| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Reference pont | The statting point you use to descrbe the motion of the post on of an ofue |
| Poisition | An objects distanc and direction from a reference point |
| Displacement | The difference between initial or starling, postion ahd the final pasiton of an obvect that has moves. |
| Motion | The process of chainging position |
| Speed | The distance an abject moves divided by the time it takes to move the distance |
| Velocity | The speed and the direction of a moving object |
| Aceleration | A measure of the change in Velocity during a period of time |
| Distance - time graph | A graph that Shows how distance and time are related |
| Speed-time graph | A graph that shows the speed of a object on the y-axis on the are to on the x-axis |
| Force | A push or pull of an object |
| Contact force | a push or pull on one object by another object that is toachong it. |
| Noncontact force | A force that one object applies to another object without toaching it |
| Gravity | An attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass |
| Friction | A contact force that resists the sliding motion of two surfaces that are touching. |
| Air resiance. | The fricion force between air and objects moving ethrough it. |
| Newton's first law of motion | Law that states that if a net force acting on an obiect is zero, the motion of the object does not change |
| Newton's second law of motion | Lah that States that the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force eterted on the objects divided by the object's mass |
| Newton's third law of motion | Law thar states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. |
