100
A change in speed or direction; a vector quantity.
What is acceleration?

Every object will remain in its state of motion until it is acted on by a net force.
What is Newton's First Law?
100
The SI unit for power.
What is the Watt?
100
Towards the center of the circle.

300
If a ball is thrown horizontally off a cliff of height 65 m, what is its initial vertical velocity?
0 m/s
300
A property which causes objects to remain in their current state of motion; directly tied to mass.
What is inertia?
300
The energy based off of an objects height from the center of the Earth.
What is gravitational potential energy?
300
The force that keeps an object moving in a circle.
What is the centripetal force?
300
The equation for Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.
What the gravity constant (G) times the product of the masses, divided by the distance between them squared.
400
The area under the curve in a velocity vs time graph.
What is the displacement?
400
The ratio of the friction force and the normal force when an object is on a surface.
What is the coefficient of friction?
400
The amount of energy pumped into or out of a closed system.
What is the work?
400
When an object has no net torque.
What is rotational equilibrium?
400
Kinetic energy is conserved in this type of collision.
