    What defines inertia?

    Objects resist changes in their state of motion.

    What is the formula for force?

    Force equals mass times acceleration.

    How do action and reaction forces work?

    They are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

    What characterizes linear motion?

    Movement along a straight path with defined position and velocity.

    What distinguishes rotational motion?

    Involves angular position and torque.

    What are the components of projectile motion?

    Vertical and horizontal movements combined.

    What is oscillatory motion?

    Periodic motion like that of springs and pendulums.

    What is curvilinear motion?

    Motion that follows a curved path.

    What is the net force?

    The sum of all forces acting on an object.

    How does applied force affect motion?

    It can change the object's speed or direction.

    What role does gravity play in motion?

    It acts as a force that pulls objects toward the Earth.

    What is the effect of friction?

    It resists the motion of objects sliding against each other.

    How does normal support force work?

    It acts perpendicular to the surface an object rests on.

    What are real-world applications of dynamics in aerospace?

    They involve lift, thrust, and stability for flight.

    How is dynamics applied in automotive design?

    It ensures traction, handling, and crash safety.

    What is a key takeaway from studying dynamics?

    It allows for prediction, measurement, and design in various fields.

    What is the significance of vibration control in structures?

    It enhances stability during seismic events.
