Science Words

An object at rest, stays at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion, in the same direction and speed...unless acted on by a force.

An object's acceleration depends on the size and direction of the force, and the mass of the object.

When an object is speeding up. Increase in velocity with respect to time.

how fast an object’s position changes with time at any given moment. Distance ÷ Time.

Unbalanced Forces:

: how far from each other two points or places are

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

How much matter is in an object

forces that cancel each other out when acting together on a single object

to become smaller or less in size, number, or amount.

The tendency of an object to stay in motion or stay still.

The location of an object in relation to a known object.

the thing that is measured as seconds, minutes, hours, days, years, etc

A force that opposes the motion of one object moving past another. It slows things down and stops them.

when an object slows down, meaning its velocity decreases over time.

A change in position compared to the starting location, which happens over a period of time

A change in position compared to the starting location, which happens over a period of time

Not in motion

a push or pull exerted by one object on another, causing a change in motion.

to make something bigger or add more to it, making it greater in number, size, or amount
