New cards

unbalanced

force that changes the motion of an object; net force ≠0 (speeds up, slows, turns, stops, starts)

<p>force that changes the motion of an object; net force ≠0 (speeds up, slows, turns, stops, starts)</p>
2
New cards

balanced

force that does not change the motion of an object; net force =0 (constant speed, no change in direction)

<p>force that does not change the motion of an object; net force =0 (constant speed, no change in direction)</p>

1st Law

Newton's Law of Motion states objects will remain at rest, OR in constant motion, at a constant speed and in a straight line UNLESS acted on by an unbalanced force. Law of inertia.

4
New cards

speed

How fast or slow something is moving, such as 60 km/h , or 6 cm/s. Divide the distance traveled by the time traveled

5
New cards

velocity

Speed with direction (50 miles per hr North)

<p>Speed with direction (50 miles per hr North)</p>
6
New cards

inertia

resistance to a change in motion; resistance to a force; directly proportional to mass. This is why we wear seatbelts in a car.

gravity

force that pulls objects toward each other, is an unbalanced force if it causes a change in velocity.
