Simple Machines
Moveable Pulley
The measure of how much matter is in an object; objects with greater mass feel heavier; and objects with less mass feel lighter regardless of size
What is MASS
The first invention that was not inspired by something already existing in nature.
The Wheel and Axle
Newton’s Second Law as an equation
What is F=ma
(force = mass X acceleration)Energy resources that are reusable and sustainable because they never run out, that are sourced from the earth, and that do not emit harmful byproducts into the earth’s environment
