Newton's Laws
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Acceleration | The change of speed of a moving object over time. |
| Balanced Force | Force is 0 so there is not movement. |
| Contact Force | A push or Bump. |
| Distant Force | Puts force on an object from a distance or without touching it. |
| Equal | The same as something else. |
| Force | A push or pull with a direction and a size. |
| Friction | When two objects rub together and create a resistance. |
| Inertia | Lack of movement or activity. |
| Motion | The change of an object’s position. |
| Net Force | A combination of more than one force. |
| Newton's 2nd Law | Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass (of the object being accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed (to accelerate the object). |
| Newton's 3rd Law | For every action there is an equal and opposite re-action. |
| Newton's 1st Law | An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. |
| Opposite | Completely different or the difference of two or more things-The Net. |
| Unbalanced Force | The Net Force is not 0 so there is movement. |
| Velocity | The change of direction or speed. |
