net force

200

The energy of motion is...

Kinetic Energy

200

What is the law of action-reaction?

2.0 seconds

200
Define velocity
The speed of an object with a specific direction


example: 5 mph WEST

300

True or False: The graphs below are showing the similar movement just represented differently.

True, they both show speeding up/acceleration

300

Determine if the forces in the image below are balanced or unbalanced. 

UNBALANCED

Rollercoasters are popular attractions at amusement parks. At which position would you experience the most kinetic energy in the diagram below?


Position b would experience the most kinetic energy.

300

What is the Law of Inertia mean?

An object at rest stays at rest until an unbalanced force acts on it. 

An object in motion stays in motion until an unbalanced force acts on it.
