Static Friction The friction that exists between surfaces when neither surface is moving relative to the other
Kinetic Friction the friction that exists between surfaces when at least one of those surfaces is moving relative to the other
Newton's third law for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
force equation mass X acceleration
total force force - friction

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.

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.
