe English units for power are Horsepower. One horsepower is equal to 745 Watts.Review problems.

AP Physics is tough. It requires commitment, hard work, and teamwork. Let me make this perfectly clear, AP Physics is a team sport. Look around you for a moment. Your obligation here is not just to learn, but to teach physics to each and every individual in this classroom. Holding yourself back holds the whole class back. For the sake of the rest of us, if you are not willing to do the work and go the distance, drop this class now!This is taken from another challenge but it applies here.I am here to work hard, to work with the best, to teach the best, and to take the AP Exam with the best of intentions.Signed: _________________________________________________Chapter 2 MomentumCh 7 in GiancoliOne of Newton’s greatest contributions to physics is the concept of momentum and the argument that in closed systems momentum is always conserved. For him an object’s mass and velocity share equal importance when discussing the impact that objects will have on other objects when interactions occur. Momentum p = m vMomentum is a vector and we have to include direction. Lets look at some simple review problems where objects collide and stick together.A 10 kg cat runs with a speed of 8 m/sec into a stationary 20 kg bale of hay. Assume that the cat and hay are on a frictionless surface. Find the resultant speed of the two.Conservation of momentummcat vcat = _______________vfinal = _______________A 10 kg cat comes up from behind with a speed of 8 m/sec and runs into a 20 kg bale of hay. The hay was already going 2 meters per second in the same direction Assume that the cat and hay are on a frictionless surface. And they stick upon hitting. Find the resultant speed of the two.A 10 kg cat runs with a speed of 8 m/sec into a 20 kg bale of hay. The hay was going in the opposite direction with a speed of 8 meters per second. Assume that the cat and hay are on a frictionless surface and they stick when they collide. Find the resultant speed of the two.From a global view (closed system) momentum is always conserved. From an individual particle’s point of view that particle either gains or loses momentum depending on the magnitude of the interaction. He called this change in momentum Impulse.Impulse on an object = ? (m v)He also discovered that impulse on an object was equal to the combination of force and time of interaction. Impulse on an object = F ? tLets look at examples of impulse.Return to problem 1 in this section and find the magnitude of the impulse on the cat.Return to problem 1 in this section and find the magnitude of the impulse on the bale of hay.If the collision in problem 1 lasted one tenth of a second, how much force did the cat experience?Return to problem 3 in this section and find the impulse on the cat.If the collision lasted one tenth of a second how much force did the cat experience.Momentum and Impulse apply to all sorts of interactions between objects. An explosion is another sort of interaction.Assume an explosion deep in space (no mentionable gravity) blows apart two masses. Mass A is 6 kg and goes upwards with a speed of 10 m/sec. How fast and what direction is the 2 kg Mass B going?What is the impulse on mass B? (Show your work)Which would you rather be hit by: the fastest pitched baseball (40 m/sec) or the fastest served tennis ball? To answer this question, determine the following quantities?…the momentum of each ball the impulse delivered if the baseball stops dead on impact but the tennis ball rebounds at nearly the same speed.Write your answers in the table below.QuantityBaseballTennis BallMass145 grams57 gramsVelocityMomentumImpulse12. A problem for Americans — because Americans still think non-metric units are fine. Analyze this?…Now, the bears I live with average, the males, eight to twelve hundred pounds. They're the largest bears in the world?