What is every action has an equal and opposite reaction
What's the difference between speed and velocity?
What is velocity has direction and speed does not?
What is the force that opposes motion in water that we must overcome to move?
Work is the energy transferred to an object by force over a distance.
Power is the amount of work done over time. (rate)
What is Physics?
What is the study of matter?
What is Newton's Second Law?
What is F = ma
Force equals mass times acceleration
A term used to describe the change in position of an object (not distance)

Give me an example of something buoyant and explain why it floats.
Answers may vary.
List all 6 simple machines

What is matter?
What is Newton's First Law
What is an object in motion/place stays in motion/place unless acted upon by an outside force
Define Inertia
What is the resistance of an object to a change in motion?
Describe to me the effect of a bird expanding its wings while its flying. (what happens)
When the bird extends its wing, it creates more places for the air particles to hit. Larger surface area. This creates more drag and more air resistance.
The person the Joule (unit of work) was named after
Who is James Joule?

What are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma?
Where was Newton from?
Where is England/Britain
What is the other teacher's name (the guy with glasses)?
The reason why parachutes slow down a person from falling
Because of its wide surface area, all the air particles hitting the parachute slow down a parachuting person when they are falling.
What is the "work" of an object directly calculated by?
What is by force and distance
Tell me what effect increasing force has on the acceleration of an object.
