Question Answer
Force Interaction of two objects, changing motion
Attractive Force Gravity- 2 masses
Contact Force 2 Forces interacting (ie friction)
Gravitational force Weight
Weight =Matter (massxgravity)
Mass Amount of Matter making up object
All objects have same acceleration due to gravity= 9.81 Except when cancelled out by air resistance
Terminal Velocity Objects reach velocity where no further acceleration occurs
Newton's Law of Inertia (Law 1) Velocity does not change unless a resultant external force is placed upon it
Newton's Law of Acceleration Resultant force and rate of change is proportionate to direct force
Newton's Law of Reaction For every force there is an equal and opposite force
