Science Force/Motion
Science Force/Motion Test
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A change in position is | motion |
| The measure of the pull of gravity on an object is an object's | weight |
| The ability to do work | Energy |
| The energy of motion | Kinetic Energy |
| A force that pulls all objects toward each other (and us to the ground) is | gravity |
| _____ is how fast an object moves from one position to another | speed |
| The measure of a force moving an object is | work |
| A push or pull is a | force |
| Energy that is stored not used | Potential Energy |
| Energy of moving parts | Mechanical Energy |
| The tendency of an object to resist change in its motion | Inertia |
| F = m.a | Newton's 2nd Law |
| For every force there is an equal and opposite force | Newton's 3rd Law |
| the rate of change in Velocity | Acceleration |
| Speed in a specific direction | Velocity |
| True or false: Pushing on a wall is NOT work. | True |
| True or false: Riding a bike is an example of work. | True |
| True or False: 23 meters per second (m/s) is a measure of acceleration. | False |
| True or false: 70 miles per hour is a measure of SPEED. | True |
| Tool used to measure Forces such as weight | Spring scale or Forcemeter |
| Do not change an object's motion | Balanced Forces |
| Cause a change in motion | Unbalanced Forces |
| Newton's 2nd law of motion states that F= m.a So objects with more mass have | Less acceleration |
| Newton's 2nd law of motion states that F= m.a So objects with less mass have | More acceleration |
| Newton's 1st law of motion states that an object at rest wants to stay at rest as long as the forces acting on it are | Balanced Forces |
| Newton's 1st law of motion states that an object in motion wants to stay in motion unless | Unbalanced forces act on it |
| For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction | Newton's 3rd law of motion |
| For every force there is | an equal and opposite force |
