Who is Aristotle?
__________is the product of an object’s mass and its velocity
What is momentum?
_______is a measure of the inertia of an object
What is Mass?
Is the force that causes a 1-kilogram mass to accelerate at a rate of 1 meter per second each second (1 m/s2).
What is a Newton?
Studied how gravity produces constant acceleration
Who is Galileo?
whenever one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object.

is a force that opposes the motion of objects that touch as they move past each other and the four types.
What is Friction and sliding, fluid, static, and rolling?
__________ the state of motion of an object does not change as long as the net force acting on the object is zero
What is Newton’s first law of motion?

What is weight?
_________ is the constant velocity of a falling object when the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity
What is Terminal velocity?
According to_____________ , the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force acting on it divided by the object’s mass
