        Help!  

Question
Answer
Definition of contact forces   Forces that physically require a push or pull  
🗑
All the contact forces   Applied, Normal, Tension, Spring, Air Resistance, and Friction  
🗑
Definition of applied force   A physical push or pull that a person or object applies  
🗑
Definition of normal force   A support force  
🗑
Definition of tension force   Stretching  
🗑
Definition of spring force   Compressing  
🗑
Definition of air resistance   Air resisting motion  
🗑
Definition of friction   The force that opposes motion when two objects are in contact. It is not a contact force on the atomic level.  
🗑
Definition of field forces   Forces that do not require a physical touch and work over a distance  
🗑
All the field forces   Gravity, Magnatism, and Electricity  
🗑
Definition of gravity   Two or more objects having a natural attractive force  
🗑
What gravity is dependent on   The mass of an object  
🗑
Definition of magnetism   The force between magnets  
🗑
Definition of electricity   Charges of atoms  
🗑
Definition of Agent   What is doing the force  
🗑
Definition of Receiver   What is receiving the force  
🗑
What a free body diagram is   what shows relative magnitude and direction of all forces acting on an object  
🗑
when an unbalanced force exists   when the vertical and horizontal forces do not cancel each other out  
🗑
what an interaction is   mutual action  
🗑
Newton realized that a ______ is not a thing in itself but part of a ________   force, mutual action  
🗑
Exact definition of Newton's third law   Whenever one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object  
🗑
One force is called_______ force. The other force is called _____ force. It doesnt matter which force we call ____ and which we call _____.   action force, reaction force, action, reaction  
🗑
In every ________, the forces always ________.   interaction, occur in pairs  
🗑
Newton's 3rd law in simple terms   for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction  
🗑


   

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.
