Term
Definition
System   A group of individual parts or procedures that work together to accomplish a desired task.  
🗑
Components   All the different parts of a system.  
🗑
Work   the amount of effort spent when a force causes an object to move a distance.  
🗑
Force   A push or pull that acts on an object.  
🗑
Contact Force   forces that must touch the object that they push or pull.  
🗑
Friction   A force that opposes the relative motion of an object.  
🗑
Mass   The amount of matter in an object.  
🗑
Weight   The amount of force on an object due to gravity.  
🗑
Mechanical System   A group of physical parts that interact with each other.  
🗑
Energy   the ability to do work.  
🗑
Kinetic Energy   Then energy when an object moves  
🗑
Potential Energy   When an object stores its energy to do work later.  
🗑
Gravitational Potential Energy   The potential energy of an object that is able to fall  
🗑
Gravity   Is the attraction between two objects due to their mass. The amount of attraction depends upon the amount of each object’s mass and the distance between the two objects.  
🗑
Mechanical Advantage   The amount by which a machine can multiply an input force  
🗑
Ideal Mechanical Advantage   The mechanical advantage of a machine that has no friction  
🗑
Action-at-Distance   Forces that push or pull an object without touching it. Gravity, static electricity, and magnetism produce action-at-a-distance forces.  
🗑
Spring Scale   It can measure forces other than weight  
🗑
Machine   is any mechanical system that reduces the force required to accomplish work  
🗑
Input Force   The force that is applied to the machine  
🗑
Output Force   The force that the machine applies to the object  
🗑


   

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.
