| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What type of force: Fg | (Gravity) Always present |
| What type of force: Fs | (Spring) Force from compressed/stretched spring |
| What type of force: Ft | (Tension) Force from string, rope, wire, cable, etc. |
| What type of force: Ff | (friction) Two surfaces sliding across each other |
| What type of force: F(air) | (air) Object moves through surrounding air |
| What type of force: Fn | (Normal) Results from two surfaces pressing against each other |
| What type of force: FA | (Applied) A person pushing/pulling on an object |
| A ___ is a push or a pull resulting from the object's interaction with another object. | force |
| Force is what type of quantity? | vector |
| If the net force is zero, the object will | stay at rest |
| Forces can be used to increase or decrease the speed of an object or to change the __________ an object is moving. | direction |
| What is the property of an object that resists changes in motion? | Inertia |
| Objects with more mass have more inertia and are _____ resistant to changes in ther motion. | more |
| A _____ is the amount of force need to accelerate a 1kg object by 1m/s. | newton |
| ____________ forces cause changes in speed, direction, or both. | unbalanced |
| If there is NO accelration, the net force MUST be | zero |
| Newton's third law tells us that any time two objects hit each other, they EXERT _______ and opposite forces on each other | equal |
| _______________ is the mass of a an object times its velocity | momentum |
| The law of ______________ of momentum states that as long as the interacting objects are not influenced by outside sources, the total amount of momentum is constant or does not change. | conservation |
