Forces

Front

What are the two factors that affect the magnitude of the force of gravity between two objects?

Back

Mass and distance.

Front

Define force in the context of physics.

Back

A push or pull.

Front

What is the standard unit of force?

Back

Newton (N).

Front

What is the outcome or dependent variable in an experiment involving forces?

Back

The height of the plants.

Front

What is net force?

Back

The total force acting on an object, taking into account all individual forces.

Front

How does mass affect gravitational force?

Back

Greater mass results in a stronger gravitational force.

Front

How does distance affect gravitational force?

Back

Greater distance results in a weaker gravitational force.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = mass × acceleration (F = ma).

Front

What is the difference between balanced and unbalanced forces?

Back

Balanced forces do not change an object's motion, while unbalanced forces cause acceleration.

Front

What is the relationship between force and acceleration?

Back

Force is directly proportional to acceleration; as force increases, acceleration increases.
