acceleration
a change to an object's speed
compress
to squeeze or press
force
A push or a pull
friction
a force acting between surfaces in contact.
gravity
the natural attraction between masses.
interaction
to act on and be acted upon by one or more objects
magnet
an object that responds to magnetic force
net force
the sum of all the forces acting on a mass
newton
the standard unit for measuring force in the metric system
shaft
the part of a motor that rotates when energy is transferred to it
spring scale
an instrument used to measure force
weight
the force of gravity on a mass
Kinetic energy
energy of motion
Energy
the ability to apply force over a distance
greater the mass
the (blank), the more force needed to move it
a push or pull...
can involve more than one force
forces can be combined
to make a net force
no object will start to move unless...
a force is excerted on it
the force needed to push an object...
is the same force needed to push it (equal)
net force
the sum of all forces acting on an object
friction
a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact
eon energy
ability to do work, causes things to move
kinetic energy
energy of motion
what is the net force of 8(n) + 10(n)
18(n)
when equal forces are applied in opposite directions...
the net force is 0
