|
Motion |
A change of position. |
|
|
Force |
Any push or pull on an object. |
|
|
Acceleration |
A measure of the change in velocity of a moving object. The rate at which velocity changes over time. |
|
|
Momentum |
The property that makes a moving object harder to stop. |
|
|
Friction |
A force that resists or slows down an object that is in motion. |
|
|
Velocity |
Speed in a certain direction. |
|
|
Speed |
The measurement of how fast or slow something moves. The distance traveled over time. |
|
|
Newton's 1st Law |
An object in rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force. |
|
|
Newton's 2nd Law |
The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied. |
|
|
Newton's 3rd Law |
For every action there is a equal and opposite reaction. |
|
|
Mass & Acceleration |
As mass increases, acceleration decreases. |
|
|
Mass & Momentum |
As mass increases, momentum increases as well. |
|
|
Friction & Speed/Distance |
As friction increases, speed and distance both decrease. |
|
|
Air Resistance |
The force of air pushing up on the surface of a falling object. |
