A force can be either a ______ or a ________.
What is PUSH or PULL
Three factors used to describe the motion of any object are...
What is Position, Speed, and Direction?
A combined force that does not cause movement.
What is a balanced force?
True of False: force always results in movement.
False. A force is a push or pull that may or may not result in movement.
A force that slows or stops motion when objects rub together.
What is Friction
The combination of all forces acting on an object is called:
What is Net Force
Friction is an example of this kind of force.
What is a contact force?
This is a fixed place or object used to determine if another object is in motion.
What is a reference point?
The tendency of an object to resist any change in motion is known as
What is inertia?
Newton's First Law of Motion states that an object...
in motion will remain constant unless acted upon by an outside force.
The SI unit for Force is.....
What is a Newton?
The rate at which an object changes position is its:
What is speed?
Two examples of non-contact forces are
What are magnetism and/or gravity and/or electric forces
A change in a moving object's speed or direction is:
What is Acceleration?
This is the measure of an object's speed in a specific direction.
What is velocity?
This is how opposite magnetic poles affect each other.
What is they attract each other.
A force that is applied to an object by another object that is NOT in direct contact is called:
a non-contact force
A combined force that causes something to move...
What is an unbalanced force?
A force that acts on certain types of metal, such as Steel, Iron, Nickel, and Cobalt, is
What is magnetism?
