The unit for force
What is a Newton
100

The unit for velocity

Meters per second

100
The difference between weight and mass
What is Weight is how gravity acts on an object, mass is what makes up the object.

If Jonny walks 8 blocks north and 5 blocks west, how far did Jonny walk?

13 blocks

100
the acceleration due to gravity
What is 9.8 m/s2

If an object is at rest, what is its velocity?

0 m/s

A hammer and a feather are dropped at the same time on the moon. They both reach the ground at the same time. Why?

There is no air, so all objects will fall at the same rate

200
the forces acting on a ball thrown into the air?
What is air resistance and gravity

I drop a ball and a rock from the same height, which hits the ground first?
they hit at the same time
300

The difference between Speed and velocity

300

In acceleration formula, what does Vi stand for?

Initial Velocity

400

If a ball is dropped from 143 meters, what will its velocity be when it hits the ground?

(it takes 5.4 secs to hit the ground) 

53 m/s

400

The three symbols for the speed formula.

What are "s," "t," and "d"?

If Jacob through a ball straight up (on earth) at the rate of 40.4m/s, how long would it go up until it stopped going up and started to fall?

4.1 seconds

-2.5 m/s^2

400

The formula used to solve for Displacement. Called the pythagorean theorem.

What is a2 + b2 = c2

500

The distance a car travelled if it drove at 40 m/s for 30 minutes

What is 72 km?

D = v*t = 40 m/s * 1800 s

D= 72,000 m = 72 km
