  • What are the units of measurement for time? There are 3!
    seconds, minutes, hours
  • How far an object has traveled refers to its-
    distance
  • a force that slows down or stops the movement of two objects that come into contact with each other
    friction
  • To find the net force of an object with vector arrows moving in the same direction, you need to-
    add
  • How does mass affect the acceleration of an object?
    The greater the mass, acceleration decreases. The lesser the mass, acceleration increases.
  • What happens to the motion of an object with a net force of zero?
    it remains at rest
  • If an object is at rest, there are no forces acting upon it. TRUE or FALSE?
    FALSE
  • Forces come in pairs: True or False?
    True
  • Distance traveled over time is-
    speed
  • Which Newton's Law of Motion applies to the following description? A passenger diving off the side of a sailboat.
    Newton's Third Law of Motion
  • Which Newton's Law of Motion matches this description? Planets orbiting around the sun.
    Newton's First Law of Motion
  • Which Newton's Law states "the more mass an object has, more force is required to accelerate it"
    Newton's Second Law of Motion
  • this makes an object resist a change in motion
    inertia
  • The Law of Acceleration is another name for -
    Newton's 2nd Law
  • How long it takes for an object to travel from one point to another is called-
    time
  • The Law of Action-Reaction is another name for -
    Newton's 3rd Law
  • mph, mps, km/s, mpm can all refer to an object's
    speed
  • Which Newton's Law of Motion states "the more force that is applied to an object, the more it will accelerate"?
    Newton's Second Law of Motion
  • What are the units of measurement for distance?
    kilometers, meters, miles
  • Force=Mass x Acceleration applies to which Newton's Law of Motion?
    Newton's Second Law of Motion
  • change in speed and direction of an object
    velocity
  • change in an object's motion
    acceleration
  • The Law of Inertia is another name for-
    Newton's 1st Law
  • forces that do not cause a change in motion
    balanced forces
  • unit of measurement for force
    Newtons
  • How does the amount of force used affect the acceleration of an object?
    The amount of forced used affects the distance that an object will be able to accelerate.
  • Which Newton's Law of Motion states "An object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force"?
    Newton's First Law of Motion
  • Balanced or Unbalanced? An object traveling at a constant speed in the same direction.
    balanced
  • The Law of Inertia is another name for which Newton's Law of Motion?
    Newton's First Law of Motion
  • a push or a pull
    force
  • The initial force acting on an object
    action force
  • total amount of forces acting on an object
    net force
  • The formula to calculate average speed is-
    speed=distance/time
  • Inertia is dependent on -
    mass of the object
  • the force reacting to an initial applied force is called a-
    reaction force
  • The formula used to calculate force is -
    force=mass x acceleration
  • 2 forces that are unequal in size and cause a change in motion
    unbalanced forces
  • Which Newton's Law states "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction"?
    Newton's Third Law of Motion
  • To find the net force of vector arrows moving in opposite directions, you need to-
    subtract
