Forces (8.6A)
Determine how UB forces change speed or direction of an object's motion
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction? | Acceleration |
| How do you calculate net force if two forces are going in the SAME direction? | Add the forces |
| How can an object that is not in motion be described? | At rest |
| What kind of forces are acting when an object is at rest or it's moving in a straight line at a constant speed? | Balanced forces |
| What is speed with direction? | Velocity |
| What is distance traveled in a certain amount of time? | Speed |
| What is the total of all forces acting upon an object? | Net force |
| How do you calculate net force if two forces are going in OPPOSITE directions? | Subtract the forces |
| What is the unit in which force is measured? | Newton (N) |
| How do you calculate force? | Mass x Acceleration |
| How do you calculate mass? | Force divided by Acceleration |
| How do you calculate acceleration? | Force divided by Mass |
| What is a push or a pull? | Force |
| What is the unit in which mass is measured? | Kilogram (kg) |
| The amount of matter in an object defines - | Mass |
| What is a force that opposes the motion of one object across another? | Friction |
| What is the unit in which speed is measured? | m/s |
| What is the unit in which acceleration is measured? | m/s^2 (meters per second squared) |
| Which forces cause an object to accelerate? | Unbalanced forces |
