Newtons Law
Often called the Law of Inertia, this law states an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an outside force
Newtons first law
This is the specific type of energy an object has because it is in motion
Kinetic Energy
This force always acts in the direction opposite to the motion of an object.
Friction
This is a change in an object's speed or its direction
Acceleration
When the net force on an object is zero, the forces are said to be this
Balanced
This law is summarized by the formula (Force equals mass times acceleration).
Newton's Second Law
Energy that is stored within an object due to its position or height is known as this.
Potential Energy
This force pulls all objects in the universe toward one another
Gravity
Any push or pull that acts on an object is called this
Force
This type of force is required to cause a change in an object's motion.
unbalanced force
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
Newtons third law
True or False: Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
True
This is the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object’s mass
Weight
If you increase the mass of an object but keep the force the same, the acceleration will do this.
Decrease
A book sitting still on a table is an example of these types of forces
balanced forces
This property of matter describes its resistance to any change in motion
Inertia
As a roller coaster speeds down a hill, this type of energy is being converted into kinetic energy.
Potential Energy (specifically Gravitational Potential Energy)
Scientists measure weight using this unit
Newtons
The sum of all forces acting on an object is known as this type of force
Net Force
If a team in a tug-of-war pulls with 500 N to the left and the other team pulls 500 N to the right, the forces are this.
balanced
A rocket taking off by pushing exhaust gases downward to move upward is an example of this specific Newton's Law.
Newtons Third Law
If you double the velocity of a moving car, its kinetic energy increases by this many times
4
This specific type of friction occurs between two surfaces that are not moving relative to each other
Static friction
Calculate the force needed to accelerate a 5 kg bowling ball at 2/s^s
10 N
A car traveling at a constant speed in a perfectly straight line is experiencing these types of forces.
