100

This is the name of the order of motion: displacement, velocity, and acceleration.

What is the kinematic chain?

100

This law says that an object in motion (or at rest) will stay in motion (or at rest) unless acted on by a force.

What is Newton's 1st Law?

100

This law is an inverse square law and relates to the attraction of two masses.

What is Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation?

100

These are the units of energy.

What are Joules?
100

This law says that the change in heat plus the change in work is equal to the total internal energy of the system.

What is the first law of thermodynamics?

200

This quantity has both a magnitude and a direction.

What is a vector?

200

This law relates the force to the acceleration of an object mathematically in the form of F = ma.

What is Newton's 2nd Law?

200

This force is responsible for slowing down a moving object.

What is kinetic friction?

200

True or False: Force is the rate of change with respect to time of the momentum.

What is true?
200

This law says that the entropy of a closed system is never negative.

What is the second law of thermodynamics?

300

This is a measure of an object's velocity over an entire duration.

What is average velocity?

300

This law says that forces come in equal and opposite (direction) pairs.

What is Newton's 3rd Law?

300

This force is responsible for keeping something at rest so that it resists motion.

What is static friction?

300

This type of momentum is rotational and is conserved when there are no external torques acting on the system.

What is angular momentum?

300

This law says that achieving a temperature of absolute zero is impossible.

What is the third law of thermodynamics?
400

This is the value of the acceleration due to gravity.

What is 9.8 m/s^2?

400

This type of reference frame is one that isn't accelerating.

What is a non-inertial reference frame?

400

This "force" is responsible for the outward feeling that you experience when traveling in a circle.

What is centrifugal force?

400

True or False: The angular momentum is zero for an object headed directly toward or away from you.

What is true? If an object isn't making an angle with respect to you, it doesn't have angular momentum.

400
True or False: A refrigerator is the opposite of a heat engine.
What is true? (See the slide for a great picture of this.)
500

True or False: A dropped bullet hits the ground at the same time as a fired bullet shot level with the ground.

What is true? This is because the only force acting on the bullet in both situations is just gravity.
500

True or False: Centripetal force is a real force.

What is False? Centripetal force lacks agency. It is the result of an object moving in a circle (hence its velocity changes directions).
500

This is the "force" responsible for feeling heavier or lighter in an accelerating reference frame.

What is the apparent weight?

500

This type of force leads to conservation of energy.

What is a conservative force?
500

This is the name of Nick's dog.
