What is velocity?
100
the force of attraction between objects
What is gravity?
100
The difference between speed and velocity
What is velocity involves direction, while speed does not?
100
to produce a change in motion, a force must be
What is unbalanced?
200
a change in a moving object's speed or direction
What is acceleration?
200
an object that appears to stay in place and that helps you detect motion in another object

What is a measure of the amount of matter?
200
When a mover puts furniture on wheels, which type of friction is the mover using to make the job easier
What is rolling kinetic friction?
300
A force that always acts to oppose motion
What is friction?
300
To calculate an object's average acceleration, you need to know: starting velocity, distance traveled, and speed starting point, endpoint, and the object's mass starting velocity, final velocity, and time it takes to change velocity average speed, distance, and the time it takes to change velocity
What is starting velocity, final velocity, and the time it takes to change velocity
300

400
a measure that does not change when an object's location changes
What is mass?
400
The gravitational pull is greater between two objects that a. have greater masses b. have rougher surfaces c. are farther apart d. are moving at greater speed
What is have greater masses?
400

500
the measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object
What is weight?
500
