Questiona
Answer
acceleration   This is the rate at which velocity changes.  
🗑
balanced forces   This is when forces are combined and there is a zero net force and no change in motion.  
🗑
motion   You can tell that this has occured because an object's position has changed compared to its reference point.  
🗑
net force   This is the resulting force when two or more forces are combined.  
🗑
speed   This is the distance covered in a period of time.  
🗑
unbalanced forces   When forces are combined, this results in a net force and causes a change in motion.  
🗑
reference point   This is an object that seems to stay still.  
🗑
velocity   This is the speed of an object in a given direction.  
🗑
action force   The force that is put on an object.  
🗑
gravity   This is the invisible attaction obetween two objects. Its strength depends on mass and distance.  
🗑
inertia   This is the tendency of objects to resist changes in motion.  
🗑
momentum   This is the measure of an object's motion based on mass and velocity.  
🗑
weight   This measures the force of gravity on an objcet.  
🗑
reaction force   This is the force that an object puts back onto the object putting a force on it.  
🗑
F = MA   This is the formula associtated with Newton's 2nd Law.  
🗑
Newton's Second Law   An example of this law is the harder you kick a soccer ball the farther it will go.  
🗑
Newton's Third Law   An example of this law is when you put a force on a table leg with your toe, the table leg puts a force back on your toe.  
🗑
Newton's First Law   The reason we wear seatbelts can be explained by using this law of motion.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
