Force & Motion
Vocabulary: Force & Motion
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A change in position measured by distance and time. | motion |
| A variable that gives your location relative to an origin. | position |
| The distance an object travels divided by the time it takes. | speed |
| A variable which gives both speed and direction of an object. | velocity |
| The rate at which velocity changes | acceleration |
| The ability to change or cause change. | energy |
| A push or pull in a particular direction that has the ability to | force |
| When an object is not moving, the combined forces on it result | balanced force |
| The sum of all forces acting on an object. | net force |
| A form of energy that comes from Force applied over Distance. | work |
| The mass of an object times its velocity. | momentum |
| The total distance divided by the total time (because the speed of moving objects in not always constant) | average speed |
| The property of an object to resist any change in its motion. | inertia |
| Opposition that slows something down or prevents movement. | resistance |
| A force that opposes motion between touching surfaces. | friction |
