Question
Answer
newtons 1st law of motion   an object at rest stays at rest and and object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalenced force  
newtons 2nd law of motion   the acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly propotional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same directon as the net force,and inversely prportional to the mass of the object  
newtons 3rd law of motion   for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction  
friction   force that opposes moion between two touching surfaces  
static friction   the friction betwen two sufaces that are not moving past eachother  
sliding friction   the force that oppposes the motion of two surfaces sliding past eachother  
rolling friction   the friction beten a rollig object and the surface it rolls on is rolling friction  
air resistnce   force of air resistance is opposite direction to the force of gravity  
terminal velocity   highest velocity that a falling object will reach  
gravity   force that attracts things to another  
the law of universal gravity   any two masses exert an attractive force on eachother  
weight   the gravitational force exerted on an object  
projectile motion   anything thats thrown or shot through the air  
centripeal acceleration   acceleration toward the center of a curved or circular path  
centripeal force   an unballnced force  
momentum   the productofits mass and velocity  
law of conservation of momentum   if a group f objects exerts force only on eachother their total momentum doesnt change
