Physics-Force/Motion

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Acceleration   change of velocity over time (increasing, decreasing, or changing direction)  
🗑
Constant acceleration   a steady change in velocity (free falling near the surface of the Earth)  
🗑
Speed-time graphs   speed axis and time axis combine to show the acceleration via the slope  
🗑
Negative acceleration   when an object is slowing down over time  
🗑
Positive acceleration   when an object is speeding up or gaining speed  
🗑
Unbalanced forces   cause an object to move or accelerate  
🗑
Balanced forces   does not move and net force equals zero  
🗑
Inertia   property of matter that resists change  
🗑
Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion   acceleration of an object is equal to the net force acting on it divided by the object’s mass  
🗑
Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion   one object exerts force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object (action/reaction forces)  
🗑
Centripetal force   force that keeps an object moving in a circle  
🗑
Speed    
🗑
Velocity   v = d/t  
🗑
Weight   mass x acceleration due to gravity  
🗑


   

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.
