Vocabulary
This happens whenever an object changes its motion (speed up, slow down, or change direction).
What is acceleration?
An object's mass affects the rate at which it accelerates.
What is Newton's 2nd Law?
This force simply involves a physical push or pull.
What is an applied force?
If Juniper accelerates a medley of differently massed objects to 2.0 m/s2, this object will require the least amount of force.
What is the smallest massed object?
This is the temporal rate at which an object "covers ground". In other words, it is the distance an object travels over a period of time.
What is speed?
What is Newton's 1st Law?
This force always opposes motion and involves two surfaces sliding against each other.
What is friction force?
If Heima accelerates a group of identically massed objects with varying amounts of net force, this object will accelerate the most.
What is the one receiving the greatest net force?
This is an object's tendency to resist changes in motion.
What is inertia?
An object's acceleration is affected by the magnitude of the net force.
What is Newton's 2nd Law?
This upward force occurs whenever an object is on a solid surface.
What is normal force?
If I have a 30 kilogram object and I want to accelerate it 0.0 m/s2, what must be the Net Force enacted upon it?
What is 0 Newtons?
This is not the amount of "ground covered", but rather, an object's current distance and direction from an object's starting point.
What is displacement?
This law indicates that forces come in pairs, equal in strength but opposite in direction.
What is Newton's Third Law?
This force occurs whenever a rope or string is stretched.
What is tension force?
If I employ 1 Newton of Net Force upon a 1 kilogram object, this will be the acceleration.
What is 1.0 m/s2 ?
Not to be confused with another measurement that uses the same units of measurement, this measurement involves the temporal rate at which an object has been displaced. Oh, and it also involves the direction of displacement.
What is velocity?
According to the Universal Law of Gravitation, the amount of gravity force that the Moon enacts upon the Earth is exactly the same as the amount of gravity force that the Earth enacts upon the Moon. This law of gravity best corresponds with this law of motion.
What is Newton's Third Law?
Not to be confused with air resistance, this force occurs whenever a liquid or gas is in motion due to diffusion. In other words, whenever a liquid or gas is moving from a highly concentrated area to a lower concentrated area (like wind).
What is the pressure-gradient force?
If I employ 100 Newtons of Force upon an object of unknown mass, and it accelerates to 2.0 m/s2, this must be the mass.
What is 50 kilograms?
