100
This is the unit used for force.
What is a Newton
100
This is the type of energy that describes movement.
What is kinetic energy.
100
This describes the distance between the peaks of a wave.
What is wavelength.
100
This is how fast a ball will be falling after one second on Earth.
What is 9.8 or 10 meters/second/second
100
This is the equation for work.
What is Force X Distance.
200
This force often lessens the amount of output work vs. input work (acts against what you're trying to do)
What is Friction.
200
This type of energy is often a bi-product of friction.
What is Heat.
200
This describes how often a wave's peaks hit you per second.
What is frequency.
200
This is the distance a ball will fall in three seconds on Earth.
What is 45 meters.
200
This is how much a boy would have to weigh if he was 2 meters from the middle of a teeter totter and balanced on a with a 300 N boy who was 3 meters away from the middle.
What is 450 Newtons.
300
This is the equation for force.
What is Force = mass x acceleration
300
Potential energy depends on these two factors.
What is Mass and height. (also accept gravity if explained that it could be on a different planet)
300
This color on the rainbow has the most energy.
What is violet.
300
This is the time it will take a ball to fall 125 meters. t= square root of (2d/a)
What is five seconds.
300
If you squeeze a pair of plyers with a force of 2 Newtons and the handles move 5 cm, this is the amount of force that will be applied to the other end if the other end only moves 1 cm.
What is 10 Newtons.
400
This is the amount of force needed to accelerate a 3kg box at 2m/s/s
What is 6 Newtons.
400
This color has the least amount of energy.
What is red.
400
This is why sound cannot be heard in space.
What is there is no medium for the wave to travel through.
400
If a ball is thrown off a 80 meter tall building with an x velocity of 10 meters per second, this is how far away the person should be standing from the bottom of the building in order to catch it.
What is 40 meters away.
400
This is the amount of pulleys needed to move an 800 N box with 200 N of pulling force.
What is four.
500
This occurs when the force of drag is equal to the downward force of gravity.
What is terminal velocity.
500
This is the amount of energy used to push a box with 2 Newtons of force for 2 meters.
What is 4 Joules.
500
This is the behavior of a plant moving toward a light source.
What is phototropism.
500
I throw a ball in the air and the ball lands in my friend's hands three seconds later. My friend is standing 60 meters away. This is how fast the ball was going when it left my hand.
What is 25 meters per second.
500
This is the efficiency of a machine with a work output of 900 Joules and a work input of 1,000 Joules.
What is 90 percent.
