A quantity that has both magnitude and direction
What is a Vector?
An object will remain in its state of motion until an unbalanced force acts on it.
What is Newton's First Law of Motion?
Energy possessed by a body due to its position relative to the Earth or another object.
What is (Gravitational) Potential Energy?
A traumatic brain injury.
What is a Concussion?
The highest or maximum point of a wave oscillation or cycle.
What is a Crest?
9.81 m/s2
What is gravity? or What is g?(Numerical value)
The net force of an object is equal to the objects mass multiplied by its acceleration.
What is Newton's Second Law?
A basic mechanical device used to apply a force in a specific direction to obtain mechanical advantage or leverage.
What is a Simple Machine?
A collision in which there is no net loss of kinetic energy, which results in a perfect rebound.
What is an Elastic Collision?
A form of electromagnetic radiation that is used in cellular communications, heat sources, and their wavelength ranges from one meter to one millimeter.
What is a microwave?
The change in velocity of an object over time.
What is acceleration?
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton's Third Law?
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred.
What is the Law of Conservation of Momentum?
A collision in which there is a loss of kinetic energy, which results in crumple zones of the object.
What is an Inelastic Collision?
c = 3.0 x 108 m/s
What is the Speed of Light?
The variable that denotes vertical displacement, or height.
What is ∆y?
The pulling force transmitted when a cable, rope, wire, or string is tethered by forces acting on opposite ends.
What is Tension Force?
Joules
What is the unit for Energy? What is the unit for Work?
The momentum of a collision in an isolated system is constant. p2 = p1
What is the (Law of) Conservation of Momentum?
The process of light, or electromagnetic radiation, changing direction and changing velocity when traveling from one medium to another.
What is Refraction (of light)?
The movement of an object or body that is only under the influence of gravity
What is Free Fall?
The contact force that surfaces exert to prevent solid objects from passing through each other. It is made possible through the electrons that are in objects.
What is the Normal Force?
The Sum of Kinetic Energy, Gravitational Potential Energy, and/or Elastic Potential Energy in a System.
What is Mechanical Energy?
The effect of force acting over time to change the momentum of an object.
What is Impulse?
The change in frequency of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source.
What is the Doppler Effect?
