| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Force | Any push or pull |
| Gravity | The pulling force |
| Mass | Amount of Matter |
| Weight | The amount of gravitational force |
| Friction | Force that opposes motion and produces heat |
| Air Resistance | Friction that exists between any object and the atmosphere |
| Balanced Forces | Force that is equal in size and opposite in direction |
| Net Force | Forces that are unequal or unbalanced |
| Potential Energy | Energy possessed due to its mass position or condition |
| Kinetic Energy | Energy possessed due to its motion mass and velocity |
| Thermal Energy | The total amount of Kinetic energy in the particles of a substance |
| Inertia | The property of matter that resists changes in speed and direction |
| Newton | Unit of measure |
| Velocity | The speed and direction of a moving object |
| Newton discovered that one could calculate gravity's pull with just two factors. Those Factors are?? | Mass and Distance |
