QuestionAnswer
Sir Isaac Newton graduated from what University? Cambridge University
Sir Isaac Newton’s theories are based on what type of science? The basis of the Laws of Motion and definition of forces
What happens when you add additional forces to the original force? Force is added and combined forces act in the same direction.
In Newton’s law, two forces of equal strength act as what? On the same object in opposite direction
In plain basic understanding of the 3rd Law, what does it mean? The forces are equal in strength, but opposite in direction.
What is Newton’s 3rd Law? One object exerts force on a second object and the second object on the first
What is Newton’s 2nd Law? Newton’s 2nd Law is force equaling mass times acceleration. Force=Mass X Acceleration
What is the differences between inertia in large and small objects? Large, heavy objects have more inertia than small, lighter objects
What is inertia? It’s the tendency of an object to resist any change in motion
What is Newton’s 1st Law? An object at rest will stay at rest An object in motion will keep the same speed and direction.
What does Uniform in motion mean? It means the speed in an object stays the same
What is known as motion without acceleration? Uniform motion
What is known as the rate of speed in an object? Acceleration
What are the three motions that change in an object? Speed up, Slow down, or changes direction
What is made of two inclined planes and used to push objects apart? A wedge
What is an inclined plane wrapped in a spiral? A screw
What uses wheels and a rope to raise, lower, or move a load? A pulley
What is used to carry loads around easily for long distances with less effort? A wheel and axle
What is any slope or ramp that makes it easier to lift something? An inclined plane
What is a rod balanced on a fixed point that can help lift a heavy weight with less effort? A Lever
What are the two magnetic forces that pull together in a magnet and that repel from each other in a magnet? N to S or S to N = pull together N to N and S to S = repel each other
What are forces that pull together or push away due to their north or south magnetic poles? Magnetic Forces
What are forces between objects that are electrically charged? Electric Forces
What is non-contact force, it pulls objects towards itself, like the Earth? Gravity
What are the three non-contact examples? Magnetic forces, Electric forces, & Gravity
What is a type of force that acts as a distance? Non-contact
What is the force that results when two materials rub against each other? Friction
What force is known as either pushing or pulling an object? Contact Force
What is force measured in units of? Newtons
What is defined as the push or pull that acts on an object? Force

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
