| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| acceleration can be what three changes? | positive, negative, or zero |
| helpful vs. harmful friction | helpful- brake pads in your car bowling ball on a bowling lane harmful- fluid flowing through a pipe |
| kinetic vs. static friction | kinetic- car driving down a road static- car parked in a drive way |
| kinetic vs. static friction which is greater | kinetic |
| positive vs. negative acceleration | positive acceleration- a car moving forward negative acceleration- car is at the top of the hill and it goes backward |
| speed vs. velocity | speed- how fast your going velocity- a speed that includes a direction |
| ways to increase/decrease friction | increase friction- adding something slippery decrease friction- roughen the surface |
| the combination of all the forces acting on an object | net force |
| whats newton's first law | an object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion maintains its velocity unless it experiences unbalanced forces |
| describes the effect of an unbalanced force on the motion of an object | newton's second law |
| force= | mass times acceleration |
| for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction | newton's third law |
| newton's third law is also called | law of action and reaction |
| all matter is affected by | gravity |
| when gravitational force increases so does | mass |
| when gravity is the only force acting on an object, the object is said to be in | free fall |
| because weight is a force the si unit of weight is the | newton |
| weight is different from | mass |
| weight influences | shape |
| newton's first law is sometimes called | law of inertia |
| object has less inertia than an object with a | larger mass |
