Week 15 Flashcard 6th

Front

Because of inertia, a resting object will remain at ________.

Back

rest

Front

What does the first part of Newton’s first law say about objects in motion?

Back

Objects will move at the same speed and direction unless force changes their motion.

Front

I can calculate a speed using only the time it takes me to move. True or False?

Back

False

Front

Velocity = _______________

Back

Speed + direction

Front

Speed in a specific direction is.......

Back

D. velocity

Front

What is inertia?

Back

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What is Newton's first law of motion?

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 difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, while velocity includes both speed and direction.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object.

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time
