| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are Simple Machines? | Simple machines are machines that make work easier. |
| What is Mass? | Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object. |
| What is Force? | Force is a push or a pull. |
| What is Friction? | Friction is a force that causes objects in motion to speed up or slow down when two surfaces rub together. |
| What is Speed? | Speed is a measure of how far an object moves in a certain amount of time. |
| What is Motion? | Motion is a movement, or a change in an objects position. |
| What is Position? | Position is a place where an object is located. |
| What is Gravity? | Gravity is a force that pulls things toward earth. |
| What happens if there is more Friction? | The more friction the more an object in motion slows down. |
| What if an object is light? | The lighter the object the less force you need to get it in motion. |
| What happens when you apply more force to something? | The more force applied the more energy is released. |
| What does force do? | Forces make things speed up slow down or change direction. Without force a still object remains still and a moving object would keep moving. |
| What happens when there's more mass? | The more mass something has the more force required to move it. |
| What are some types of forces? | Magnetic force, pushes and pulls, Gravity, air resistance, and friction. |
| Fun Fact | Forces are constantly battling each other. Unbalanced forces move and balanced forced don't. |
| What are Unbalanced forces? | Unbalanced forces happen when one side is greater force in one direction. This will cause the object to move in the direction the greater force is going. |
| what are balanced forces? | Balanced forces are two equal forces acting in opposite direction. Because it is balanced the object does not move. |
