| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| displacement | the difference between the initial or starting position and the final position. |
| speed | a measure of the distance an abject travels in a given amount of time |
| velocity | is the speed and derection of a moving object |
| vector | a quantity that has both mangatude and derection |
| acceleration | a measure of the change in velocity during a period of time. |
| force | is a push or a pull on an object |
| contact force | isa a push or a pull on one object by another object by touching it. |
| newtons second law | states the acceleration of an object equals the net force on the object divided by its mass |
| fritction | is a force that resists the sliding of two surface that are touching |
| free body diagram | is a simple model to under stand systems with objects with anyamount of applied forces. |
| net force | is the sum of all the forces acting on an object |
| newtons first law | states that an object in motion will stay in motion and an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted on by a force. |
| inertia | an objects ability to resists any change in motion |
| non contact force | a force that one object can apply to another object without touching it. |
| gravity | attractive force that exist between all object that has mass. |
| field | a region of space that has a phisycle quantityat every point |
| weight | a gravitational force exerted on an object. |
| motion | the process of changing position . |
| force pairs | the force two objects apply to each other |
| normal forces | the force that pushes perpending to an object surface |
| elastic collision | when two objects collides they bounce off from each other |
| inalastic collision | when two objects collide and stick together |
| reference point | is the starting point you choose to describe the location or position of an object. |
| position | an objects distance and derection from a reference point. |
| newton third law | states that when an object applies a force on another object. |
