SOS -- Questions about mass, acceleration and velocity

Click For Summary

Homework Help Overview

The original poster is struggling to understand the connections between force, momentum, angular momentum, kinetic energy, potential energy, and their relationships to mass, acceleration, and velocity. The subject area involves fundamental concepts in physics, particularly mechanics.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Conceptual clarification

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Some participants suggest that the original poster start by writing out mathematical equivalents of the terms in question, particularly referencing F=ma. There is a focus on defining the relationships in terms of mass, acceleration, and velocity.

Discussion Status

The discussion is currently focused on encouraging the original poster to articulate their understanding and attempts at the problem. Guidance has been offered regarding the need to show prior efforts before receiving further assistance.

Contextual Notes

The original poster expresses a lack of confidence in their understanding of the subject matter and requests help without judgment. There are also reminders about homework guidelines that require showing attempts at problem-solving.

Homework Statement
how force, momentum, Angular momentum, kinetic and potential energy are linked with respect to mass, acceleration and velocity
Relevant Equations
N/A
Please some one help! I am about to go stir crazy. I am really struggling to answer a the following question...describe how force, momentum, Angular momentum, kinetic and potential energy are linked with respect to mass, acceleration and velocity.

Its probably really easy but science is not my strong point so please do not judge me. Thank you in advance for any help.

According to the homework guidelines you need to show us your best attempt at solving a problem yourself.

What do you know about these quantities? Have they been covered in your physics course?
 
I would suggest starting by writing out mathematical equivalents of the various terms you are asking about. Low hanging fruit is F=ma. Define all the questions in terms of m, a, and V and see where you get to.

Welcome to PF.

As has been mentioned, you need to show your efforts to work on the problem before we can provide tutorial help. Please start a new thread in this forum and show your best efforts to start listing the relationships that you are asking about. Thank you; this thread will stay closed.
