U2L1
the ability to do work
energy
force that results from the interaction of two objects in contact with each other
contact force
the use of force to move an object a certain distance
work
the energy an object has because it is moving
kinetic energy
the speed and direction of an object
velocity
a push or pull
force
the energy that is stored inside an object
potential energy
the movement of energy from one object to another or the change of energy from one form to another
energy transfer
a force between surfaces that slows objects or stops them from moving
friction
force that occurs without objects touching
non-contact force
the combination of potential energy and kinetic energy
mechanical energy
the fact that it is impossible to create or destroy energy-—it just changes from one form to another
conservation of energy
a change in velocity over time
acceleration
The distance an object moves in an amount of time
Speed
