SECTION A

QUESTION 1: GENERAL

1.1 Newton's third law: For every action there is an equal and opposite
reaction.

1.2 Hooke's law: For an elastic object the strain is proportional to the stress

a
producing it.

.z
1.3 Stress: The ability of an object to resist the effects of an external force.

1.4 Pascal's law: When pressure is exerted on the surface of a liquid, this force is
transmitted with the same intensity through the liquid in all directions.

o
1.5 Moment of inertia: The moment of inertia of a body about an axis is the sum

.c
of the products of mass elements and the squares of their distances from
the axis.
