Motion Graphs
What is stopped/not moving?
An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
What is Newton's 1st Law?
The energy of moving particles that produces heat
What is thermal
The definition of a force.
What is a push or pull?
You calculate this by dividing the total distance by the total time.
What is average speed?
A straight, diagonal line.
You run into your friend while skating and both of you fall in opposite directions. This is an example of which law of motion?
What is Newton's 3rd Law?
The potential energy based on distance from the ground.
What is gravitational potential energy?
Unit of measurement for force
What is Newtons?
The average speed of a car that traveled 10 meters in 10 minutes, then stopped for 20 minutes, then continued 30 meters in 10 minutes.
What is 10 m/min?
A curved line on a graph.
What is acceleration?
The definition of Inertia.
What is the natural tendency of objects to keep on doing what they're doing?
The energy conversion that occurs in plants during photosynthesis.
What is light/radiant to chemical?
What is the total forces acting on an object?
The force on a 50 kg object accelerating at 2 m/s2.
What is 100N?
What to look for to see if a constant speed line is going fast.
The equation for Newton's Second Law.
What is F=MxA?
What is elastic potential energy?
These forces cancel each other out and do not affect an object's motion.
What are balanced forces?
The variable shown on the X-axis on a motion graph.
What is Time?
The reaction force to the action force of you pushing on the ground to jump.
What is the ground pushes back?
As you roll down a hill, your kinetic energy _____ and your potential energy _____.
What is INCREASES and DECREASES?
These forces occur when the net force is more than zero.
What are unbalanced forces?
The average acceleration of a bicycle that started at the top of a hill with a speed of 4 m/s and ended at the bottom of the hill with a speed of 8 m/s if the entire ride took 2 seconds.
What is 2 m/s2?
