Newtons (N)
What is the metric base unit for mass?
Gram
What is the symbol for wavelength?
lambda

Mediums
What force attracts masses together (for instance, people to planets)
Gravity
Km/hr
cm/s
What is the symbol for displacement?
trianglex

What is the metric measure for acceleration?
m/s2
What variable uses m/s/s to describe it?
a
A water bottle has a positive velocity, and a negative acceleration. This means that it will...
Slow down
What point is exactly between the crests and troughs of a transverse wave?
Equilibrium/ Resting point
What force only occurs when two objects push against each other in an equal and opposite reaction?
Normal Forces
How many centimeters are in 145 meters?

If an object has an initial velocity of 6 m/s, and a final velocity of 21 m/s, what is the object's acceleration if it took 5 seconds to accelerate?
3 m/s/s
0.444 m/s
If an object's mass is tripled, what would happen to it's acceleration?
Divided by three
