Force
1. A push or a pull on an object.
A force!
2. This type of energy is associated with motion and movement.
Kinetic energy
3. Which of Newton's Laws involves inertia?
Newton's First Law of Motion
4. This type of force pulls down on your desk, you, and everything else on the planet.
Gravity
5. This type of energy is associated with position (ex. if someone is holding two books, and one is higher this book has more______ energy.)
Potential
6. What is the property of matter that explains how an object continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless an unbalanced force acts on the object.
Inertia
7. The measure of how large a force is
Magnitude
8. Work is being done only when a force is _______________ an object.
moving
9. I throw a basketball and throw a bowling ball with the same amount of force for each, and the basketball goes further.

11. Can energy be transferred from one object to another?
Yes!
12. If Ms. Mael was playing baseball, and she hits a homerun. Would the ball go farther if she hit it with a force of less magnitude or a force of greater magnitude?
Greater magnitude.