…. They've been clocked at 41 [mph] and they've run a hundred meter dash in 5.85 seconds, which a human on steroids doesn't even approach. Timothy Treadwell author of Among Grizzlies. The Late Show with David Letterman. NBC. 20?February?2001.A. Mr. Treadwell states two different top speeds for the grizzly bear — one directly and one indirectly. Are they effectively the same? Explain.B. Pick whichever speed you wish and compute the momentum of a Grizzly bear (in SI units) using the average mass quoted by Mr. Treadwell.C. How fast would a 200?lb man have to run to have the same momentum you calculated in part b? (Do not use a calculator to compute your answer.)D. How fast would a 2000?lb car have to drive to have the same momentum you calculated in part b? (Do not use a calculator to compute your answer.)Read this passage about one of the difficulties of interstellar travel., the faster we go, the more difficult it is to avoid collisions with small objects and the more damage such a collision will wreak. Even if we are fortunate enough to miss all sizable objects, we can scarcely expect to miss the dust and individual atoms that are scattered throughout space. At two-tenths of the speed of light, dust and atoms might not do significant damage even in a voyage of 40 years, but the faster you go, the worse it is — space begins to become abrasive. When you begin to approach the speed of light, each hydrogen atom becomes a cosmic ray particle and will fry the crew. (A hydrogen atom or its nucleus striking the ship at nearly the speed of light is a cosmic ray particle, and there is no difference if the ship strikes the hydrogen atom or nucleus at nearly the speed of light. As Sancho Panza: "Whether the stone strikes the pitcher, or the pitcher strikes the stone, it is bad for the pitcher.") So 60,000 kilometers per second may be the practical speed limit for space travel.Isaac Asimov. "Sail On! Sail On!" The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Vol.?72 (February?1987): 4. The density of the interstellar medium is about one hydrogen atom per cubic centimeter. Imagine a 1000?tonne (1 tonne is 1000 kg), 4 by 6 meter, classroom-sized interstellar spacecraft traveling at 60,000?km/s on its way to Proxima Centauri (the nearest solar system to our own (4.0 E13 km away)). A. How long would it take our hypothetical spacecraft to complete its hypothetical journey?impulse–momentumB. Determine the momentum of our spacecraft.C. What mass of interstellar medium is swept up during the journey?D. What impulse does the interstellar medium deliver to the spacecraft?E. How does this impulse compare to the momentum of the spacecraft?work–energyF. Determine the kinetic energy of our spacecraft.G. What is the effective drag force of the interstellar medium during the journey?H. How much work does the interstellar medium do on the spacecraft?I. How does this work compare to the kinetic energy of the spacecraft?conceptualIn older passenger cars, body panels were attached to a single frame around the perimeter, making them very rigid. This is known as body-over-frame construction. In newer cars, different body parts have stress-bearing elements within them and these parts are then welded to each other. This is known as unitized body construction. Repairing "unibody" cars after collision is comparatively difficult as stress (and thus damage) are distributed throughout the different parts. Why then are cars now built this wayTo escape from a horrible fire, two people are forced to jump from the third story of a burning building on to solid concrete. Which person is more likely to sustain serious injuries: the jumper who comes to an abrupt halt when he lands or the jumper who bounces after impact?numericalWhen hit, the velocity of a 0.145?kg baseball changes from +20?m/s to ?20?m/s. What is the magnitude of the impulse delivered by the bat to the ball? A rubber ball of mass 0.025?kg traveling at 4.0?m/s down strikes the floor and bounces straight up at 2.0?m/s. Find the magnitude of the impulse that the floor gave to the ball. A model rocket has mass of 1.5?kg. The engine exerts an effective upward thrust of 120?N for 3.2?seconds. (Assume a negligible amount of air resistance while the rocket is ascending.) Determine?… the net force on the rocket the net impulse on the rocket the speed of the rocket when the engine stopped the height of the rocket above the ground when the engine stopped After the engine shuts down, the rocket is still moving upward. What maximum height above the ground did the rocket reach?Momentum in Two DimensionsWorking with collisions that happen in two dimensions is similar to what we have done in the past. The major difference is that we must keep track of both horizontal and vertical aspects of momentum. Imagine that two masses A (10 kg) and B (4 kg) are moving horizontally with a speed of 2 meters per second. Then, while they are moving a small explosion pushes then apart. Object A ends up going upwards with a speed of 2 m/sec. Find the downward speed of B.

