Dynamics Test Review Dynamics: The study of forces that cause motion Types of Forces: can accelerate‚ deform‚ rotate measured in Newtons (N). Force of Gravity: force of attraction between all matter Force of Friction: force that resists relative motion of two surfaes. Always parallel to surface in contact Normal force: force of contact that exists between two surfaces Applied Force: the push or pull Tension Force: the force of a rope or a chain (can only pull) Air resistance: caused by a

Chapter 9 IMPULSE AND MOMENTUM COLLISION PROBLEMS A tennis ball and racket collision: a microscopic view COLLISION: FORCE VS TIME GRAPH A large force exerted during a small interval of time is called an impulsive force. LINEAR MOMENTUM The product of the particle’s mass and velocity is called the linear momentum p = mv As a vector quantity‚ the momentum can be represented in terms of its components: px= mvx py= mvy ALTERNATIVE FORM OF NEWTON’S SECOND LAW F = ma = m(dv/dt) =

Cranial Nerves The brain and spinal cord (CNS) are connected to parts of the body by nerves and cell bodies called the peripheral nervous system. The PNS contains all of the nervous tissue outside the brain and spinal cord. Afferent (sensory) nerve fibers-conduct nerve impulses toward the CNS Efferent (motor) nerve fibers-conduct nerve pulses away Sensory Somatic System – Carries nerve impulses from the senses to the CNS and also carries the impulses to the skeletal muscles and glands

Site Plan | I. Neurons/nerve cells A neuron is a cell specialized to conduct electrochemical impulses called nerve impulses or action potentials. Neuron is the main cellular component of the nervous system‚ a specialized type of cell that integrates electrochemical activity of the other neurons that are connected to it and that propagates that integrated activity to other neurons. They are the basic information processing structures in the CNS.
