Question
Answer

🗑
Copernicus   a renaissance scientist  
🗑
Galileo   a renaissance scientist  
🗑
Newton   a renaissance scientist  
🗑
The Law of Inertia   The velocity of an object will not change unless the object is acted on by an outside force/ Newtons first law  
🗑
Inertia   Inertia describes the fact that you must apply a force on an object to get it to change it's velocity.  
🗑
Friction   a force which results from surfaces rubbing against one another, this force opposes motion.  
🗑
Semicircular canals   canals in your ears that help you keep you're balance  
🗑
Force/ Newton's second law   When an object is acted on by an outside force. The strength of that force is equal the mass of the object times the resulting acceleration  
🗑
Newton, unit   the standard unit of force and is defined as kXm/sec squared  
🗑
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  
🗑
air resistance   the friction experienced by objects traveling through the air.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
