Term
Definition
Speed   The rate at which an object's moves  
🗑
Average Speed   Speed= distances divided by time/DISTANCE,TIME  
🗑
Velocity   Tells the rate an object's moves and in which direction it moves ***Think of the air traffic controller  
🗑
Acceleration   Change in velocity(speed and direction) of movement and direction of an object (Think of car) **a car going at the same speed but turning or going into a curve  
🗑
Force   In science the push or pull between objects  
🗑
Mass   The amount of matter making up an object  
🗑
Independent variable   What you change in your experiment or its the variable that you are testing  
🗑
Gravity   Its changes the independent variable  
🗑
Inertia   1) The tendency of all objects to resists a change in motion 2) The more mass an objects has the more inertia it has  
🗑
Dependent Variable   It's what we measure: the information you put in the data table *Changes the independent variable *Does not depend on anything else (stands alone)  
🗑
NewtonĊ› 1st law of motion   Effect of balanced and unbalanced forces of an object at the rest and on an object in motion  
🗑
Newton's 2nd law of motion   The amount of force needed to accelerate an object. It depends upon the mass of the object  
🗑
Mass VS. Weight   Mass- Does not change location Weight- It does not change location. A measure of the force of gravity  
🗑
Energy    
🗑
Assumption    
🗑
Balanced Force    
🗑
Unbalanced Force    
🗑
Vectors    
🗑
Resultant    
🗑
Frame of Reference    
🗑
unit for volume   cm  
🗑
unit for liquid   mL
