Force and Motion
A push or a pull on an object that influences its motion.
What is Force
The upward force exerted by a surface, like a table, to support the weight of an object.
What is Normal Force?
This law states that an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force
What is the first law? or the law of inertia
The specific amount of "stuff" or matter inside an object
What is mass?
This type of energy is "stored" or based on an object's position.
Potential Energy
This term simply describes an object changing its direction or position
What is motion?
The force created by rubbing two surfaces together; it can be helpful or destructive.
What is friction?
: According to the 3rd Law, for every action, there is am........
What is an equal and opposite reaction?
The force pushing down on an object, often confused with mass.
What is weight?
This is the energy of an object that is currently in motion.
What is Kinetic Energy?
This measurement represents how fast or slow something is moving.
What is Speed?
The type of force found in a cable or wire that is anchored at both ends.
What is Tension force?
This law is summarized by the formula F=m*a
What is the second law?
On Earth, the constant used for gravity (g) in the weight formula is this numerical value
What is 9.8 m/s2
As an object falls and its Potential Energy (PE) decreases, this happens to its Kinetic Energy (KE)
What is increses?
This is the rate at which an object's speed or velocity changes over time.
What is acceleration?
The force produced by a compressed or stretched coil.
What is spring force?
If you increase the mass of an object but want to keep the acceleration the same, you must increase this
What is Force?
Use the formula W= m*g to find the weight of a 5 kg bowling ball.
What is 49N?
Calculate the Potential Energy of a 10 kg rock sitting on a cliff 10 meters high.
what is 980J
Use the manipulated formula to find the time it takes for a runner to travel 100 meters at a speed of 5 m/s.
A person pushes a heavy box across the floor. This specific type of force is applied by one person to another object.
What is Applied force?
Use the manipulated formula for the 2nd Law to find the mass of an object that has a force of 50 N and an acceleration of 5 m/s2
10kg
An object weighs 196 N. Use the manipulated formula to find its mass.
What is 29 kg
This is the full formula for Kinetic Energy, which involves mass and velocity.
What is KE=1/2mv2
