Key Terms 1
What is the term for the study of motion?
Kinematics
This term is a push or pull that one object exerts on another.
Force
How do we calculate net force?
Net Force=?
Net Force= Force 1 + Force 2 +...
Who found the three laws of motion?
Isaac Newton
What is our school mascot?
Marauder
What is the term for the force that stops the sliding motion of two surfaces that are touching each other?
Friction
What term means the forces of attraction?
Gravity
What is the formula to calculate speed?
S=?
S = Distance/Time
S = D/T
What is the unit for force?
Newton (N)
What is the national anthem of the United States?
Star Spangled Banner
What type of forces are equal in size and opposite in direction?
Balance Force
Why is gravity important to Earth?
Without gravity, we would fly right out of it. Earth would not be livable.
What is the formula for force?
F= ?
F = M x A
An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion UNLESS acted on by an unbalanced force. Which law of motion is this?
First Law of Motion
Mama D is the advisor for what club?
Science Olympiad
What type of forces are unequal in size and same or opposite in direction?
Unbalanced Force
If you go to the moon which one will change, your mass or weight?
What is the formula for acceleration?
A=?
A = Sf - Si / t
Which law means for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction?
Third Law of Motion
What is the largest planet in our solar system?
Jupiter
What is the difference between vector and scalar?
Scalar has magnitude but no particular direction.
Vector has magnitude and acts in a particular direction
Name the 4 different types of frictions.
Static, Sliding, Rolling, and Air Resistance Friction.
Net Force is the combination of two or more forces that act on an object at the same time. If your Force 1 is 100 N and Force 2 is -50 N. What is the net force?
50 N
The Second Law of Motion states that if you use the same force on two objects with different mass, the acceleration will be different. So the more force and smaller the mass, is the acceleration greater or lesser?
Acceleration will be GREATER
What is Mama D's first name?
