The speed and direction of a moving object

velocity

100

the amount of matter in an object

mass

100

A stronger force can create a greater change in...

velocity

100

Friction is:

A force between an object and the surface it is moving over.

100

The moment when two objects hit each other

Collision

200

Velocity is:

Speed in a particular direction

200
What is mass:


Speed, size, weight, force

weight

200

A force is:

A push or pull that can change the motion of an object.

200

Which of the following has more friction: 

Hardwood floor or carpet

carpet

200

True or false:

A force is required to change the velocity of an object.

TRUE

300

Which of the follwing is one of the five ways an object's motion can change:

Hit something, speed up, fly off the table, or bounce off something.

Speed up

300

Anything that has mass and takes us space:

Matter

300

You apply the same amount of force to a playground ball and a bowling ball. Which object will have the largest change in velocity?

Playground ball

300

in order for an object to stop moving the force must come from...

opposite direction from the objects motion

300

If an unbalanced force acts on a stationary object the object will...

accelerate in the direction of the force.

400

Speed is:

How fast an object is moving

400

If a ball with more mass hits a ball with less mass will the ball with less mass:

stay the same, speed up, slow down

speed up/accelerate

400

To apply a force

Exert

400
Does a hocky rink have less friction than a football field? Why?

Because friction is higher on a grassy field, but on the ice rink, frictionless ice drastically reduces friction.

400

True or false:A stronger force causes a smaller change in velocity.

FALSE

500

If a ball was pushed would it gain velocity or lose velocity

gain velocity

500

What is newtons second law

mass times acceleration equals force.

500

In order for an object to start moving, the force must come from: 

Any direction

500

Joe pushed a tennis ball aross the carpet floor in his house. The ball gradually slowed down and then stopped after 3 meters. 

Why did it stop moving?

The floor exerted a force that is opposite to the direction of the block's motion.

500

True or false:

How an object changes velocity depends on the direction of the force exerted on that object.

TRUE
