The speed and direction of an object's motion
What is velocity?
An object will not change motion unless a force acts upon it.
What is Newton's 1st Law of Motion?
Distance traveled per unit of time
What is speed?
Bobby and Jeanie are sitting opposite each other on a ride that is moving clockwise at a constant speed. Bobby tosses a piece of candy to Jeanie. From her point of view, whae will the candy land?
What is on her right?
If a force acts consistently on a stationary object, the object will
What is accelerate in the direction of the force?
Friction
What is a force that opposes the motion of a body across a surface or through a gas or a liquid.
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton's 3rd Law of Motion?
inertia
What is an object's resistance to a change in motion?
If an object is moving at a constant velocity, it means that
What is not net force is acting on it?
If a force acting on a moving object stops acting, and no other force acts on it, the object will
What is keep moving in the same direction?
A change in position of an object
What is motion?
Newton's 1st Law of Motion
What is an object will not change motion unless a force acts upon it?
A change in the position of an object compared to another object
What is motion?
If a force acts constantly on a stationary object, the object will
What is accelerate in the direction of the force?
In the absence of friction, if a force acting on a moving object stops acting, the object will
What is keep moving at a constant speed?
acceleration
What is a change in velocity (speed, direction, or both) of a body.
An object will keep moving at a constant speed if...
What is, there are no forces acting on the object?
position
What is a specific point in space?

What is the forces will cause the box to move to the left?
Velocity is the ____________ of an object
What is the speed and direction?
What is a pull or push that is applied to an object?
Newton's 2nd Law of Motion
What is the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.
To use a tool to learn more about the volume, length, or weight of an object
What is measure?