Pick up a sample spring from the front of the classroom and hang it from a fixed horizontal rod. Place a hanger at the end of the spring and measure the distance to the ground (or reference point)FgDoDf1472565444500Disp (X)1 Newton2 Newtons3 Newtons4 Newtons5 Newtons6 NewtonsGraph the line and determine its slope.The relationship between spring restorative force and its stretch is given by Hook’s Law.Fsp = - k x“k” is called the spring constant and it is a measure of the stiffness of the spring. Notice that Hook’s law is stated as a negative. This is because the direction a spring acts in always in opposition to the displacement of the spring. Pull on a spring and it pulls back. Push on a spring and it springs back.Lets look at several places where springs are used. Explain how you would find the spring constant of a short length of surgical tubing.Find the spring constant of a piece of surgical tubing.Data:Eq:Ans:Find the spring constant of twice the length of the same tubing.Data:Eq:Ans:A retractable ball point pen has a spring inside of it.

When a 100 kg person sits down on inside a car the car settles down 1 cm. Energy stored in a springEnergy can be stored in springs. The stored energy in a spring is given by the following equation.PEsp = ? k x2Imagine you have a spring that has a spring constant of 500 n/meter is being stretched one cm at a time. Graph the energy stored in the spring.Notice that most of the energy stored in a spring is stored in the last part of its stretch.Springs and energy problems.A 10 gram pellet is fired from a pellet gun with a speed of 50 m/sec. The gun’s energy comes from a spring that is stretched 10 cm. What is the spring constant of the spring? A 2 kg block is pushed back against a spring. The spring compresses 20 cm. If the spring constant is 300 n/m, how fast will the block be going when it is released?Given the picture below, find the following for a 4 kg block at the top of a 10 meter high hill: The speed of the block at the bottom of the hill.EquationSubstitutionsAnswerThe magnitude of the spring constant needed to stop the block in a distance of 1 meter.EquationSubstitutionsAnswerThe acceleration of the block when the spring has compressed 0.25 meters.EquationSubstitutionsAnswerThe acceleration of the block when the spring has compressed 0.5 meters.EquationSubstitutionsAnswerContinued from previous pageThe acceleration of the block when the spring has compressed 0.75 meters.EquationSubstitutionsAnswerThe acceleration of the block at the moment the block has stopped moving into the spring.EquationSubstitutionsAnswerHow fast is the block going when the spring is compressed by 0.5 meters?EquationSubstitutionsAnswer How much work has been done on the block by the time it has compressed the spring by 0.5 meters?EquationSubstitutionsAnswerA spring with a spring coefficient of 100 is compressed by a distance of 0.5 meters and placed between two blocks.

How fast are the blocks going afterwards?Conservation of EnergyConservation of MomentumA spring with a spring coefficient of 100 is compressed by a distance of 0.5 meters and placed between two blocks.

How fast are the blocks going afterwards?Conservation of EnergyConservation of MomentumA 10 kg block is pushed with a force of 50 Newtons into a spring that has a spring constant of 62.5 and then released.

You have been introduced to this concept numerous times in math classes and introductory science classes. We will quickly review the basics. In the M-K-S (Meter, Kilogram, Second) version of the metric system the unit of distance is the meter. Volume starts with this basic unit cubed. This is fairly large so we often break it down into smaller units. The cubic decimeter – often called the liter – is a common one.ConversionsCubic meters Cubic Decimeters Cubic Centimeters Cubic Millimeters ( m3 ) ( liters ) (CCs or milliliters) 1 meter cubed____________________________________ ____________ 1 liter________________________ ________________________ 1 cc____________ ____________________________________ 1 cubic millimeterLets do some quick measurements of volume.

However, before we do, we need to get some practice dealing with pressure.

Normally she wears tennis shoes. Each shoe has a bottom surface area of 116 cm2.

