Physics of Motion
This is the unit for force
Newton
This term describes the amount of matter in an object
M=W/G
Mass
The value that results if you multiply mass and velocity; often used to determine fault in car crashes
Momentum
This is the formula to calculate Speed
Distance รท time?
Forces occurring between objects and the surfaces they are on
Friction
This type of energy describes motion
Kinetic energy
This is the term for the Maximum speed reached by a falling object
Terminal velocity
This is the change to your weight if you were transported to Saturn
Increase
This must act on an object in order for the direction or speed of an object to change
Unbalanced force
A circuit that has a path to power for each lightbulb in it is an example of this type of circuit
Parallel
Work done over a period of time
Power
The attractive force that acts on all objects everywhere all the time
Gravity
Another term for the energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance
Work
The definition of acceleration
The rate of change in velocity
How badly you can get burnt by a substance is determined by this property of the element's ability to hold onto heat
Heat capacity
The unit for work and energy
Joule
The equation for total (net) force
F = m*a
The force of gravity on the object; may be defined as the mass times the acceleration due to gravity
Weight
The difference between Speed and velocity
Direction / vector
Light, radiation, and sound waves are all this type of energy
Electromagnetic or EM
The distance a car travelled if it drove at 40 m/s for 30 minutes
72 km
D = v*t = 40 m/s * 1800 s
D= 72,000 m = 72 km
The mass of an object that is traveling at acceleration of 20m/s^2 and a force of 10,000N
500kg
M= F/a = 10,000 / 20
M= 500kg
These are the two variables or things in a physical space that determine what the acceleration of an object will be
Force and Mass
The force that would be less if you were on the moon
Weight
The amount of kinetic energy we would expect a ball to have at the bottom of a hill if it started with a gravitational potential energy (GPE) of 300J
300 J
