Question | Answer |
what is average speed? | when you divide the distance traveled by the time it takes to travel the distance. |
whats is instantaneous speed? | the speed of an object at any instant of time. |
what is velocity? | the speed of an object and its direction of motion. |
what is acceleration? | the changge in velocity divided by the time needed for change to occur. |
what three ways can speed be described? | constant,instantaneous,average |
when does velocity change? | when the speed changes,the direction of motion changes. |
what is force? | a push or pull measured in nuetrons. |
what is newton's laws of motion? | a set of rules developed by Issac Newton to explain how forces affect the motion of an object. |
what is inertia? | tendency to resist a change in motion. |
what is friction? | force that resists slidinng motion between two touching surfaces;always acts opposite to the direction of motion. |
what is newton's 1st law? | an object will not change its mmotion unless an unbalanced force acts upon it |
what is newton's 2nd law? | if an object is acted upon by a force,the acceleration of the object will be in the direction of the force divided by the mass |
what is newton's 3rd law? | when one object exerts a force on a second object,the second object exerts anequal force iin the opposite direction on the first object. |