The stiletto heels get very narrow where they hit the ground. The bottom surface is only 0.3 cm2. Your sister is of average size, 65 kg. When she walks she places all of her weight on the heel. Answer the following:Your sister’s weight _______________ NewtonsThe pressure is she exerting on the ground while standing on one foot ________________ Pascals________________ PSIBTW, when Disneyland first opened to the public in 1955. Stiletto heels were in fashion. The weather was hot. And, the asphalt was fresh. Women were leaving deep marks in the asphalt. Some had their shoes get stuck in the asphalt.The neat thing about liquids is that if there is not a substantial elevation difference. The pressure at one location is the same as the pressure at all other locations. This is how a hydraulic lift works. Below is a picture of a system with a 10 kg mass on top of a small diameter piston. Pressure caused by this mass translates into a substantial lifting force acting on the larger piston.325183521145500What is the weight of the 10 kg mass?___________________What is the pressure created by the mass___________________What is the upwards force acting on the large piston?___________________How many kg of material must be on the larger piston to keep it from moving upwards?___________________370903570485000Remember when we determined the mass of my car by pushing it and measuring the car’s acceleration? Well, it turns out that you can determine the car’s mass by measuring the contact area between the wheels and the ground. This can be done if you know the air pressure in the tires. Lets try this out. What we will do is to lift one side of the car and place carbon paper underneath the wheels. Then we will lower the car down. What is the contact area of the front wheel?________________What is the contact area of the back wheel?________________What is the pressure in the tires?________________What is the mass of the car?___________________Energy and FluidsIn the past we studied energy as it related to particles. There was kinetic energy (KE) which is a measure of the energy in a particle’s motion and gravitational potential energy PEg which is a measure of the energy stored in a particle’s elevation. The equations for these two forms of energy arePEg = m g hKE = 1/2 m v2With fluids it is often impossible to measure the total energy in a fluids system because one does not know exactly how many particles there are in the system. For example, how do we measure the total energy in the Mississippi River system? Fortunately, we can do a lot of energy stuff , even if we don’t know about every drop in the stream. What we do need to know is the energy density of the fluid. Energy of Energy densityparticles of fluidsPEg = m g h PEg/vol = ? g hKE = 1/2 m v2 KE/vol = 1/2 ? v2 Let us start by looking at PEg/vol (Pressure) Below are three glass tubes. Each has a certain amount of water in it. The pressure of the water at the bottom is due only to the height of the water above. PEg/vol = ? g h Pressure due to water = ____________, _____________, _____________ Absolute pressure = ____________, _____________, _____________Lets combine what we have just learned with some older material. Imagine that your neighbor has a tall water tank (shown below) She is bored and decides to shoot it up with her assault rifle. She fires five holes into the tank at different heights. Find the following for each hole: the pressure (Energy/vol), the velocity at which the water leaves (KE/vol), and the distance away from the tank at which each stream of water lands.We do not need to find absolute pressure – can you explain why?

As you go deeper into the ocean, the weight of the water above you increases. Consequently you feel greater pressure. Water has a density of 1000 kg/m3. How far down do you have to go for the total pressure to be equal to 2 atmospheres?Hint: one atmosphere is 101325 Pascals_________________ meters_________________ feet37090354191000The Marianna Trench is the deepest point in the pacific ocean.

Pressure on the sphere is related to the outwards force of the collisions of the myriads of molecules that are inside of the sphere. But, moving molecules have KE. This implies that there must be a relationship between pressure and energy. Below we will be answering these questions in a not so scientific but very effective way.Unit matching – An effective tool in scienceIn college it was common practice among students, when you were up against a wall and could not solve a problem, to reverse engineer through units. The procedure went like this. Look at the units of the answer that you are trying to find. Next, look at the units of what you are given. Then manipulate the units so that they end up in the form of those found in the answer. This approach bothered me. For, while it consistently worked, it demonstrated no real knowledge of the underlying physics. This being said, I have found unit matching a valuable problem solving method. The following is a good example. We have been studying pressure. So, is pressure more like energy or more like force? Lets look at the units and how they came about. PressureConstituent UnitsPascals Kg / ( m sec2 )We will derive them on the next page using Newton’s second law and then see how they are related to energy.Pressure in terms of ForceWe know that Force = m a Newtons = kg (m/sec2)We can view pressure in terms of force Pressure = Force / Area Pascals = (Newtons) / ( m2 ) Pascals = (Kg m/sec2) / m2 Pascals = Kg / ( m sec2 )From this point of view Pressure acts as a force if we are looking at its effects on a surface..Pressure in terms of EnergyWe know that PEg = m g hSo, Joules are kg m/sec2 mOrJoules are Kg m2 /sec2Below we shall see how Force/Area is the unit equivalent of Energy/VolForce / Area Energy / Volume Newtons / meter2 (Joules) / ( m3 ) Kg (m/ sec2) / ( m2 ) = (Kg m2/sec2) / ( m3 ) Kg / ( m sec2 ) = Kg / ( m sec2 )Basically, Pressure is Force if we are looking at its effect on surfaces.But,Pressure is Energy if we are looking at its effect on volumes. Lets see how we can use the pressure – energy relationship in problem solving. To the left is a picture of a high pressure gas cylinder. We decide to fill it up with air. How much energy is stored in the cylinder?51435-5524500VolumeMax PressureEnglish 2640 ci 3600 psiMetric0.0433 m3 2.48 E 7 J/m3 Remember that the pressure is a measure of Energy per unit volume.Pressure = Energy / volume orEnergy = (Pressure) x ( volume)Energy = ____________ J/m3 _______________ m3Energy = ______________ JoulesThis sounds like a lot of energy but it compares to only 1/8th of a cup of gasoline. 439483566675000Inside closed systems, Energy is conserved.

