Force

A push or a pull

6

Units for force

Newtons

7

Newton's First Law

An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

8

Newton's Second Law

Force = mass x acceleration

9

Newton's 3rd Law

For every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force

10

formula for power

P=W/t

11

units for speed

m/s

12

units for acceleration

m/s squared

13

Units for velocity

m/s and direction

14

Inertia

The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion
