🗑
Inertia   The tendency of an object to resist change in its motion  
🗑
Acceleration   Change in direction and/or speed  
🗑
Velocity   The speed and direction of an object  
🗑
Reference point   A place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion  
🗑
Friction   The force that once surface exerts on another when the two rub against each other  
🗑


   

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.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
