newton 2 laws | The second law says that the acceleration of an object produced by a force is directly related to the magnitude |
mass | Mass is a measure of the number of atoms in an object combined with the density of those atoms. |
froce | In physics, force is a push or pull on an object. A force can cause an object to accelerate, slow down, remain in place, or change shape. |
acceleration | Acceleration is a way to measure how fast something is speeding up |
proportional | When two quantities always have the same size in relation to each other. In other words they have the same ratio. |
gravity | Earth's gravity is what keeps you on the ground and what causes objects to fall. |
friction | : the force that causes a moving object to slow down when it is touching another object |
force vector | The force vector describes a specific amount of force and its direction. |
newton 3 laws | This means that for every force there is a reaction force that is equal in size, but opposite in direction. |
kinetic energy | Kinetic Energy is energy that is in motion. |
