Measured in Watts (W)
What is power?
Applied when someone is pushing against a wall
What is Newton's Third Law?
This recipe calculates mass by dividing force by acceleration.
What is m= F/a ?
This is change in velocity divided by the time it takes for the change to occur
What is Acceleration?
Two people push a sled in the same direction. One person applies a force of 10 N, and the other applies a force of 5 N.
What is 15 N?
Measured in newtons (N)
What is force?
Why do two roller skaters push off from each other and move in opposite directions?
What is Newton's Third Law?
This formula creates energy transferred by a force moving an object a certain distance.
What is E=Fd?
A car accelerates from 0 m/s to 30 m/s in 5 seconds. The car's acceleration is
What is 6 m/s2
If a person pushes a sled with 40 N to the left and another person pushes the same sled with 6 N to the right
What is 34 N left?
Combination of all forces acting on an item
What is net force?
It is harder to push a heavy object than a light object
What is Newton's First Law?
A 600 N force acts on a 150 kg object. What is the object's acceleration?
What is 4 m/s²?
This is the gap an object travels per unit of time.
What is speed?
A tug-of-war team pulls with a force of 400 N to the right, while the opposing team pulls with 550 N to the left
What is 50N left?
Measured in Joules (J)
What is work?
When an object accelerates more quickly down a steep hill than on a shallow one?
What is Newton's First Law?
This procedure calculates force by multiplying mass and acceleration
What is F=ma?
A car moves 400 meters north in 20 seconds. This is the car’s velocity
What is 20 m/s north?
A 15 kg box is being pushed to the right with a force of 70 N. The box experiences a frictional force of 15 N to the left.
What is 55 N right?
Amount of matter in an item
What is mass?
When you feel a car jerk when it stops outta nowhere
What is the Law of Inertia?
If a force of 80 N moves an object 5 meters, how much work is done?
What is 400 J?
Speed in a set direction
What is velocity?
A person pushes a car with a force of 1000 N to the right, and the car has a 700 N resistance due to friction.
What is 300N right?
