Force & Motion
5th Grade - FL Standards
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| gravity | a force that pulls objects to or keeps on the ground on Earth, without having to touch the object |
| always | When does gravity start to pull items down to the ground? |
| pull | Which forced is used when drawing a bow and arrow? |
| mass | a measurement of how much "stuff" or matter is inside an object. |
| less | the ______ mass an object has, the farther it should travel compared to other objects if the same amount of force is applied. |
| child | if the same amount of force is applied, who should swing higher - an adult or a child? |
| more | the _____ mass an object has, the less it will travel compared to other objects if the same amount of force is applied. |
| force | if an object has a lot of mass, _____ will have a smaller effect. |
| push | Which force is typically used when moving a baby stroller? |
| hypothesis | a testable explanation for an observation based on existing knowledge and evidence |
| unbalanced force | when there is more force or pressure on or in an object compared to another object, such as a balloon that is blown up very big. |
| force | If you are hitting baseballs that are all thrown with the same amount of force and you hit one ball really far, you most likely applied more ______ to that ball. |
| motion | force effects the ___________ of an object. |
| balanced force | keeps objects still. |
| more force | The more mass an object has, the _____________ is needed to move the object. |
| magnetic | A force that can push or pull certain metal objects without having to touch it. |
| motion | continues until acted on by another force. |
| distance force | A force that works without touching (like gravity and magnetism). |
| friction | A force that slows motion when two surfaces rub against each other. |
| inertia | an object's resistance to any change in its state of motion, meaning how easy or difficult it is to start or stop moving. |
| slow | The more mass an item has, the longer it will take to ______ down. |
| less | The ______ mass something has, the farther it will travel compared to other items when the same amount of force is used to move them. |
