| Speed/Average Speed | The distance traveled divided by the time interval during which motion occurred. |
| Force | A push or pull on an object. |
| Gravitational Force | |
| Elastic Potential Energy | An object has elastic potential energy when it has been stretched or compressed. |
| Potential Energy | The energy an object has because of its position, condition, or chemical composition. |
| Output Force(load) | |
| Insulator | |
| Direct Current (DC) | |
| Circuit | |
| Magnetic Field | |
| Velocity | The speed of an object in a particular direction. |
| Net Force | The combination of all of the forces acting on an object. |
| Kinetic Energy | The energy of an object that is due to the objects motion. |
| Gravitational Potential Energy | An object has gravitational potential energy due to its position above the ground. |
| Fulcrum | The point on which a lever pivots. |
| Work | The transfer of energy to an object by using a force that causes the object to move in the direction of the force. |
| Semiconductor | An element or compound that conducts electric current better than an insulator does but not as well as a conductor does. |
| Resistance | In physical science the opposition presented to the current by a material or device. |
| Series Circuit | A circuit in which the parts are joined one after another such that the current in each part is the same. |
| Electromagnetic | |
| Acceleration | The rate at which velocity changes over time. |
| Inertia | The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion unless an outside force acts on the object. |
| Chemical Potential Energy | |
| Mechanical Energy | The sum of an objects kinetic energy and potential energy due to gravity or elastic deformation. |
| Input Force (effort) | |
| Conductor | |
| Alternating Current(AC) | |
| Load(circuit) | |
| Parallel Circuit | A circuit in which the parts are joined in branches such that the voltage across each part is the same. |
| Permanent Magnet | |
| Average Speed | Average Speed= distance/ time |
| Acceleration | Average Time= (final velocity- starting velocity)/ time |
| Net Force | 1 N+ 2 N= 3 N |
| Force | |
| Kinetic Energy | kinetic energy= 1/2mv squared |
