motion
| word | defenition |
|---|---|
| contact force | when two objects hit or bump into each other (friction) |
| inertia | objects want to resist motion (at rest stays at rest in motion stays in motion) |
| Action-at-a-distance force | when two forces act on each other but don't touch or bump (gravity) (magnets repealing) |
| newtons 1 law | Something at rest stays at rest and something in motion stays in motion (law of inertia) |
| newtons 2 law | the force needed to move an object depends on mass and acceleration (when moving with more force it will go faster) |
| for every action there has to be a equal and opposite reaction | |
| net force | a combination of forces acting on a object |
| units for force | newtons |
| units for acceleration | M/S squared |
| formula for force | F=ma |
| calculation of net force | 1v+2v=3v same direction add different subtract |
