Speed and Velocity
Acceleration
Force
Friction
Gravity
100
The measure of distance divided by time
What is speed?
100
The rate that the velocity changes
What is acceleration?
100
This is a push or pull
What is force?
100
This is the type of friction that occurs when an object comes in contact with a gas or liquid
What is fluid friction?
100
The amount of matter an object is made of
What is mass?
200
This is calculated in the same way as speed but requires a direction.
What is velocity?
200
(final velocity - starting velocity) divided by this is the formula for acceleration
What is time it takes to change velocity?
200
This is the SI unit for force
What is a Newton?
200
This is the type of friction that occurs when an object rubs on another surface
What is sliding friction?
200
The measure of gravitational force on an object
What is weight?
300
In order to say an object is in motion, you must have a stationary object. This is the name of the stationary object.
What is a reference point?
300
A negative acceleration means that an object is slowing down. This is the name for it.
What is decceleration?
300
This is the combination of forces
What is net force?
300
This is the type of friction that occurs when an object moves on wheels or over a round object
What is rolling friction?
300
This is the man credited for the discovery of gravity
Who is Sir Issac Newton?

A parrot was flying from the pirate flag to the plank of the ship. The distance between the flag and plank was 12 yards. If it took the parrot 8 seconds, this is the speed of the parrot.
What is 1.5 yards/second?
400
Miah decided to steal an airplane. She took off and 320 seconds later she is flying at a velocity of 24 miles/second north (to escape to Canada). This is the acceleration of Miah and her stolen plane.
What is 0.075 miles/second/second?
400
Logan was pushing his shopping cart around Hartzell's heading south. All of a sudden he collided with Mady and her shopping cart as she was heading north. Logan was pushing with a force of 56N and Mady was pushing with 42N. This is the net force.
What is 14N?
400
This is the type of friction that occurs when an object is not in motion
What is static friction?
400
The gravitational force does this when the masses of the object increase
What is increase?
500
Tugboat the turtle was trying to run away from his owner. He somehow escaped his tank and was ready to go west. Tugboat took 30 minutes to travel 6 feet. This is the velocity of Tugboat.
What is 0.2 feet/minute west?
500
Colin was riding his scooter down Main street at a speed of 12 m/s when he realized that he forgot his cat at home. He quickly hit the breaks and 4 seconds later he was only going 3 m/s. This is his acceleration.
What is -2.25m/s/s?
500
Noah Eaton and Cole did a fist bump. Noah used a force of 12N and Cole used 12N, too. This is the type of force the boys used
What is a balanced force?
500
A flamingo is flying over Warren with a force of 34N. The wind is blowing on the flamingo with a force of 7N creating an example of this
What is fluid friction?
500
The gravitational force does this when the distance between the objects increases
What is decreases?
