True or False: An object in motion will stay in motion.
TRUE
what is friction
The force that resists motion between two surfaces.
A hockey puck is at rest on the ice. Why does it take only a slight amount of force to move the puck across the ice
Ice has little to no friction to stop the puck
If a car is speeding up, its initial speed is ____________(more or less) than its final speed

the tree
Charlene kicked the winning goal in her last soccer game. What force acted between Charlene's foot and the ball to cause the ball to move?

Which of Newton's laws states: That an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. A.1st B.2nd C.3rd
1st
True or False. Using snow tires on an icy road is an example of increasing friction.
True
Examine the image. The bat is making contact with the ball. How is energy being transferred.
Kinetic energy is getting transferred to the ball
a hockey puck will slide farther on ice than on pavement
Variable:_______
Friction
what is inertia
Inertia is an object's "laziness" or resistance to changing its speed or direction. (or any other acceptable answer.
Name one way friction is helpful in everyday life.
e.g., walking, braking a bike, gripping objects.
