  • Is it a magnetic material?
    It's magnetic.
  • Is it a magnetic material?
    It's not magnetic.
  • What is applied force?
    A force that you exert when you push or pull on an object.
  • Is it a magnetic material?
    It's magnetic.
  • What is friction?
    The force that creates resistance between to objects.
  • What is a magnetic material?
    A material that is attracted to a magnet.
  • What is gravity?
    The force that pulls everything towards the center of the Earth.
  • What is the Earth's natural satellite?
    It's the Moon.
  • What does force A represent?
    Force A represents gravity.
  • Would a parachute falling towards the Moon's surface fall faster or slower than a parachute falling towards Earth?
    Faster. Because there is no air resistance on the Moon.
  • What force is it?
    It's gravity.
  • Why can't you put a ball under the water and have it stay there?
    Because upthrust pushes in back up.
  • What force is it?
    It's applied force.
  • Is it a magnetic material?
    It's not magnetic.
  • Is it a magnetic material?
    It's not magnetic.
  • What is water resistance?
    Friction in water; the force that slows things down that are moving through the water
  • What is a satellite?
    It's an object in space that orbits a larger object.
  • What force is it?
    It's gravity.
  • What force is it?
    It's normal force.
  • If the parachute was larger, would the person fall faster, slower, or at the same speed?
    They would fall slower.
  • What is a weather satellite?
    It's an artificial satellite that photographs clouds as it orbits the Earth.
  • What is an artificial satellite?
    A man-made object in space that orbits a larger object.
  • Name an artificial satellite.
    For example, the International Space Station.
  • What does force B represent?
    Force B represents air resistance.
