Define motion
the phenomenon in which an object changes its position.
Define displacement
the moving of something from its place or position
Define weight
a body's relative mass or the quantity of matter contained by it, giving rise to a downward force; the heaviness of a person or thing.
Define momentum
the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity.
What is newtons?
The newton is the International System of Units derived unit of force
Define speed
Define acceleration
rate at which velocity changes with time
What is projectile motion?
Projectile motion is a form of motion experienced by an object or particle that is projected near the Earth's surface and moves along a curved path under the action of gravity only
What is free fall?
downward movement under the force of gravity only.
What will fall faster a golf ball or bowling ball?
Bowling ball?
Define velocity
The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference
What is friction?
the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another
What day was Isaac newton born?
Christmas day 1642
What is terminal velocity?
Terminal velocity is the maximum velocity attainable by an object as it falls through a fluid.
Who is newtons named after?
Issac Newton
Define inertia
a property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force
What is Mass?
a coherent, typically large body of matter with no definite shape.
At what age was newton forced to quit school and become a farmer?
16
What is frame of reference?
a set of criteria or stated values in relation to which measurements or judgments can be made.
In what year was Isaac newton knighted?
1705
What is newtons first law?
A body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion unless it is acted upon by an external force
What is newtons second law?
the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it
What is newtons third law?
The tendency of all objects is to resist in any change of motion
What is acceleration due to gravity?
The numerical value for the acceleration of gravity is most accurately known as 9.8 m/s/s.
Who founded inertia?
Galileo Galilei
