| Question | Answer |
| 1. What is velocity? | The rate of change of position with respect to time |
| 2. What is speed? | how fast an object is moving |
| 3. What is distance? | the total length of the path an object travels, regardless of its initial or final position |
| 4. What is energy? | ability to do work, which is the ability to exert a force causing displacement of an object |
| 5. What is mass? | a measurement that refers to the amount of matter that makes up an object |
| 6. What is gravity? | a measurement that refers to the amount of matter that makes up an object |
| 7. What is work? | is the transfer of energy by a force acting on an object as it is displaced |
| 8. What is Electricity? | is a movement of charge |
| 9. What is Voltage? | is the "push" that drives electric current through a circuit, while current is the flow of electric charge |
| 10. What is an Electric field? | an electric property associated with each point in space when charge is present in any form |
| 11. What is a Magnetic field? | an area around a magnet, moving electric charge, or changing electric field where a magnetic force can be detected |
| 12. What is Static Electricity? | it refers to the build-up of electrical charge on an object that does not flow, unlike current electricity |
| 13. What is Current Electricity? | the flow of electricity in an electronic circuit, and to the amount of electricity flowing through a circuit |
| 14. What is Force? | a push or pull that can cause an object to accelerate |
| 15. What is momentum? | a measure of the amount of motion an object possesses |
| 16. What is Acceleration? | the rate at which an object's velocity changes over time |
| 17. What is Newton's first law? | An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force |
| 18. What is Newton's second law? | the force acting on an object is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration, expressed as F = ma |
| 19. What is Newton's third law? | for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction |
| 20. What is an Inelastic collision? | a collision where the objects stick together |
