1
New cards

volume/density of an object

Mass

2
New cards

all force from all directions is equal

Unbalanced Force

3
New cards

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

Law of Interaction

4
New cards

how fast the object is in related to direction

Velocity

5
New cards

gravity related - push/pull force

Force

6
New cards

the rate of change of velocity with time

Acceleration

7
New cards

A body at rest will remain at rest and a body in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by a net force

Law of Inertia

8
New cards

is inversely proportional to the mass of the body

Law of Acceleration

9
New cards

The external or outside force

Net Force

10
New cards

_ = ma

Force

11
New cards

composition inside of an object/relation to gravity

Weight

12
New cards

_ = F over m

Acceleration

13
New cards

_ = F over a

Mass

14
New cards

If you increase the force on an item without changing the mass, you increase _

Acceleration

15
New cards

In Newton's Law of Motion, force can make an object change direction

Second

16
New cards

_ can cause Acceleration

Forces

17
New cards

If you increase the _ on an item without increasing the force, you can't increase the acceleration

Mass

18
New cards

It is much easier to carry your backpack when it is empty rather when it's full of textbooks.

Law of Acceleration

19
New cards

When you are standing in a subway train and the train suddenly stops but your body continues to move forward

Law of Inertia

20
New cards

When you give your friend a lift on your bike you have to pedal harder and faster to keep the same speed as you had when you were on your bike alone

Law of Acceleration

21
New cards

Two bumper cars collide into each other and each car jolts backwards

Law of Interaction

22
New cards

A boy is going down the slide. As he reaches the bottom, friction causes him to slow down and stop

Law of Inertia

23
New cards

the rate at which work is done

Power

24
New cards

capacity to do work

Energy

25
New cards

it is the measure of the energy transfer

Work

26
New cards

energy at rest

Potential Energy

27
New cards

transfer of energy from moving object

Kinetic Energy

28
New cards

__ = fd (force) (distance)

Work

29
New cards

-- = W over t

Power

30
New cards

-- = mgh

PE (Potential Energy)

31
New cards

-- = 1/2 mv squared
