TOPIC 4: OBEY THE LAW!

Force

A push or pull that influences the velocity of an object, measured in Newtons (N).

Mass

A measurement of the amount of matter in an object, measured in kilograms (kg).

Acceleration

A change in velocity, measured in m/s². It is the rate at which the change occurs.

Newton's 2nd Law

The equation F=ma summarizes the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration.

Speed

The distance traveled by an object in a unit of time.

Time

The duration it takes for an object to travel a certain distance.

Distance

The length between two points.

Net Force

The sum of all forces acting on an object.

Velocity

The speed of an object in a specific direction.

Constant Acceleration

When acceleration remains the same, the change in velocity is directly proportional to time.
