The ability to cause change or the ability to do work.
What is Energy?
Energy can never be created or destroyed.
What is The Law of Conservation of Energy?
The rate that a person covers a distance in any direction.
What is speed?
A change in position
What is motion
Newton's first law states that this is required for motion to change.
What is a net force
Energy stored in and object due to its position
What is Gravitational Potential Energy?
For work to be done, a force must be applied and this must happen.
What is motion over a distance?
Something to which you compare an object's position to determine if it is moving.
What is a frame of reference?
The rate of change in position over time with direction.
What is Velocity
Newton's 1st law is often called by this name because it states that an object's velocity resists changing due to this.
What is inertia
Energy in the form of moving electrons
What is electric energy
Work is usually measured in these units.
Joules
Along with the distance you move, this must be included to calculate average speed.
What is time?
Newton's 2nd law demonstrated that by comparing the force trying to change an object's motion to the object's mass, we calculate this.
What is acceleration
What is electric to mechanical
What is power?
A measurement of how far an object's position changed in a straight line from the starting point.
What is displacement?
The rate of change in velocity
What is acceleration
Newton's 3rd law explains that when a force (called an action force) is applied to something, this is created.
0.5mv2 allows this to be calculated.
What is Kinetic Energy
Amount of work done if a machine has a power of 50 watts runs for 20 seconds. Be sure to include your units. (Hint: p=w/t)
What is 1000 joules.
(Hint: v=d/t)
0.5 s
This property resists changes in motion.
What is inertia or mass
The 2 properties that determine the force of gravity between 2 objects.
What are mass and distance.
