The man responsible for the Laws of Motion
Who is Isaac Newton?
The sum of all forces acting on an object
What is Net force?
The m in the equation F=ma represents
What is Mass?
This force pulls you toward the center of an object, like a planet.
What is Gravity?
The net force acting on an object with constant velocity
What is 0 N?
The equation of Newton's Second Law of Motion
What is F= ma?
DOUBLE POINTS
the rate of change of velocity
What is Acceleration?
The unit of measure for force
What is Newton?
This force is exerted when two objects are sliding past each other
Friction
The mass of an object with a force of 52N if it moves with an acceleration of 4 m/s2
What is 13 kg?
DOUBLE POINTS
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?
2 or more forces acting on an object that do NOT cancel each other, causing the object to move.
What are Unbalanced Forces?
The unit of measurement for velocity
What is m/s?
The type of frictional force that acts on objects as they travel through the air
What is Air Resistance?
The acceleration of a 0.1 kg box if you apply a net force of 3N
What is 30 m/s2?
An object at rest will stay at rest until acted upon by an external force.
What is Newton's 1st Law or Inertia?
the product of an object's mass and velocity
What is momentum?
DOUBLE POINTS
the unit of measurement for acceleration
What is m/s2 or m/s/s?
The force that is a product of gravity and mass. (Hint: this force changes depending on the planet you are on)
What is weight?
The speed of an object that travels 90 meters in 3 seconds
What is 30 m/s?
The term for forces that perfectly cancel each other out.
What are balanced forces?
The type of acceleration that indicates an object slowing down
What is negative acceleration?
The unit of measurement for momentum
What is kg*m/s?
DOUBLE POINTS
The value of Earth's gravitational acceleration
What is 9.8 m/s2?
The amount of force acted on a golf ball (0.2 kg) if it accelerates at a rate of 20 m/s2
What is 4 N?
