|
unbalanced force
|
|
force that resists motion between two touching surfaces.
|
friction
|
|
pull that all objects with mass exert on other matter.
|
gravity
|
|
measures an object's tendency to resist changing its motion and depends on the amount of mass an object has.
|
inertia
|
|
measures the direction and distance between the end position and starting position.
|
displacement
|
|
the direction and distance between the final position and the starting position
|
displacement
|
|
speed in a particular direction; can change as an object moves along
|
velocity
|
|
a change in velocity divided by the amount of time over which the change occurs.
|
acceleration
|
|
an object will remain at rest or will keep moving in a straight line with constant speed unless an outside force acts on it.
|
first law of motion
|
|
a net force acting on an object causes the object to accelerate in the direction of the force.
|
second law of motion
|
|
when a force is applied on an object, an equal force is applied by the object in the opposite direction.
|
third law of motion
