What is a Force?
100
A measure of how fast an object is moving.
What is Speed?
100
Earth's gravitational force will have the greatest affect on a 100-pound person on top of Mount Everest.
What is False, someone standing sea level will have a higher amount of gravitational force being applied! :)
100
The speed of the trip over a period of time.
What is Average Speed?
100
What grade did Mrs. Heap teach 3 years ago?
What is Third Grade!
200
The TENDENCY of an object to stay at rest or in constant motion unless a force acts on it?
What is Inertia?
200
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?
200
A basketball rolling on a tile floor will roll further than a basketball rolling on carpet.
What is True! :)
200
The speed at a certain point in time.
What is Instantaneous Speed?
200
My Dad's name?
What is Lance!
300
The rate at which velocity changes.
What is Acceleration?
300
An object remains at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force.
What is Newton's First Law of Motion?
300
According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, a ping pong ball will have the greatest acceleration over a baseball, if thrown with the same amount of force.
What is FALSE!
300
A car travels 300 km in 5 hours. What is the speed of the car?
What is 60 km/h.
300
When two things rub together and generate heat.
What is Friction?
400
The speed of an object in a particular direction.
What is Velocity?
400
The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the force applied.
What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?
400
If a 3-N force is pulling to the right, and a 3-N force is pulling to the left, the tug of war rope will travel to the left.
What is False, 3-N - 3-N = 0 Which means NO movement should be observed!
400
A spaceship travels 2,345 miles in 5 hours. What is the speed?
What is 469 mi/h.
400
It causes a book sitting on the desk to remain in the same place unless a force acts on it? (Not a LAW!)
What is Inertia?
500
Force of attraction between any object and every other object in the universe.
What is Gravitational Force?
500
Used to find the force needed to stop a moving object; it depends on mass and velocity.
What is Momentum?
500
The friction in space keeps the Moon from shooting straight out into outer space instead of staying in orbit around the Earth?
What is False, Gravitation Force does this!
500
A bug travels 45,000 miles in 24 mins. What is the speed?
What is 1875 mi/min.
500
If I throw a bowling ball and it hits another into the gutter. What happened to the first ball's momentum?
What is the first ball slowed because it gave some of its momentum to the second ball?
