Question
Answer
Acceleration   The rate at which the velocity of an object changes. (M/s^2)  
🗑
Displacement   A change in position having both magnitude and direction; is equal to the final position minus the initial position. (m)  
🗑
Force   A push or pull exerted on an object that causes a change in motion; has both direction and magnitude and may be a contact or a field force. (Newtons N)  
🗑
Impulse   The prod uct of the average net force on an object and the time interval over which the force acts. (N*s)  
🗑
Inertia   The tendancy of an object to resist change.  
🗑
Kinectic Energy   The energy of an object resulting from its motion. (Joules J)  
🗑
Momentum   The product of the objects mass and the objects velocity. (Kg m/s)  
🗑
Newtons 1st Law of Motion   States that an object at rest will remain at rest, and moving object will continue moving in a straight line with constant speed, if and only if the net force acting on that object is zero.  
🗑
Newtons 2nd Law of Motion   States that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force and inversly proportional to the mass of the object being accelerated.  
🗑
Normal force   The perpendicular contact force exerted by surface of another object.  
🗑
Power   The work done, divided by the time needed to do work. (Watts)  
🗑
Scalar   Quantities such as temperature and distance, that are just numbers without any direction.  
🗑
Tension   The specific name for the force exerted by the rope or a string. (Newtons)  
🗑
Vector   Quantities such as positions that have both magnitude and direction  
🗑
Work   The transfer of energy by mechanical means is done when a constant force is exerted on an object in the direction of motion, times the objects displacement.  
🗑
Potential Energy   Stored energy in a system  
🗑
Mass   Amount of matter in an object  
🗑


   

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.
