Newton's Laws
An object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion remains in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
What is Newton's First Law of Motion?
Energy at rest.
What is potential energy?
The force responsible for pulling objects toward the ground.
What is gravity?
A small negatively charged particle found outside of the nucleus of an atom.
What is an electron?
The terms for the variables in D = VT.
What are distance = velocity x time?
Force in one direction that is greater than a force in the opposite direction.
What is an unbalanced force?
Energy an object possesses due to motion.
What is kinetic energy?
The SMALLEST force is created by low/high mass and small/large distance.
What is low mass and small distance?
What is opposites attract?
A straight parallel line in a D=VT graph.
What is the object stays in place?
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton's third law of motion?
When a ball is dropped from the top of a building potential energy becomes kinetic energy. What Law explains this?
What is the law of conservation of energy?
In a pendulum, when does the mass have the most kinetic energy?
What is the lowest point on the swing?
Atomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom.
What are protons and neutrons?
In a D=VT diagram, a larger _________ means an object is moving faster.
What is a slope?
Two opposite forces that are equal in mass and acceleration.
What are balanced forces?
Energy that moves in waves and is one of the fundamental forces of the universe.
What is electromagnetic energy?
The explanation for why a pendulum continues to swing from one high point to an equal high point.
What is Newton's 3rd Law?
The subatomic particles that move from one object to another to equal out an unbalanced charge.
What are electrons?
The variable on the x-axis of a D=VT chart.
What is time?
Calculate the Force of an object that is moving at 10 m/s with a mass of 10 Kg.
What is 100 Newtons?
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can transfer from one form to another.
What is the law of conservation of energy?
As a pendulum swings, ___________ energy becomes __________ energy and then back to __________ energy.
What is potential, kinetic, and potential.
Name the subatomic particles that match the following charges. + N -
What are proton, neutron and electron?
The total distance an object has travelled from the starting point.
What is displacement?
