A push or a pull
A Force
A force generated between two objects that are touching.
Friction
Something that is repeated.
To pull closer
Attract
A force that pulls toward Earth
Gravity
The process of an object chaning position
Motion
A force that can push or pull without touching.
Magnetism
Problem
To say something that is expected to happen.
Prediction
Forces that cancel each other out and produce no change in the object's motion
Balanced Forces
A push or pull between two objects that are touching
Contact Force
A material that applies magnetism.
Magnet
Something that solves a problem.
Solution
To push away.
Repel
Forces acting on an object that results in a change of motion
Unbalanced Forces
A substance that reductes friction.
Lubricant
Parts of a magnet where the magnetism is the strongest.
Magnetic poles.
Which force generates heat?
Friction
What device swings back and forth in a predictable pattern?
A pendulum.
What are balanced and unbalanced forces? (Complete sentence comparing the two.)
Balanced forces are equal forces acting on an object, while unbalanced forces have one force that is stronger than the other.
What is the force called Friction, and how does it affect an object's movement?
Friction is the force between the surfaces of two objects that are touching. The higher the friction, the less an object moves; the lower the friction, the more an object moves.
Can we predict the motion of an object that moves in regular patterns?
Yes, because the object will follow the same path.
What was the name of the stone that first taught people about Magnetism?
The Lodestone.
What types of materials are attracted to magnets? And, what types of materials are not attracted to magnets?
Magnets contain metal and attract other metal objects.
Materials that do not contain metal are not attracted to magnets.
