Kinematics & Dynamics: Exam #1 Equation Sheet PDF

Preview

Summary

First Midterm Equations Sheet. For reference, ME230 at UW is the second-level mechanics course that physical science engineers take (think intro level physics + vector calculus).

This exam covered only kinematics. Types of Kinematics Covered:
- Constant Acceleration
- Rectil...

Description

Equations Sheet Constant Acceleration

Rectilinear Motion (Rectangular Coordinates)

Normal and Tangential Coordinates

Cylindrical Coordinates ,

3D Rotation

Relative Motion (shouldn’t need for exam 1, but in case)

Non-Dynamics (but helpful) Equations (s = “arc length”, 𝜃 in radians) (aka don’t use sin & cos wrong) Reminders - If a variable is given as a function, that function has a derivative - If a variable is given as a discrete value (e.g. at ), then its derivative is either… - Given (e.g. at ) - Zero (if variable is specified constant) - Not important - (No coordinate system given) + (Vectors not asked for) = Don’t use vectors in your answer (e.g. use at & an, not ) - Don’t overcomplicate things. If you think something is right & the math checks out, guess what? It’s probably right. - Don’t panic, just calm down. You own this....
