Speed & Velocity
What you calculate when you divide distance by time
What is Speed?
A graph that shows the distance and time an object traveled in
What is a Distance-Time Graph?
the law that states an object in motion will stay in motion and an object at rest will remain at rest; unless acted on by an outside force
What is Newton's 1st Law of Motion?
the three pieces of evidence that proves how earth has changed over time
What is Fossil evidence, Plate tectonics, and Superposition?
This object orbits our sun, covered in red dust, has little atmosphere and is always cold, the 4th planet from the sun.
What is Mars?
You calculate this using distance/time with a direction
What is Velocity?
the speed an object travels when the slope of the graph is steep
What is fast?
the act or process of changing position or location
What is Motion?
the type of tectonic boundary formed with the convergence of two continental plates?
What is Mountain?
this is what you can find between Mars and Jupiter
What is the Asteroid Belt?
the speed of a car traveling 10 miles in 5 minutes
What is 2 miles/minute?
The speed of an object if the slope of the line is very low
What is Slow?
when two opposing forces are uneven
What is an Unbalanced force?
the type of tectonic boundary that forms from the convergence of an oceanic crust and a continental crust
What is Convergent Subduction (or Trench)
This object is a chunk of ice and dust orbiting our sun, has two tails when exposed to the sun's radiation.
What is a Comet?
The speed of an airplane traveling 1000 miles in 2 hours
What is 500 mph?
The motion of the object in a graph when the slope of the line is flat
What is Stopped/Motionless?
when opposing forces on an object are even
What is a Balanced force?
the type of boundary formed from two tectonic plates sliding past one another; it causes earthquakes.
What is Transform?
the motion of an object spinning on its axis
What is Rotation?
What is 150 meters?
what it means when the slope of a line in a graph is negative (going down)
What is returning to the starting line?
the net force of an object
50 N --> <-- 25 N
What is 25 N to the right?
The type of plate boundary where two tectonic plates are moving away from one another.
What is Divergent?
