This American poet's most well known works include "Mending Wall", "Fire and Ice", and "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"
Who was Robert Frost?

This is the distance that a ball released from rest will fall during the 2nd second if it traveled distance H during the first second.
What is 3H?
200
This is the type of picture that can (should) be drawn for any dynamics problem.
What is a free-body diagram?
200
This is how we determine force between a point charge and a test charge.
What is Coulomb's Law?
200
This is the name we give for the change in momentum.
What is impulse?
200
This mathematician's work on planar geometry, "Elements", is the foundation for most high school math geometry classes.
Who was Euclid?

This is the value that can be found from the area under a velocity-time graph.
What is displacement?
300
This is the direction that kinetic friction acts on an object.
What is opposite of the motion?
300
This quality is the product of charge and electric potential.
What is the electric potential energy U?
300
This is the final velocity a 500 kg car that starts at rest will have after it is rear-ended by a 650 kg that is initially going 20 m/s. The cars lock together after they hit.
What is 11.3 m/s?
300
This person is the one referred to by "Tippecanoe" in the campaign song "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too" for the Whig Party's 1840 campaign.
Who was William Henry Harrison?

This is the type of acceleration that an object must have in order to be able to use the top three equations on your equation sheet.
What is constant?
400
This is the direction of the tension in a string when you twirl a ball in a circle above your head.
What is toward the center?
400
These are the properties of electric field lines.
What is lines that never cross or tangle, diverge from positive and converge on negative charges and are denser when more lines are present?
400
A 5 kg loaded rifle is initially held at rest and then fired. The 0.05 kg bullet leaves the barrel at 450 m/s. This is the final momentum of the bullet-gun system.
What is zero?

This duo's works include "The Sound of Music", "South Pacific", and "Oklahoma!" just to name a few.
Who are Rodger's and Hammerstein?

This is how long it will take a 5 kg object to hit the ground if dropped from rest at a height of 12.5 m. You can ignore air resistance.
What is 1.60 seconds?
500
This is the normal force on a 10 kg object that rests on an incline that makes a 25 degree angle with the horizontal.
What is 90.6 N?
500
If a box, ball, and thin hoop with the same size and mass are released down a frictionless ramp, THIS is the object that will reach the bottom first.
What is a three way tie?
500
This is the symbol used to represent angular momentum.
What is L?
