        Help!  

Question
Answer
Newton's first law of motion   An object at rest stays at rest or an object that is moving at a speed in a straight direction keeps moving at that speed unless another force acts on it  
🗑
Newton's second law of motion   The amount of force needed to make an object change its momentum depends on the mass of the object and the acceleration required  
🗑
Newton's third law of motion   For every action there is an equal and opposite action (or force)  
🗑
Acceleration   the rate of change in velocity  
🗑
velocity   describes the speed and direction of an object  
🗑
Mass   the amount of an object  
🗑
Terminal   the greatest velocity a falling object reaches  
🗑
Horizontal   velocity parallel to the Earth's surface  
🗑
Centripetal   the force on an object pulling toward the center of a circular path  
🗑
Speed   the rate of change in position (or rate of motion)  
🗑
Rate   ratio between two different quantities  
🗑
Inertia   property of a body that resists any change in velocity/the ability of an object to stay still or keep on going  
🗑
Rest   zero velocity  
🗑
Momentum   mass of an object multiplied by its velocity  
🗑
Air Resistance   upward force of air against a moving object  
🗑
Vertical   velocity in an up or down direction  
🗑
Newtons   unit of measurement for force  
🗑
Force   a push or pull exerted on one body by another  
🗑
Forces always come in _______   pairs  
🗑
Two objects with the same velocity must be moving in the same _______   direction  
🗑
Gravity   a force that acts on all objects on Earth  
🗑
Friction   the force that opposes the motion of two touching surfaces  
🗑
Pressure   amount of force per unit area  
🗑


   

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.
