QuestionAnswer
can friction do work on an object? yes
thermal energy total energy of the moving particles in a substance
kinetic friction energy removed from a moving object by the object it is moving against, two objects must interact, energy in the form of heat
static friction friction between two objects that are not moving, prevents an object from moving, not a force but a threshold
mechanical advantage doing more work with less effort
machine a simple system that reduces the force needed to do work, increases the amount of force applied
increasing the force work stays the same but force is increased
increasing the distance the object gains potential energy
changing the direction force applied in the same direction as load
input and output two forces involved when a machine does work
input force (Fin) force exerted on the machine
output force (Fout) force exerted by the machine
examples of an incline plane slide, ramp
examples of a lever hammer, teeter totter, shovel
examples of a wheel and axle roller blades, door handle, wheel barrow
examples of a pulley well, flag, elevator, crane

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
