The tendency for an object to resist change in motion No inertia
An object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion until acted upon by an outside force newtons 1st law
A change in speed or direction depends on an objects mass and overall net force acting on the object newtons 2nd law
With every action there is an equal and opposite reaction newtons 3rd law
A characteristic of a moving object that is related to the mass and velocity of the object momentum

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.