It came to be known as Bernoulli’s principle. Basically he figured that fluids held energy in three different ways: Gravitational, Kinetic, and Pressure.43770559398000PEg= m g h for a static material?? g h per unit volume ? is measured in kg/m3KE = 1/2 m v2 static material= 1/2 ? v2 per unit volume? is measured in kg/m3 Pressure= for all fluidsBelow is a simplified version of Bernoulli’s principle. Essentially it is the law of conservation of energy applied to liquids. It works any incompressible fluid, as long as there is little or no friction or drag (Wout). Before = AfterPEgo + KEo + Po = PEgf + KEf + PfLets start with a very simple problem. We will be looking at a one-liter chunk of water. We will see what happens to it as it flows through pipes of varying sizes. Initially the water is flowing through pipes at a rate of 1 liter per second (1 kg per second). The nominal diameter of the pipes is 4 cm (0.04 meters) at a pressure of 400,000 N/m2. Answer the following:358457518859500What is the cross-sectional area of the pipe? ____________________Remember: 1 liter is one thousandth of a cubic meter.What is the linear velocity of the water?

Show your work on the back of the previous page. 359473516065500 An underground pipe carries water of density 1000 kg m3 to a fountain at ground level, as shown above. At point A, 0.50 m below ground level, the pipe has a cross-sectional area of 1.0 -4 m2. At ground level, the pipe has a cross-sectional area of 0.50 E-4 m2.

