1. Realm of physics
SI units – fundamental – kg, s, m, amp, mole, K
-derived – Newton composed of kg, s, m
- watt, joule, coulomb, volt, ohm
Kg2 lb myard N apple
Orders of magnitude – powers of ten
2. In the study of the motion of fluids we often refer to their
“viscosity” (symbol η). The following formula gives a method
of measuring viscosity
F = 6πηrv
F represents a force
r represents a distance
v represents a velocity
This means that the units of viscosity (η) are
A. Ns-1m-2
B. Nm-2s
C. N-1m2s-1
D. kgm-2s
3. Error
•systematic - caused by flawed devices, uncalibrated,
cannot be reduced by more trials, affects the
accuracy
Evidence: a graph that should hit the origin is off
2) random - affects the precision, more trials can
help this
Evidence – points are scattered around the best fit
line
5. Uncertainty in mass is 5%, speed is 10%
What is the uncertainty in momentum (p=mv) and
kinetic energy (1/2 mv2)?
The lengths of the sides of a 5 0 ± 0 ·5 m m
rectangular plate are measured,
and the diagram shows the 2 5 ± 0 ·5 m m
measured values with their
uncertainties.
Which one of the following would be the best
estimate of the percentage uncertainty in the
calculated area of the plate?
A. ±0·02%
B. ±1%
C. ±3%
D. ±5%
6. Vector Scalar
Displacement Distance
Velocity Speed
Acceleration Mass
Force Energy
Momentum Temp
Any field strength Voltage
Adding and subtracting – tip to tail
Resolving into components
7. Which one of the following is not a
vector quantity?
A. velocity
B. work
C. weight
D. acceleration.
