Front

What does it mean when all forces on an object are balanced?

The object remains at rest or moves at a constant velocity.

Front

What is the role of gravity in the motion of a swing?

Back

Gravity pulls the swing downwards, causing it to return to its lowest point.

Front

How does friction affect the motion of a swinging object?

Back

Friction opposes the motion, causing the swing to eventually come to a stop.

Front

What is the relationship between force and motion in Newton's first law?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What is the definition of balanced forces?

Back

Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.
