Three principles that govern and describe all motion that we know of.
What are Newton's Laws of Motion?
100
Any push or pull acting on an object.
What is force?
100
The energy an object has due to its motion.
What is Kinetic Energy?
100
The equation used to calculate Gravitational Potential Energy.
What is PE = mass (kg) x height (m) x gravity (9.8 m/s/s)?
200
The speed of an object.
What is distance divided by time?
200
Newton's First Law of Motion states:
What is an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force?
200
The SI unit for force.
What is Newtons? (N)
200
The energy an object has due to its position above the ground.
What is Gravitational Potential Energy?
200
The equation used to calculate Kinetic Energy.
What is KE = .5 x mass (kg) X velocity squared (m/s)?
300
Speed and direction of travel.
What is velocity?
300
Newton's Second Law of Motion states:
What is the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the force applied to the object divided by its mass? (a=f/m)
300
The force between two objects that are in contact resisting motion.
What is friction?
300
The principle that energy can not be created nor destroyed.
What is the Law of Conservation of Energy?
300
The average speed of a runner that travels 100 meters in 20 seconds.
What is 5 m/s?
400
The rate of change in an object's velocity.
What is acceleration?
400
Newton's Third Law of Motions states:
What is for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction?
400
The force between any two objects with mass. On earth it causes an acceleration rate of 9.8 m/s/s.
What is Gravity?
400
When Potential Energy is converted to Kinetic Energy OR Kinetic Energy is converted to Potential Energy a great percentage is lost to this form through the action of this force.
What are heat and friction?
400
Indicated by an upwardly curving line on a graph of distance over time.
What is acceleration?
500
The SI unit for speed and velocity.
What is meters per second? (m/s)
500
Another name for Newton's Second Law of Motion.
What is inertia?
500
An object will always move in in the direction of this.
What is an unbalanced force?
500
The position on a 10 meter long ramp that a cart would have an equal amount of Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy.
What is at 5 meters or half way?
500
Indicated by a straight horizontal line on a graph of speed over time.
