100
Movement of an object with respect to another object.
What is Motion?
100
Rate of change of velocity.
What is Acceleration?
100
Push or Pull. Causes changes in motion.
What is force?
100
Cause passenger to become part of the car.
What is safety belt?
100
s = d __ t
What is equation of Speed?
200
How far something moved. Measured in meter, kilometers, etc.
What is Distance?
200
Change in Velocity _______________ Change in Time
What is calculating Acceleration?
200
Tendency of an object to resist change in motion.
What is Inertia?
200
Car neither speeds up or slows down.
What is constant speed?
200
a = V2 - V1 = Change in V _______ __________ t2 - t1 = Change in t
What is equation of Acceleration?
300
Distance and direction of object's change in position from the starting point.
What is Displacement?
300
Meters/second/second or m/s squared.
What is unit of Acceleration?
300
An object in motion stays in motion until an unbalanced force acts of an object at rest stays at rest until an unbalanced force acts.
What is Newton's First Law?
300
Total distance + total time.
What is average speed?
300
V = Change in Distance ________________ Change in Time
What is equation of velocity
400
How fast an object moves. Measured in meter/second or m/s or meter per second.
What is Speed?
400
1. Speed up. 2. Slow down. 3. Change direction.
What is 3 ways to Accelerate?
400
Combination of forces.
What is net force?
400
Speed at any given moment. Measured by a speedometer.
What is Instantaneous Speed?
400
Change in Speed ______________ Change in Time
What is equation of distance?
500
Distance - Time graph. Slope = Rise/Run. Rise - Distance. Run - Time. Speed = Distance/Time.
What is graphing motion?
500
The speed of something in a given direction.
What is Velocity?
500
Equal forces in opposite directions.
What is balanced force?
500
The saying when you calculate distance. When a displacement doesn't have to follow roads.
What is "As the Crow flies,"?
500
d = Vt + 1/2at squared
What is equation of displacement?
