Motion Commotion
The length of actual path covered by a moving object.
What is distance?
The fruit that supposedly fell on Newton
What is an apple?
The total force of an object.
What is Net Force?
The type of energy a roller coaster cart has at the top of a hill.
What is potential energy?
The formula used to calculate distance.
What is Distance = rate * time?
The measure of speed with respect to time in a given direction.
What is velocity?
The nickname for Newton's first law of motion.
What is the Law of Inertia?
Is Inertia a force?
What is no?
The kind of friction acting upon the wheels of a roller coaster.
What is Rolling Friction?
The formula used to calculate speed.
What is speed = distance/time?
The change in an object's velocity.
What is acceleration?
An object in motion tends to stay in motion, and an object at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
What is Newton's First Law of Motion?
Is magnetism a force?
What is yes?
The force of gravity upon a body as it accelerates
What is G-Force?
The formula used to calculate momentum.
What is Momentum = Mass/Velocity
The formula used to the calculate average speed of a body?
What is average speed = total distance / total time?
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?
The force caused by two surfaces that come into contact with each other.
What is Frictional Force?
The force that makes a roller coaster cart want to travel in a linear vector tangent to the angle of a turn?
What is centrifugal force?
The formula used to calculate acceleration.
What is acceleration = Δvelocity / Δtime?
The property of a body by which the body opposes change in its initial state of rest or motion with uniform speed on a straight line.
What is inertia?
F = M * A
What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?
The force applied to a cable or wire that is anchored on opposite ends to opposing walls or other objects.
What is Tension Force?
The force that keeps a roller coaster wanting to travel in a circular path on a loop.
What is the Centripetal Force?
Bernoulli's equation.
What is P1 + ρgy1 + ½ρv12 = P2 + ρgy2 + ½ρv22?
