Mechanical ASVABforce - ANS Changes the velocity of an object
friction - ANS Acts in opposition to motion, causes effort work to be larger than
load work
equilibrium - ANS Net force is zero when velocity is not changing
viscous drag - ANS Like friction, however increases with speed, varies by shape
gravity - ANS Causes objects to fall
mass - ANS Amount of substance
weight - ANS Force of gravity on a mass
lift - ANS Caused by higher speed air flow over a lower speed air flow
camber - ANS When a surface is curved
airfoil - ANS Shape of a wing, fan or propeller
leading edge - ANS Part that meets airflow first
upwash - ANS Airstream that's directed upward
trailing edge - ANS Where upper and lower airflow meet
downwash - ANS Airstream directed downward
thrust - ANS One of four airplane forces which goes forward
drag - ANS One of four airplane forces which goes backward
, elastic recoil - ANS The "reaction" force when pushing on a solid
tension - ANS Rope under a force
tension rule - ANS Tension is the same throughout
buoyancy - ANS If the weight of an object is less than the weight of the fluid it
displaces, it will rise
negative buoyancy - ANS If the weight of an object is greater than the weight of
the fluid it displaces
fluid - ANS Air is one
action and reaction - ANS Forces exist only in pairs
components of force - ANS The smaller the angle, the larger the effective force
component of force rule - ANS Only the component action in the direction the
sled is going does work
inclined plane - ANS Weight of the stroller acts parallel and normal to the surface
inclined plane rule - ANS Total force to keep stroller moving is equal to parallel
component plus friction
parallel - ANS Going along the surface
normal - ANS Going into the surface
simple machines - ANS Pulleys, levers, jacks, hydraulics, vises, ramps, vises,
cranks, gears
pulley - ANS With single, effort is half the load and effort distance is twice the
load distance
load - ANS Object being lifted
load distance - ANS Distance lifted object moves
