Two types of force are 

Push and pull

Why are sidewalks made out of concrete and not ice?

If it was made out of ice, there would be no friction to stop you from falling.

True or False: With an unbalanced force, two equal forces are acting in the same direction.

FALSE: An unbalanced force has two UNEQUAL forces acting in opposite directions. 

200

Isaac Newton's first law state that an object at rest or in motion will stay at rest or in motion unless acted upon by an _____________ force.

equal and opposite force

If a mom pushes a baby on a swing, what pattern will the swing move?

Back and forth

300

Does friction go in the opposite direction of something in motion, or the same friction as something in motion?

The opposite direction

According to Newtons 2nd Law, the greater the ___________ of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate it (speed it up)

mass

Since things often move in patterns, we are able to __________ the patterns, before they happen.

predict

Friction is a contact force which of the following is an example of a contact force?

True or false: If you pushed someone hard enough on a swing, they will fly up and touch the moon.

FALSE: You would never have enough force in the push to do this! 

400

What is the EXACT position on Ms. R in this picture?

Upside down, in front of the cabinet 

400

What is inertia?

An an object will stay still or keep moving, unless acted upon by an outside force.

What would happen if the woman stopped pushing the girl on the swing?

It would slow down and eventually stop 

500

The two factors that affect the amount of friction 

The type of material and weight

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Mass is how much matter is in something, weight is a measure of the force pulling on the objects!