It is central to the physics of wings and propellers. The exact calculations are very difficult and require very sophisticated mathematics. However, a first approximation is relatively easy to make and surprisingly accurate. We start by assuming that air that makes up our atmosphere acts like an incompressible liquid when something slices through it. Imagine our atmosphere sort of like a giant jello mold. If a knife blade were to be passed horizontally through the jello atmosphere, jello will be temporarily displaced by the blade. It cannot go downward because the ground is below and we are assuming that air will not compress. All of the air above gets pushed upward only to fall back down on top of the same lower block of air after the blade goes by. Notice how each vertical section of air moves up as the blade passes by. The picture above shows what is happening from the point of view of a person who is stationary with the atmosphere. From the blade’s frame of reference, the blade is stationary and the blocks of air are moving from the left side of the page to the right side.Below is a picture of a typical airfoil. Notice that the distance from front to back over the top of the airfoil is greater than the distance below (y > x). . Because both blocks of air will come back together after the foil has moved past, the top block of air must have a greater apparent surface speed (Vtop > Vbottom) than the block of air on the bottom. 19945357747000 The fact that Vabove is greater than Vbelow has great consequences on the foil. Remember that the conservation laws of physics must always be obeyed. This includes Bernoulli’s principle. Let us look at a representative block of air that will pass underneath the airfoil. It has both KE and Pressure. Because the speed of the block remains the same below the foil the air pressure remains the same as well.Below the airfoilKEo + Po = KEbottom + PbottomIf we look at a block of air passing over the top of the foil we see that the KE increases over the airfoil. There is no free lunch in physics. For energy to be conserved the gain in KE must be balanced by an equal loss in pressure.Above the airfoilKEo + Po = KEabove + PaboveNotice that there is less downward pressure on the wing from above than there is upward pressure from below.Air pressure acts on all surfaces of the foil. Because there is less pressure acting down on the top surface of the foil than acting upward on the bottom of the foil, there is a net upward push.Sample problem: Imagine you own a private airplane. The physical specifications of the plane are given below.353060015176500Wingspan = 30.0 feet (9.2 m)Wing area: 160 sq ft (15.14 m2)Distance X = 1.65 mDistance Y = 2.145 mEmpty weight: 1201 lb (544 kg)Loaded weight: 2150 lb (975 kg)There is a minimum speed that you must have for the plane to lift off from the ground. On the next pages we are going to do the physics necessary in order to calculate the minimum takeoff speed of your airplane. Here we go.We start with that air particles cross the top surface of the wing in exactly the same amount of time as it takes for air molecules to pass underneath the bottom surface of the wing.Remember that the geometry of the wing determines how fast the air must move on the top and bottom surfaces of the wing. Where the air moves more quickly the kinetic energy of the air is greater and the potential energy (air pressure) is less. Let us start by determining the relative air speeds. Remember that air traveling over the top of the wing must reach the trailing (back) edge of the wing at the same time as air that moves under the wing. Time above = Time belowSince D = v tDabove / Vabove=Dbelow / Vbelow Solve for Vabove in Terms of VbelowV above = ( ) VbelowWrite Bernoulli’s equation for air flowing over the top of the wing vs. air flowing underneath the wing.Energy Below Wing = Energy Above WingPbelow + KEx = Pabove + KEy Wings provide lift because the bottom surfaces have a larger air pressure pushing them upward than the top surfaces feel pushing downwards. We can find this difference in pressure by bringing all the pressures to the left side of the equation and the KE’s to the right. Pbelow - Pabove = KEy - KEx??P (N/m2) = 1/2 ? vabove2 - 1/2 ? vbelow2The density of dry air at sea level is ??= 1.2 kg/m3 ? P (N/m2)= 1/2 (1.2) vabove2 - 1/2 (1.2) vbelow2? P (N/m2)= ________ ( vabove2 - vbelow2 )We can now find how much lift you get per square meter of wing in terms of the plane’s speed. Substituting for Vabove we get? P (N/m2)= _____ ((____ vx) 2 - vx2 ))? P (N/m2)= _____ (vx) 2 (___ - 1 )? P (N/m2)= ________ ( vx2 )? P is the pressure difference between the top and bottom of the wing. Since pressure is measured in force per unit area, since we know the total area (bottom surface) of the wing we can find the amount of lift at any speed.? P = Force / surface area________ = Forcelift / __________Forcelift = ___________When fully loaded the plane has a mass of 975 kg. What is its weight in Newtons?Fg = m gFg = _________ _________ Fg = _________Calculate the minimum take off velocity for a fully loaded plane.(should be somewhere near 40 m/sec)Sample car problem:Below is the Stimson mobile. It is an airfoil of sorts. Because of this it appears to get lighter at higher speeds (not necessarily a good thing) When the car is moving at 40 m/sec, how much lighter will it be? And, should we worry?Another plane problem. The MIT human powered plane the Daedalus weighs only 69 lbs. Fully loaded it is about 117 kg. In 1988 it flew the 199 km from the Iraklion Air Force Base on Crete in the Mediterranean Sea, to the island of Santorini. What minimum speed does it need to be able to fly?The wing has a span of 34 meters and a surface area of 31 m2The average underside wing width is 1 meterThe average topside width is 1.35 meters Answer ________________m/sec_________________ mphShow you work on the back side of this pageBelow is a picture of a spin ball which is moving toward the right side of the page. Using you knowledge of the Bernoulli principle, draw the direction of the net force acting on the ball. Explain your answer. .You have probably been into stores during the summer where there is a beach ball floating up above a fan. This is usually done as an advertisement for fans. Not only is it an effective advertisement for fans but it is also a great demonstration of physics. Explain. Notice that the ball still floats even whenthe fan is at an angleWe need to pause for a moment. While it is true that airfoils use Bernoulli’s principle for a substantial portion of their lift, it is also true that the attack angle of a wing has an enormous impact on lift. Angle of attack works on the concept of Impulse (remember conservation of momentum?) .Diverting the mass of the air flow downward places an upward force on the wing. In the next section three we shall review the one dimensional studies of momentum and extend them to two and three dimensions.For a more complete explanation of the physics of flight go to ForcesHave you ever wondered why some objects float and other objects sink? For that matter, have you ever wondered big ships float when they are made out of steel, a material that sinks in water? The math for determining is very simple understanding. Objects sink into water until the mass of the water they displace is equal to the object’s own mass. It is all a matter of density (sometimes known as specific gravity. In the metric system the specific gravity of water is measured in one of three ways 1000 kg/m3 or 1 kg /decimeter3 or 1 gram per cm3 1 kg / liter 1 gr/mlBelow are objects that will be placed into water.Balsa wood has a density of 110 kg/m3. A block of balsa (one meter on a side) is placed in water. How deep will it sink in the water?Oak has a density of 770 kg/m3. A block of oak (one meter on a side) is placed in water. How deep will it sink in the water?Steel has a density of 7800 kg/m3. A block of steel (one meter on a side) is placed in water.
