Question
Answer
speed   To calculate the _______ of an object, divide the distance the object travels by the amount of time it takes to travel that distance (S=D/T).  
🗑
velocity.   Speed in a given direction  
🗑
Force   is a push or pull  
🗑
balanced force   is when all forces acting on an object are equal and it will not cause a change in the object’s motion.  
🗑
unbalanced force   is when all the forces acting on an object are not equal and it will cause a change in the object’s motion.  
🗑
Net force   is the sum of all forces acting on an object  
🗑
Newton 1st   Law of Motion states that an object in motion, or an object at rest, will stay that way unless acted upon by an outside force. This law is also known as the law of inertia  
🗑
Inertia   is the tendency of an object to keep doing whatever it is doing at the moment.  
🗑
Newton 2nd   Law of Motion that the force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the object’s acceleration (F=MA  
🗑
Newton 3rd   Law of Motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction  
🗑
Acceleration   is the rate at which velocity changes. It involves increasing speed, decreasing speed or changing directions  
🗑
potential energy   The energy of position  
🗑
kinetic energy.   the energy of motion  
🗑
Mechanical energy   is related to the motion or position of matter. Kinetic energy and potential energy are two forms of mechanical energy  
🗑
Thermal energy   __________ is also known as heat energy  
🗑
Chemical energy   is stored in the bonds between atoms; the energy is released when the bond is broken.  
🗑
three   There are ___ types of waves transverse, longitudinal, and surface.  
🗑


   

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.
