PS 08 Force & Moti
8th Grade 2022
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A change in an objects position over time. | Speed |
| Two factors that determine the speed of an object. | The distance traveled and the time it takes. |
| Speed with direction | Velocity |
| The change in velocity over time. | Acceleration |
| Any push or pull on an object. | Force |
| Which of Newton's laws states that objects at rest stay at rest, and objects in motion stay in motion, unless acted on by an outside force. | Newton's 1st Law |
| The amount of matter in an object. | Mass |
| Units for force and weight. | Newton |
| Units for mass in the metric system | gram |
| The force of gravity acting on a mass. | Weight |
| The use of force to move an object some distance. | Work |
| How do simple machines make work easier? | 1. They reduce the amount of force necessary to do the work. 2. Change the direction the the force applied. |
| The rate (how fast) at which work is being done. | Power |
| The units for work. | Joules |
| Which of Newton's laws states that the greater the mass of an object, the greater the force needed to accelerate it. | Newton's 2nd Law |
| Which of Newton's laws states "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction force"? | Newton's 3rd Law |
| The units for power. | Watts |
| What are the 6 simple machines? | Wedge, Pulley, Inclined Plane, Screw, Wheel & Axle, and Level |
