Laws of Motion
100
This describes speed in a certain direction.
What is velocity?
100
If you move 100 meters in 20 seconds this is your speed.
What is 5 m/s?
100
A speed boat in the water experiences an acceleration of 1 m/s². The boat's mass is 800 kg. This is the force that the boat's engine is putting out.
What is 800 N?
100
This describes a liquid and a gas.
What is a fluid?
100
This is another name for the first law of motion.
What is Inertia?
200
This is a push or a pull
What is a force?
200
This is the average speed of a car that traveled 500.0 miles in 5 hours?
What is 100 mi/hr?
200
A net force of 20 N causes a mass to accelerate at a rate of 5 m/s2. This is the mass of that object.
What is 4 kg?
200
This is what happens to the pressure the further down you go in water.
What is increase the pressure?
200
This describes an object's tendency to stay in it's position until it is acted upon.
What is Inertia?
300
This type of force allows you to overcome gravity and do things like stand up or pick something up.
What is an unbalanced force?
300
Based on the graph shown on the next tab. Point A's coordinates are (150, 10) and point B is (250, 30). The slope between these two points is this.
What is .2 m/s.
300
If you travel to Michigan at 80 miles/hr and the distance to Michigan is 200 miles. This is how long it will take you to travel to Michigan.
What is 2.5 mi/hr?
300
As the mass of an object increase, this is what happens to the gravitational pull.
What is the gravitational pull increases?
300
This is what the 3rd Law of Motion states.
What is for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction?
400
This measures the rate of motion or the distance covered over time.
What is speed?
400
Based on the graph in the next tab, this is happening between points B and C.
What is stopping?
400
You travel for 5 hours at 100 mi/hr to Ohio. This is the distance you covered at this speed.
What is 500 miles?
400
As the distance of objects increase, this is what happens to the gravitational pull.
What is decreases?
400
The greater the mass of an object, the more of this is needed to accelerate the object.
What is force?
500
This describes a force moving in the opposite direction. Sometimes it can be found when running on carpet and you fall.
What is friction?
500
A force of 60 N is applied to an 10 kg mass. What is the acceleration of the mass?
What is 6 m/s2?
500
A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 10 m/s in 5 seconds. This is his acceleration.
What is 2 m/s2
500
Weight can change, but mass cannot. This is what mass describes.
What is the amount of matter an object has/ space an object takes up?
500
This is an example of this law of motion: When you sit down in a chair, the force you put down on the chair is the same as the force the chair pushes back up.
What is the 3rd law of motion?
