Math of Mechanics Fill In The Blanks

      Help!   
In each blank, try to type in the word that is missing. If you've typed in the correct word, the blank will turn green.

If your not sure what answer should be entered, press the space bar and the next missing letter will be displayed.

When you are all done, you should look back over all your answers and review the ones in red. These ones in red are the ones which you needed help on.
Question: Answer: the of motion
Question: What does a scalar tell us?Answer: Scalar tell size OR magnitude of the thing measured
Question: What does a quantity tell us?Answer: A vector quantity has both and direction.
Question: Which of these quantities is a scalar quantity, or displacement?Answer: Distance is scalar; displacement is
Question: Which of these is a vector quantity, Speed or velocity?Answer: Velocity is vector; is scalar
Question: What are some vector quantities?Answer: Acceleration, force, and
Question: DistanceAnswer: How far an has moved
Question: DisplacementAnswer: Distance and direction of an from its starting point
Question: Define Answer: The an object moves per unit of time
Question: Answer: Distance and direction an object moves per unit of
Question: Average Answer: The over time when speed is changing
Question: speedAnswer: Speed at any given moment in time like on your speedometer in the
Question: speedAnswer: Speed that is not changing or is the same
Question: AccelerationAnswer: Speed that is increasing or getting
Question: DecelerationAnswer: Negative acceleration or speed that is /slowing down
Question: Define Answer: Any push or pull on an
Question: Newton’s First Law of MotionAnswer: When there is no unbalanced on an object, objects at rest stay at rest and objects moving keep moving at the same speed in the same direction
Question: Newton’s Second Law of MotionAnswer: When an unbalanced acts on an object it accelerates
Question: What did Galileo determine about the rate of objects?Answer: All objects fall at the same rate if is little or no air resistance
Question: What is the of gravity at the earth’s surface?Answer: 9.85 m/s2
Question: What are 5 differences mass and weight?Answer: Mass is the amount of matter in something and weight is the pull of gravity. Mass is on a balance in g or kg and weight is measured on a spring scale in N. Mass cannot change or be zero and weight can.
Question: What is ?Answer: is the product of mass and velocity
Question: How do we it?Answer: p(momentum) = m(ass) * v(elocity)
Question: Be able to calculate the formula for ForceAnswer: F = m*
Question: Be able to using the formula for momentumAnswer: p = m * v
Question: Advanced only: What is ?Answer: times time equals impulse
Question: Advanced only: Relate Impulse to Answer: is equal to the change in momentum.
Question: only: How does this relate to building safer cars?Answer: When momentum changes quickly, Force can be by extending the time it acts. Air bags, seat belts, and bumpers which crumple all work to allow extra time between the Force and its impact in a collision.
