Question Answer
What is a push or pull exerted on matter? Force
Force: Gives motion to matter in a given direction.
Matter will _____ when force is applied. Accelerate;(Speed up, Slow down, or Change direction;)
What will motion be in the direction of? Force
Forces are indicated with a: Vector (arrow) that has magnitude (value) and direction
What is a push or a pull an example of? Common Forces
What force causes an object to go back to its original shape? Elastic Forces
What is an opposing force created when matter touches or rubs against other matter? Friction
What is an inward pulling force that causes matter in outer space to form spheres? Gravity
What force is the combination of all forces acting on an object? Net Force
What are the two things that Net Force does? 1. Determines whether the object moves; 2. Determines which direction the object moves in;
What direction will an object move? The direction of the greatest force.
If an object moves, the forces are _____. Unbalanced
If an object does not move, the forces are _____. Balanced
What is the sum of balanced forces? 0
If the Net Forces equal zero, the object has a _____. State of Equilibrium
What forces do not equal zero? Unbalanced Forces
Net force does not equal zero, so _____. A change in velocity or acceleration will occur
When is the motion of an object in a state of equilibrium? When it is at Rest or in a Constant State of Velocity
The longer the arrow: The stronger the force
Draw the arrow in the direction of the _____. Force
What label do you write for each force arrow? (N) Newtons
If values are given, arrows going in the opposite direction must be _____ from each other to find the net force. Subtracted
Arrows going in the same direction must be _____ to each other to find the net force. Added
Newton's Second Law explains: The relationship between force, mass, and acceleration
If mass does not change, an increase in _____ will cause an increase in _____. Force, Acceleration
If force does not change an increase in _____ will cause a decrease in _____. Mass, Acceleration
What is the formula for force? Force (N) = Mass (kg) * Acceleration (m/s ²) F = MA
The direction an object travels in a given amount of time is: Speed
Speed in a given direction is: Velocity
What is the formula for speed? Speed = Distance/Time S = D/T
What is the formula for velocity? Velocity = Distance/Time V=D/T
What do the formulas represent? The average speed; (Total distance/ Total Time)
The change in speed in a given amount of time is: Acceleration
Acceleration is how long it takes to: Speed Up, Slow Down, or Change Direction
What are the standard units for acceleration? m/s/s or m/s ²
What is the formula for acceleration? Acceleration = Vf - Vi/T
A train is resting on a track when another train with several more cars bumps into it and causes it to move 10 meters forward. This is an example of acceleration because: an unbalanced force causes the train to keep moving.
A student conducts an experiment where he drops two balls off a table to determine the force of impact. The ball with a larger mass makes a bigger dent in the sandpit than the ball with the smaller mass. This describes Newton's Second Law because: increasing the mass of a moving object increase the force exerted. (F = ma)
A dog is chasing you at a speed of 10 m/s to the west. You are running away from him at a speed of 8 m/s to the west. This scenario describes velocity because: velocity is speed with a direction.
