A List of Forces
The vector sum of forces acting on a particle or body.
What is Force Net?
This amount of energy will never change in a closed system.
What is Mechanical Energy?
The amount of velocity that a system averages.
What is Average velocity?
An object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it.
What is Newton's First Law of Motion?
A collision in which kinetic energy is not conserved due to internal friction.
What is an Inelastic Collision?
An attractive force that exists between every object.
What is Gravitational Force?
The term used to describe amount of energy an object has when it is at the very beginning of a system
What is Potential Energy?
The term used to describe the amount of velocity at the beginning.
What is Original Velocity?
The force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.
What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?
A collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision.
What is an Elastic Collision?
The force resisting relative motion between surfaces.
What is Frictional Force?
The type of energy an object has when it is moving.
What is Kinetic Energy?
The term used to describe the amount of velocity at the end.
What is Final Velocity?
When two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.
What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?
A collision where the objects are stuck together and move away from each other.
What is an Explosion Collision?
A person pushes a box across the floor, what type of force is described?
What is Applied Force?
The rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.
What is Acceleration?
The change between Final and Original Velocity.
What is the Change in Velocity?
The man who made three basic laws of motion.
Who is Isaac Newton?
Gum getting stuck to the wall is an example of this type of collision.
What is an inelastic collision?
Is the component of a contact force that is perpendicular to the surface that an object contacts.
What is Normal Force?
How to calculate Potential Energy.
What is PE=mgh?
An equation to calculate Average Velocity.
What is Vavg= Vf - Vo / 2 or Vavg= d / t?
The total amount of laws we studied this school year.
What is 3 laws?
A baseball bat hitting a baseball would be this type of collision.
What is an elastic collision?
