Force, Mass, Acceleration (Flashcardizz)

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

What is the formula for Newton's second law of motion?

Back

F = M x A, where F is force, M is mass, and A is acceleration.

Front

What is the unit of force?

Back

The unit of force is the Newton (N).

Front

What is the unit for mass?

Back

The unit for mass is kilograms (kg).

Front

If two forces are acting in the same direction, what do you do with them?

Back

You add the forces together.

Front

What is net force?

Back

Net force is the total force acting on an object after all the forces are combined.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration?

Back

According to Newton's second law, acceleration is inversely proportional to mass when force is constant.

Front

What does it mean if an object has a net force of zero?

Back

If the net force is zero, the object is either at rest or moving at a constant velocity.

Front

What is the formula to calculate acceleration?

Back

Acceleration (A) can be calculated using the formula A = F/M, where F is force and M is mass.

Front

What happens to acceleration if mass increases while force remains constant?

Back

If mass increases, acceleration decreases.
