Newton & Forces
The resistance of an object to any change in its motion/direction.
What is inertia?
A PUSH or PULL that causes a change in the motion or shape of an object.
What is force?
Protons and neutrons are made of these.
What are quarks?
When atoms of the same metal bond.
What are metallic bonds?
A slanting surface connecting a lower level to a higher level.
What is an inclined plane?
The resistance encountered when one body is moved in contact with another.
What is friction?
Uses grooved wheels and a rope to raise, lower or move a load.
What is a pulley?
The year the Higgs Boson was discovered.
What was 2012?
The bond that occurs when atoms share their electrons.
What is covalent bonding?
Friction between two surfaces that are not moving past each other.
What is static friction?
The energy stored by an object as a result of its position.
What is potential energy?
An object with at least one slanting side ending in a sharp edge, which can cut material apart.
What is a wedge?
Electrons are this type of particle.
What is a lepton?
The bond when one atom donates an electron to another.
What is ionic bonding?
The energy that matter has because of its motion and mass.
What is kinetic energy?
The force of attraction between all masses in the universe.
What is gravity?
A stiff bar that rests on a support called a fulcrum which lifts or moves loads.
What is a lever?
The particle that holds quarks together.
What are gluons?
The reaction when two or more simple molecules combine to form a more complicated one.
What is synthesis?
These particle have a half (1/2) unit of spin.
What are fermions?
A measure of the motion of a body equal to the product of its mass and velocity.
What is momentum?
The path that a projectile makes through space under the action of forces such as thrust, wind, and gravity.
What is trajectory?
The "force carriers".
What are bosons?
The reaction when one element in a molecule trades places with another element.
What is single displacement?
The reaction where molecules gain or lose electrons in the reaction.
