100

An object at rest stays at rest unless acted on by this.

Unbalanced force

100

This formula calculates force.

Force = mass x acceleration

100

A push or pull on an object.

Force

100

What is kinetic and potential energy?

Kinetic - energy of motion

Potential - stored energy

100

A 5 kg object accelerates at 2 m/s². What is the force?

F=ma

10 N

200

The tendency of an object to resist changes in motion.

Inertia

200

If mass stays the same and force increases, ________ increases.

acceleration

200

The rate at which velocity changes.

Acceleration

200

A pendulum is swinging and is at its highest point (far right/far left). Describe its kinetic and potential energy.

All potential, no kinetic

200

An object accelerates at 10 m/s2 with a force of 20 N. How much is its mass?

2 kg

300

Which direction is this block moving? With how much force?

Right, 17 N

300

A truck and bicycle receive the same force. Which object accelerates less?

The truck

300

If an object has balanced forces, it is doing what?

Not moving

300

These two things increase the total energy in a system.

Mass and Velocity

300

An object is moving 10 meters in 3 seconds. What is its speed?

Speed = distance / time

3.33 m/s

400

Which direction is this block moving?

5 N North

400

If you throw a pencil, how can you increase its speed?

More force

400

A force that slows moving objects by rubbing surfaces together.

Friction

400

The faster an object moves, the more ________ it has.

Kinetic Energy

400

Calculate the Kinetic Energy of an object with a mass of 10kg and a velocity of 2m/s2.

KE = ½ x mass x velocity ²

20 J

500

What is the net force and direction?

3 N Left

500

Two cars crash into each other. One is a truck and has a much larger mass and crushes the other. Why does it crush the other one despite both cars going the same speed?

It has more mass, and thus it exerts more force.

500

What is the unit for Force?

Newtons

500

A ball, before dropped, has 15 J of Potential Energy. How much kinetic energy will it have when it falls?

15 J

500

Calculate the Kinetic Energy of an object with a mass of 5kg and a velocity of 4m/s2.

KE = ½ x mass x velocity ²

40 J
