Question
Answer

🗑
The object which stays in place in relation to an object that is moving   Reference Point  
🗑
The rate at which an object moves;   Speed  
🗑
The speed of an objection in a particular direction   Velocity  
🗑
The rate at which velocity (speed/direction) changes.   Acceleration  
🗑
Acceleration that occurs in a circular motion   Centripetal Acceleration or Centripetal Force  
🗑
A push or pull;   Force  
🗑
an (SI) unit of measurement used by scientists to express force   Newton  
🗑
The force that results from combining all of the forces exerted on an object   Net Force  
🗑
When the net force of an object is not zero   Unbalanced Force  
🗑
When the forces applied to an object produce a net force of zero   Balanced Force  
🗑
Happens when a force causes an object to move in the direction of the force   Work  
🗑
A force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are touching   Friction  
🗑
The force of attraction between all objects that is due to their masses   Gravity  
🗑
The measure of gravitational forces exerted on an object   Weight  
🗑
The tendency of all objects to resist any change in motion   Inertia  
🗑
The characteristic of a moving body that is caused by its mass and its motion   Momentum  
🗑
Speed =   distance/time  
🗑
Velocity involves both speed and _________   Direction  
🗑
Acceleration is any change in ____________   Velocity (speed or direction)  
🗑
A force is a ________ and __________.   Push and pull  
🗑
Two forces that affects motion are ______ and _________   Gravity and friction  
🗑
The force that keeps you in a roller coaster during a looop is called ________________   Centripital Force  
🗑
Combining all of the forces acting on an object gives you _______ ________.   Net Force  
🗑
If forces are working in the same direction, you ______ them   Add.  
🗑
If forces are working in opposite directions, you ______ them.   Subtract  
🗑
A net force of zero means that an object is ____________   Balanced.  
🗑
A net for of 5N left means that an object is ___________.   Un balanced.  
🗑
It always takes a ________ force to move an object or stop it from moving.   Unbalanced.  
🗑
Friction is an _________ force because objects are working against each other.   Unbalanced.  
🗑
Putting oil or water on a surface would _______ friction.   Reduce.  
🗑
PUtting sandpaper on a surface would _______ friction.   Increase.  
🗑
Friction changes the _________ of an object.   Motion  
🗑
Gravity is a force of ________ because objects are pulling toward each other.   Attraction  
🗑
All objects in the universe attract each other through gravitational force. The size of the force depends on the ________ of the object and the ________ between them.   Mass and Distance.  
🗑
The more mass something has the _________ gravitational pull it has.   More.  
🗑
The closer objects are, the, _________ gravitational force they have.   More.  
🗑
When objects are further distance apart, their gravitational force ________   Lessens.  
🗑
Which does NOT change based on gravity? Mass or weight?   Mass.  
🗑
1 Law - Inertia - an object at rest will stay at ________.   Rest  
🗑
An object in motion will stay in _______, unless an ________ force acts upon it.   Motion and Unbalanced  
🗑
2nd LQV^/ - Acceleration - an object's acceleration depends on it's mass and the amount of force exerted on it. As mass increases, acceleration ________________.   Decreases  
🗑
3rd Law Action/Reaction - whenever one object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts an _______ and ________ force on the first object.   Equal and opposite.  
🗑
Machines make work and motion easier because they change the ___________ and/or the amount of the force   Direction  
🗑
Name the six simple machines   Lever, pulley, inclined plane (ramp), wedge, wheel and axle, screw.  
🗑
Name the three parts of the lever.   Fulcrum, load (resistance), force.  
🗑
Ona lst class lever, the ______ is in the middle.   Fulcrum.  
🗑
Moving the fulcrum closer to the load/resistance   Decreases the effort.  
🗑
On a 2nd class lever, the _ _____ is in the middle.   Load  
🗑
On a 3rd class lever, the _______ is in the middle   Effort  
🗑
Fixed/Simple pulleys only change the ______ of the force.   Direction  
🗑
Moveable pulleys change the _ ______ of the force   Amount.  
🗑
When a machine reduces the effort, it is called a mechanical __________.   Adventage  
🗑
