What are the key differences between inertial and non-inertial frames of reference?
Inertial: Newton's laws hold true, non-accelerating. Non-inertial: Newton's laws don't apply, accelerating.
Differentiate between scalar and vector quantities.
Scalar: Magnitude only. Vector: Magnitude and direction.
How do you convert degrees to radians?
Multiply the angle in degrees by ฯ/180.
Describe the process of finding net force.
Identify all forces acting on the object, resolve forces into components, sum the components in each direction (x, y, z), calculate the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector.
What are the differences between inertial and non-inertial frames of reference?
Inertial: Newton's laws hold true, non-accelerating | Non-inertial: Newton's laws don't apply, accelerating or under strong gravity.
What is the difference between rotational velocity and rotational acceleration?
Rotational velocity: How fast an object is rotating | Rotational acceleration: How quickly the rotational velocity changes.
Differentiate between a vector and a scalar quantity.
Vector: Has magnitude and direction | Scalar: Has only magnitude.
