Equations
100
The ability to do work or cause change.
What is energy?
100
A push or pull.
What is force?
100
It states, "an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force."
What is Newton's First Law of Motion?
100

What is 15kg?
100
d = s x t
What is the equation for distance?
200
The rate at which velocity changes with time.
What is acceleration?
200
A force that two surfaces exert on each other when they rub against each other.
What is friction?
200
It states, "the acceleration of an object by a force is inversely proportional to the mass of the object and directly proportional to the force."
