| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Short Acceleration(rate) | Rate velocity changes |
| Short Acceleration(equation) | Acceleration = Velocity/time |
| Short Acceleration(scalar or vector) | Vector – requires both magnitude & direction |
| Short Acceleration(changes) | Speed or direction changes |
| Short Average Speed(equation) | Speed=distance/time |
| Short Constant | value does not change |
| Short Constant | Does not change in the experiment |
| Short Displacement | Change position of object |
| Short Displacement(how to measure) | Shortest distance between beginning & ending point |
| Short Force | action exerted on body to change state of rest or motion |
| Short Force(scalar or vector) | force has magnitude and direction |
| Short Force(two words) | A push or pull |
| Short Force | Any action that changes the state of motion |
| Short Frame of reference | System of points for determining location of objects in space of time |
| Short Friction | Force opposing motion(keeping motion from happening) |
| Short Fundamental | Basic |
| Short Instantaneous Speed | Speed measured in an infinitely small interval |
| Short Instantaneous Speed | Speed at any given time |
| Short Kinetic | friction Frictional Force that slows motion |
| Short Kinetic Friction(motion or stationary) | motion |
| Short Magintude | How big, size |
| Short Motion | Objects change in position relative to a reference point and time. |
| Short Motion | Changing positions |
| Short Scalar | Size or magnitude only no direction |
| Short Speed | Rate position changes with respect to time |
