QuestionAnswer
What is the result of an unbalanced force? Motion
How do you know if an object is in motion? Its position changes
Speed and velocity are a measure of how fast an object moves; however, velocity includes a _____ direction
An object is in free fall if _____ is the only force acting on the object. Gravity, actual rate is 9.8
Acceleration due to gravity is ___ m/s2 (10 m/s2). 9.8 m/s
Assuming gravity is the only force acting on an object, ALL OBJECTS FALL AT THE SAME ____ (NOT NECESSARILY THE SAME SPEED) acceleration or rate
____ was the first to study gravity and its effects. Issac Newton
____Friction- two objects touch, one or neither does not move Static
_____Friction-two objects touch and one slides past another Sliding
_____-two objects touch and one rolls past another Rolling
Mass does not change from location to location; however, ___ does (because of gravity). weight
Objects fall to Earth’s surface because of Earth’s large _____. (it’s really big!) Gravitational Pull
Gravitational pull depends on ___ and _____. Mass and distance
Know: ____ forces do not CHANGE motion. (net force is 0 N) Balenced
Gravity is a ____. Every object exerts a gravitational force on every other object. force
A force is a ___ or ___ and these forces cause motion! push or pull
______ is the combination of all of the forces acting on an object. Know how to determine net force! The net force
____ is a force that slows motion. Friction
Acceleration is a change in velocity’s rate. Acceleration is a change in ___ or ____ (or both). time or direction
Deceleration is a decrease in ____. (Know what this looks like on a velocity/time graph) speed
What does Newton’s first law state? Every object at rest wants to stay in rest and objects in motion want to stay in motion.
What does Newton’s second law state? The unbalanced force acting on an object equals the object’s mass times its acceleration.
What does Newton’s third law state? Every action as an equal and opposite reaction
_____ is the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion. This explains why seatbelts are in cars.) Intertia
Objects move in the direction of the greatest _____ force

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
