Forces
What do we call a push or pull on an object?
a force
This type of energy an egg has when it’s high up and not moving.
potential energy
What would happen to the egg if there was no gravity?
would float into space
Which force slows down the egg as it falls?
air resistance
What type of energy does potential energy transforms when the egg starts falling?
kinetic energy
Which will Fall faster: An egg or a feather? and Why?
egg
- It is heavier
What is the force between two surface when rubbed against each other?
friction
Why might adding layers of soft materials around the egg help it stay safe?
absorbs impact energy
How does gravity affect the speed of a falling egg?
it increases the speed as it falls
When the egg hits the ground, what force causes it to stop suddenly?
impact force
When the egg breaks, what happens to its energy?
transformed into sound energy
In a vacuum with no air, which will fall with more speed- feather or a rock? and Why?
Both fall at same speed because no air resistance
