100
The unit for force
What is a Newton
100

A numerical measure of its inertia; a  measure of the amount of matter in the object? M=W/G

What is the mass?

100
Newtons 3rd law
What is when a force is exerted an equal force is acting in the opposite direction
100

What is the Formula to calculate Speed??

S= D/T

100

Forces occurring between objects and the surfaces they are on

What is friction

200
The energy of motion
What is Kinetic energy
200

An objects tendency to stay in motion or at rest

What is inertia

200

He is often referred to as one of the "Founding Fathers" of modern physics. 

Who is Sir Isaac Newton

200

"Every object retains its state of rest or state of uniform straight line motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force"

What is Newton's First Law?

200

What time of fuel is used by Nuclear Reactors 

What is Uranium & (also accepted) Plutonium 

300
Work done over a period of time
What is Power
300
the attractive force that acts on all objects everywhere
What is gravity
300

This is represented by the measure of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance or W=F*D

What is work.

300

What is acceleration?

What is the rate of change in velocity.
300

What is a reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller nuclei

Fission

400
The unit for work and energy
What is the Joule
400
The equation for force
What is F = MA
400

The force of gravity on the object and may be defined as the mass times the acceleration of gravity, w = mass*gravity.

What is weight?

400

What is the difference between Speed & Velocity?

Velocity is has a vector/direction 

400

Light, radiation, and soundwaves are all what type of energy? 

What is Electromagnetic

500

If a Car is traveling at 40m/s for 30 minutes what is the distance it will travel in kilometers?

D= S x T

D= 40 m/s x 1800 sec

D= 72000 m = 72 km

500

The mass (with correct unit) of an object that is traveling at 20m/s^2 and has a force of 10,000N 

M = F/A

M= 10,000 / 20

M= 500kg

500

This scientific "principle" states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. OR F=M*A

What is Newton's 2nd Law

500

Why is would an astronaut weight lighter in planets like Mercury and Mars than on their own home planet like Earth?

What is the downward gravitational force in those planets are smaller (weaker).

500

This type of nuclear reaction fuels our sun

What is fusion?
