Chpt. 5 Motion

Chapter 5 motion science

QuestionAnswer
Change in position over time relative to a reference point Motion
Common Reference Point Earth's Surface
Distance/Time Speed
Speed doesn't change Constant Speed
Total Distance/Total Time Average Speed
Object that travels at a normal speed Average Speed
Speed in a given direction Velocity
Combine Velocities by adding or subtracting Resultant Velocities
Combine Velocities in the same direction Adding
Combine Velocities in opposite directions Subtracting
Rate of change in Velocity Acceleration
Increase in Acceleration Positive Acceleration
Decrease in Acceleration Negative Acceleration or Deceleration
Push or Pull and Expressed in Newtons Force
Combination of all of the forces acting on an object Net Force
Force applied in same direction Balanced Force
Net Force is... Zero Newtons
Object at...will stay at... Rest, Rest
Combined Net Force Doesn't equal Zero
A Force that opposes Motion between two surfaces that come in contact with each other Friction
2 types of Friction Kinetic and Static Friction
Friction between two moving objects Kinetic Friction
Friction between two NOT moving objects Static Friction
Use Lubricants or Smoother Surfaces Reduce Friction
Make surfaces rougher Increase Friction
Force of Attraction between objects due to their masses Gravity
Stated that gravity is a invisible force which can cause objects to move Sir Issac Newton
Gravitational Force... as mass increases Increases
Gravitational Force... as distance increases Decreases
Weight Depends on the Force of Matter
A measure of the force of gravity and measured in Newtons Weight
...is Amount Mass

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.
