Balanced Force
What is it called when two equal forces are pushing on opposite sides of an object?
100
This happens when two objects in motion strike each other.
What is collide?
100
This is the energy an object possesses when it is sitting still.
What is potential energy?
100
This is the total amount of matter that an object possesses.
What is mass?
100
The speed of an object in a given direction.
What is velocity?
200
Net Force
What is the sum of all forces that are acting on an object?
200
This is the term for an object that stays still or moving in a straight line, unless it is acted upon by another force.
What is inertia?
200
This is the energy an object possesses when it is in motion.
What is kinetic energy?
200
The greater an object's ___________, the harder it would be to push it up an incline.
What is weight?
200
An object that is moving faster than another object is said to have more ____________ energy.
What is kinetic?
300
Unbalanced Force
What is it called when there is unequal force being applied to the sides of an object?
300
The greater the ______________ (resistance due to gravity), the harder it is for an object to be moved.
What is friction?
300
This is what happens when an object changes from potential to kinetic energy.
What is transfer?
300
______________ is the force that pulls objects downward towards the center of the Earth (or other astronomical bodies).
What is gravity?
300
An object that has a greater mass than another object needs more force to gain ______________ than the object with a smaller mass.
What is momentum?
400
Force
What is the pressure exerted on an object?
400
An object that is moving is said to be in ____________.
What is motion?
400
This type of energy would be found in a spring that's pulled tight, holding up a heavy object.
What is potential energy?
400
Moving an object that has a lot of mass up an ____________ would be more difficult than moving it down a decline.
What is an incline?
400
As an object gains momentum, it moves at a greater ______________.
What is speed or velocity?
500
This type of slope requires less FORCE to move an object down it.
What is a decline?
500
The greater an objects _________ (total amount of matter), the harder it is to move.
What is mass?
500
This type of energy would be found in a spring that is released from holding up a heavy object.
What is kinetic energy?
500
An object with a lower weight will have less _____________ than a heavier object.
What is friction?
500
The more ______________ a force is on an object, the more likely that item is to move and gain momentum.
What is unbalanced?
