What is 'Semicircular Canals, or The inner Ear'?
Pg 245, think about this section.
With mass and weight being different, weight equals the affect of gravity on an object while mass equals this.
What is 'The amount of an object (how many molecules of it)'?
Pg 251, Weight and Mass section.
When a rocket is burning fuel, this is the reaction acting on the rocket that is occurring and is an example of Newton's Third Law.
What is 'Gases pushing (the rocket)'?
Pg 256, first paragraph
This type of friction opposes the start, or initiation, of objects to move.
What is 'Static friction'?
Pg 230, BTD & figure 7.8
Acceleration and Velocity are both considered this kind of force. (Remember the measurement of quantities in change)
What is 'A vector quantity'?
Pg 227, Combining forces, first paragraph.
This is the SI (Standard Scientific Unit) for force.
What is 'A Newton'?
Pg 226, Force section, 3rd paragraph.
Because force is a vector, an object's acceleration will always be in this direction.
What is 'The same direction (as the force)'?
Pg 246, 2nd paragraph.
Critical to Newton's Third Law, the equal and opposite reactions do not occur on this.
