The Big 50 Revision Guidelines ‐ M1 OPHS The Big 50 Revision Guidelines for M1 If you can understand all of these you’ll do very well… 1. Understand what is meant by a Model in Mechanics‚ and why all real‐life systems have to be modelled in order to be analysed theoretically 2. Know how everyday objects are modelled as Particle‚ Lamina‚ Rigid Body‚ Rod (Light‚ Uniform‚ Non‐ uniform)‚ String (Light‚ Inextensible)‚ Pulley (Light‚ Smooth)‚ Surface (Rough‚ Smooth)‚ Bead‚ Wire and Peg

Macarilay Department of Math and Physics College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas España Street‚ Manila Philippines Abstract Kinematics is the branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of bodies and systems without consideration of the forces that cause the motion. There are four activities done in this experiment. Graphical analysis of human motion‚ where displacement vs. time and velocity vs. time were

Isaac Newton is known to be the single-most influential scientist of the 17th century‚ and a key figure in the scientific revolution. He was born prematurely in 1642‚ in Woolsthorpe‚ England‚ and died in 1727‚ in London. Newton was not expected to survive‚ for he was so small‚ he could fit in a quart pot. Despite this‚ he did not only survive‚ but he went on to make great discoveries that would forever change people’s understanding of the world. From a young age‚ he had shown great interest in a

compression‚ and has intake and exhausted valves (Ham). In 1903 the Ford Motor Company formed. The Ford Motor Company was founded by the Malcomson group with Henry Ford in the lead. Henry Ford was the face of the ford motor and the mind behind the mechanics. Henry Ford was passionate about how cars ran and every year their performance improved. In 1908 they started making the Model T on the assembly line‚ making cars affordable and efficient. The rest‚ as they say‚ is history (Davis). At least that’s

Angular momentum and its properties were devised over time by many of the great minds in physics. Newton and Kepler were probably the two biggest factors in the evolution of angular momentum. Angular momentum is the force which a moving body‚ following a curved path‚ has because of its mass and motion. Angular momentum is possessed by rotating objects. Understanding torque is the first step to understanding angular momentum.<br><br>Torque is the angular "version" of force. The units for torque are

Introduction Isaac newton—English astronomer‚ physicist‚ mathematician‚ and scientist—became interested in science as a boy and even invented several devises while he was still young. He attended Cambridge University and later taught there. In Optics‚ newton published his principles of light and colour‚ and in his mathematical principles of natural philosophy (also known as the principia)‚ he discussed the laws of motion and the theory of gravity. Besides his scientific study‚ he spent much time

Stephen Hawking has been hailed as one of the most brilliant theoretical physicists since Albert Einstein. Hawking was born on January 8‚ 1942‚ which as he likes to point out is the 300th anniversary of Galileo’s death. Hawking originally studied at Oxford University in England studying physics even though he would have preferred math. He moved onto Cambridge University to work on his PhD in cosmology. Hawking’s career has focused upon the cosmic entities known as black holes‚ and has extended

In Raymond Carters’ “Popular Mechanics” the way he foreshadows and uses literal response sets the mood of the text. Carver foreshadows the fact that the inside of the house is full of “darkness”. He also uses literal response with the way the unnamed man replied to his wife. That causes the reader to feel the seriousness of the man. This affects the readers experience because it really makes them feel the intensity of the scene. Carvers’ choice of words set a dark mood for the story. The last sentence
