________________ is a push or a pull.
Force
What is the variable we change or manipulate?
Independent Variable
The first law is also known as the law of _________?
What unit is force measured in?
Newtons
Is the test open note?
Yes
______________ means two things coming into contact.
Collision
What is the variable that stays constant?
Newton's Third Law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite ____________?
Reaction
When does temporary deformation begin to occur?
At the moment of first contact.
What is the number one rule in the classroom?
Safety first.
__________________ is a change in the shape or size of an object
Deformation
What is the variable that changes as a result of the experiment; it is the variable we measure
Dependent Variable
Do action-reaction forces happen on the same object or different objects?
Different objects
If a car collides with a bike, which object experiences a greater amount of force?
Neither - they both experience the same amount.
Where in our notebook is where we list out what page each lab/activity is on?
The Table of Contents
________________ is the energy of motion.
Kinetic energy
On a graph, what is the name of the vertical axis?
The y axis
What is the formula for Newton's Second Law?
F = ma (Force = mass x acceleration)
What does the arrow on a free body diagram indicate?
Direction and amount of force
Where in our lab notebook do we write down what we have figured out about our questions?
The Progress Tracker
_________ is the maximum amount of stress a material can withstand before permanent deformation?
Elastic limit
Which axis on a graph represents the independent variable?
The x axis (or horizontal axis).
Which of Newton's laws explains why, when we suddenly stop, items in the car will fall over or spill?
Newton's First Law (an object in motion will stay in motion or an object at rest will stay at rest unless an external force acts upon it).
Why do phones break when we drop them?
The material the phone is made of is deformed past the elastic limit during a collision due to the forces acting on the phone.
Name one of the classroom norms listed in our notebook from Open Sci Ed.
