13 Terms

1

Velocity

The speed of an object in a specified direction.

New cards
2

Acceleration

The rate at which an object changes its velocity.

New cards
3

Displacement

The distance and direction of an object's change in position from the starting point.

New cards
4

Momentum

The quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity.

New cards
5

Impulse

The change in momentum resulting from a force applied over a period of time.

New cards
6

Static Friction

The force that keeps an object at rest and prevents it from moving.

New cards
7

Kinetic Friction

The force that opposes the movement of two surfaces that are in contact and moving relative to each other.

New cards
8

Terminal Velocity

The constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium prevents further acceleration.

New cards
9

Vector Quantity

A physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction.

New cards
10

Scalar Quantity

A physical quantity that has magnitude but no direction.

New cards
11

Net Force

The overall force acting on an object when all the individual forces acting on it are combined.

New cards
12

Balanced Forces

Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

New cards
13

Unbalanced Forces

Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object, resulting in acceleration.
