the phrase “to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction” is
Newton's Third Law
the largest velocity reached by a falling object is its
terminal velocity
when a car travels around a curve in the road,__ helps keep the car traveling in a curved path
centripetal force
the force exerted by air on a moving object is called
air resistance
a net force actiong on an object causes the object to accelerate in the direction of force; this is
Newton's Second Law
A property of a moving object resulting from its mass and velocity is
momentum.
According to the__ when a bowling ball strikes the pins the momentum lost by the bowling ball is equal to the momentum gained by the pins
conservation of momentum
___Is the force that every object in the universe exerts on every other object
Gravity
An objects ___ is the measure of the mass and gravity on that object
weight
The amount of gravitational force between two objects depends on their masses and the ___between them
distance
Weight is measured in units called___ while Mass is measured in units called grams and kilograms
newtons
Two surfaces that are not moving past each other
static friction.
When you push an object that moves as a result the force opposing this motion is
sliding friction
Why would a flat sheet of paper and a wad paper with the same mass not fall through the air at the same rate
The flat sheet experiences more air resistance due to its larger surface area, causing it to fall slower than the wad of paper.
Explain why the same object would have a different weight on Earth than it would on Mars
The weight is the force of gravity acting on the object's Mass
What are the three types of friction and how are they different
static prevents motion of two objects moving
sliding resists the relative motion of two surfaces moving towards each other
rolling opposes the motion of a rolling object on a Surface like a wheel
