Topographic Maps
study of the shapes and features of landforms
What is a Topographic Map
Distance over time
What is speed
A push or pull
What is force
An object at rest or in motion will remain at rest or in motion until acted on by an unbalanced force
What is Law of Inertia (Newton's First Law)
Energy of motion
What is kinetic energy
show the shape of landforms at different elevations
What are contour lines
What is velocity
Equal and opposite
What are balanced forces
F=MA
What is Newton's 2nd Law
Energy that is stored
What is potential energy
Contour lines are farther apart
What is a gradual slope
Speeding up, slowing down or changing direction
What is accleration
forces that cause objects to accelerate
What are unbalanced forces
forces are equal and opposite, but not balanced
What is Newton's 3rd Law of Action-Reaction
what is mechanical energy
difference in elevation between contour lines
What is contour interval
If Adrian needed to be at his grandmother's house in 3 hours and it was 150 miles away, at what speed wold he need to drive to get there?
What is 50 miles/hour
opposes the motion of objects that are sliding past each other
What is friction
When it comes to mass and acceleration, these objects are harder to accelerate
What are objects with greater masses
what is when they are the highest
subtracting one elevation from the other
What is finding the difference in elevation
A family is driving to a nearby city. If they travel an average of 68 miles per hour for 3.2 hours how many miles have they gone?
What is 217.6
Force that opposes the motion of objects moving through the air
What is air resistance
What is Newton's First Law
the point when objects have the least kinetic energy
