Air resistance
The upward force on an object falling through the air is
100
Kinetic Energy
What is the energy a moving object has because of its motion?
100
Machine
What is a device that makes doing work easier?
200
Second
What is the SI unit to measure time?
200
Velocity
The speed and direction with which an object moves is its
200
Friction
A force that opposes the sliding motion between two touching surfaces
200
Potential Energy
Stored up energy due to position.

Simple Machine
What is a machine that does work with one movement of the machine?
300
Theory
An explanation of an event that is based on repeated observations and experiments is a
300
Speed=distance/time
What is the equation for speed?
300
Acceleration=net force/mass
What is the equation for Newton's Second Law of Motion?
300
Kinetic energy=1/2 mass x speed2
What is the equation for kinetic energy?
300
Pulley
What is a grooved wheel with a rope running along the groove?
400
Scientific Law
A rule or principle that describes what happens in nature is a
400
Newton's First Law of Motion
An object moving at constant velocity keeps moving at that velocity unless an unbalanced net force acts on it. What law is this?
400
Newton's Second Law of Motion
This law states that the acceleration of a object is in the same direction as the net force on the object.
400
Chemical Potential Energy
Energy stored in chemical bonds is
400
Wedge
What is an inclined plane with one or two sloping side?
500
State the problem, gather information, state the hypothesis, test hypothesis, analyze data, draw conclusions
What are the scientific methods, in order?
500
a=vf-vi/t
What is the equation for acceleration?
500
Newton's Third Law of Motion
This law states that when one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts a force on the first object that is equal in strength and in the opposite direction.
500
Law of Conservation of Energy
This law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed.
