What is motion?
True or False: all kinds of things around you do not move in different ways.
This is the formula for average speed.
What is total distance/total time?
This happens to the energy of an object when the speed of the object decreases.
What is the energy of the object decreases?
Gravity is a force that makes objects do this.
What is pull toward each other?
The rate at which an object changes position.
What is speed?
True or false: Many objects can be reference points.
What is True?

What is 160 km/hr?
This type of force must touch an object to affect it.
What is a contact force?
On which object would the force of gravity be strongest? An apple, a book, a basketball, or a truck?
What is a truck?

You are moving a heavy box across a room. You ask a friend to help you lift it. What is it easier when your friend helps?
What is the forces that you and your friend use are combined, so there is now a greater amount of force to move the box?
Describe what happens to the motion of a baseball after a pitcher throws it?
What is:
The pitcher throws the ball in the direction of the batter. The ball makes contact with the bat and the force makes the ball change speed and direction?
