Question
Answer
accelerate   rate at which the velocity changes  
🗑
acceleration includes   rate of slowing down, speeding up, going backwards and turning  
🗑
Acceleration formula   final velocity-starting velocity time it takes to change velocity  
🗑
Acceleration is expressed as   (m/s/s)  
🗑
increase in speed   positive acceleration  
🗑
decrease in speed   deceleration  
🗑
Motion is calculated by using a   reference point  
🗑
speed is   the distance traveled and how long it took you to get there  
🗑
speed average formula   total distance total time  
🗑
velocity   the rate of an object going in a certain direction  
🗑
velocity always includes   change in direction  
🗑
circular acceleration is called   centripetal acceleration  
🗑
scientists use newton's to measure   force  
🗑
force doesn't always cause something to   move  
🗑
Force means   to push or pull  
🗑
net force   the result of combining all the forces put on an object  
🗑
net force formula   larger net force- smaller net force =the final direction  
🗑
Unbalanced forces cause    
🗑
objects can move when   unbalanced forces are removed  
🗑
friction   a force that opposes motion of two touching surfaces  
🗑
friction is increased by   rougher surfaces  
🗑
turning an object into a different position does not effect the   amount of friction  
🗑
Sliding friction   friction caused by two surfaces sliding past each other  
🗑
Rolling friction   wheels on another surface  
🗑
fluid friction   opposes movement through fluids  
🗑
static friction   opposes motion  
🗑
lubricants   used to reduce friction  
🗑
gravity   attraction of two or more objects  
🗑
law of gravity   crated by newton  
🗑
gravity force increases   mass increases  
🗑
gravity decreases   distance  
🗑
weight   measurement of gravity  
🗑
mass   measurement of matter  
🗑


   

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.
