What type of friction do objects balanced on a person's head experience?

Back

Static Friction

Front

What is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion called?

Back

Inertia

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = Mass x Acceleration (F = ma)

Front

What is the relationship between mass and inertia?

Back

Inertia is directly proportional to mass; greater mass means greater inertia.

Front

What are the three main types of friction?

Back

Static Friction, Kinetic Friction, and Rolling Friction.

Front

How does fluid friction differ from static and kinetic friction?

Back

Fluid friction occurs when an object moves through a fluid, while static friction prevents motion and kinetic friction acts during motion.

Front

What is the effect of friction on motion?

Back

Friction opposes motion and can cause objects to slow down or stop.
