100

What is a balanced force?

It is when two forces are the same strength but act in opposite directions
100

Define: Relationship

Ex. Describe the relationship between blah blah blah

The correspondence between two variables

100

What is the equation of Newtons Second Law?

Force= Mass x Acceleration

100

What is Kinetic Energy?

Energy that an object possesses due to its motion 

100

What is Newton's Third Law?

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

200

What is an unbalanced force?

A force that changes the motion or speed of an object

200

Define: Force

an influence that can change the motion of an object

push or pull

200

What is Newtons Second Law? 

The acceleration and net force are directly proportional and there is an inversely proportional relationship between acceleration and mass. 

F= ma

200

Describe the relationship between Kinetic Energy and Mass

They are directly proportional. When mass is doubled, KE is doubled
200
Explain how Newtons Third Law relates to rockets launching

The combustion force pushes toward the ground which pushed the rocket upward

300

What is Newtons First Law?

An object in motion will stay in motion until acted upon by another force/ An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by another force. 
300
Define: Directly Proportional

Related so that as one increases, so does the other or when one decreases, so does the other

300

How are force and mass related in Newtons Second Law?

Force and Mass are directly proportional to one another

300

Describe the relationship between Kinetic energy and Speed

Kinetic Energy depends on the speed squared

300

How does Newtons Third Law explain how we walk?

When we step our foot exerts a backward force on the ground and the ground exerts a forward force on our feet which pushes us forward.

400

Use Newtons First Law to explain what would happen if an astronaut pushed off a space station.

If an astronaut pushed off the space station they would remain in motion forever unless acted upon by another force. 

400

What is a line graph and why is it used?

A line graph shows the relationship between two variables like KE and Mass. It is data points connected to show the relationship.

400

How are acceleration and mass related to one another in Newtons Second Law? 

They are inversely proportional

400

What is potential energy?

Energy that is stored or conserved
400

While driving down the road, a firefly strikes the windshield of a bus and makes a big mess right in front of the driver! The firefly hit the bus and the bus hit the firefly. Which of the two forces are greater: the force on the firefly or the force on the bus?

Neither! The forces are equal and opposite!

500

Describe an experiment you could do to prove Newtons First Law. Make sure you use the law to explain and provide evidence.

Miss Lloyd's choice :) 

500

Define: Inversely Proportional

Related so that when one increases, the other decreases.

500

If Billy has two boxes of the same size, one full of bricks and the other full of feathers, they have to be pushed 20 feet. How can you use Newtons Second Law to describe what Billy needs to do with the boxes?

Billy will need to apply more force to push the box of bricks than the box of feathers.

500

Describe an experiment you could conduct to prove the relationship between mass and kinetic energy and speed and kinetic energy 

Miss Lloyds decision :)
