What is work?

 Energy transferred to or from an object by the application of force along a displacement.

100

What is the formula for force?

Mass x Acceleration = Force 

100

What is the formula for speed?

Distance ÷ Time = Speed

100

What does a no speed graph show? 

That the object has no speed or is stopped.

What is Sir Isaac Newton known for?

 it is his formulation of the three laws of motion—the basic principles of modern physics—for which he is most famous.

200

What are joules?

A unit of energy transferred to an object when a force acts on that object.  

200

What is a balanced force?

When two forces acting on an object are equal in size but act in the opposite directions.

200

What is the difference between velocity and acceleration?

Velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference and its function of time. Acceleration is is the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.   

200

What is average speed?

The total path length travelled divided by the total time interval during which the motion has taken place.

200

What is constant velocity on a graph?

 The position graph has a constant slope

300

How is a velocity graph shown?

A slope on a graph. 

300

What is an unbalanced force?

When two forces acting on an object are not equal in size.

300

How do you calculate net force?

Net force is the sum of all forces acting on an object. The net force can be calculated using Newton's second law, which states that F = ma, where: F is the net force. m is the mass of the object.


300

What is an applied force? 

 A force that is applied to an object by a person or another object.

300

What is an example of newtons second law?

Pushing a car and a truck. 

400

What is the difference between a constant acceleration graph and a acceleration graph?

A constant acceleration graph shows that the speed stays steady going up and a acceleration graph shows that an object getting faster and slower and is not steady. 
400

What is net force?

The sum of the forces acting on an object.

400

What is friction?

The resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another.

400

What is newtons first law?

An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

400

What does increasing acceleration look like one a graph?

Acceleration is represented by the slope, or steepness, of the graph line.

500

How is a constant speed graph shown?

A horizontal line shown on a graph.  

500

What is the formula for work?

Force x Distance = Work

500

How do you find average speed?

Distance ÷ Time = Average speed

500

What is an example of newtons third law?

When two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The third law is also known as the law of action and reaction.
