100
Wrote founding observations for the mathematics of integral calculus. Defined three governing laws of nature.
What is Sir Isaac Newton
100
*************DAILY DOUBLE*************** The sum of the value of things divided by the number of things
What is Average
100
Gravitation displayed by the earth.
What is Gravity
100
Non-solid matter (liquid or gasses) that are characterized by their tendency to flow when acted upon by forces.
What is Fluid
100
A device used in applying work for the completion of a task.
What is a Machine
200
Objects stay where they are unless somebody throws them, and once objects are thrown through empty space, they keep traveling at the same velocity and in the same direction until something stops the or changes their course.
What is Newton's First Law of Motion
200
? = M x A
What is F (Force)
200
Basic natural force of attraction existing among all masses in the universe but noticeable only among large masses such as planets, stars, and natural satellites.
What is Gravitation.
200
To squeeze together, as gas under pressure.
What is to Compress
200
A simple machine used to change the direction of a motion and/or to increase either force or distance at the expense of the other.
What is a Lever
300
The property of an object that makes it resist changes with regard to its motion.
What is Inertia
300
A rate at which an object moves. Distance over time.
What is Velocity or Speed
300
Gravitation of a particular mass over its entire extent of influence.
What is Gravitational Field.
300
The spreading out of the molecules in a substance due to absorption of heat energy by the atoms and an increase in their vibration.
What is Expansion
300
The pivot point of a lever where the direction of motion changes.
What is a Fulcrum
400
For every action, there is an equal reaction in the opposite direction.
What is Newton's Third Law of Motion
400
100th of a meter
What is a centimeter
400
Not changing, the same under all circumstances. In mathematics, a value that does not vary as the gravitational acceleration constant i a vacuum is constant for all masses.
What is a Constant
400
The application of a force over a distance.
What is Work
400
A crowbar is an example of this type of machine.
What is a lever.
500
For an object of certain mass, the greater the force applied to the object, the greater its increase in velocity over time.
What is Newton's Second Law of Motion (or ACCELERATION)
500
The study of mathematics that analyzes cyclic patterns such as waves and curves.
What is Trigonometry.
500
Circular motion of an object around a central point as the result of a centripetal force and its own inertia, especially the movement of a planet around the sun or a satellite around a planet.
What is an Orbit.
500
******DAILY DOUBLE****** If we wanted to lift a 50 pound child 1 inch, and we had a lever (seesaw) that we could push down 50 inches, how many pounds of force would we have to apply to the seesaw to lift the child? (Ignore friction)
What is one (1) pound.
