... We will use a spring scale to measure the size of forces. First you need to calibrate the spring scale. Hold the scale horizontally or vertically just as you will use it when measuring, but without pulling on the hook. Adjust the scale (a sliding cover or nut at the top) so it reads zero. The scale ...

When we are talking about displacement, we are not concerned with the distance travelled by the object, only its direct distance from the starting point. So even if your route to school on Tuesday covered 800 m, your final displacement from ho ...

... An alternative and convenient way (and the one we will use) to find the net force is by changing the vector equation into a scalar equation. Use the sign convention indicated in the diagram above. Forces acting in the positive x-direction are labelled positive and forces acting in the negative x-di ...

... faster a car moves along a highway curve, the greater the risk that the car will skid off the road when making the turn. So the car’s speed v matters. Also, the tighter the turn, the greater is the risk that the car will skid. So the radius r of the curve also matters. In this section we will determ ...
