Amplify Force and Motion Review

Front

What is force?

Back

A push or pull that can cause motion.

Front

What happens to an object when a force is applied?

Back

It can change its motion, including speed and direction.

Front

What is velocity?

Back

The speed of an object in a specific direction.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is how fast an object is moving, while velocity includes direction.

Front

What is motion?

Back

The change in position of an object over time.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

The rate at which an object changes its velocity.

Front

What is the relationship between force and acceleration?

Back

According to Newton's second law, force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma).

Front

What is a collision?

Back

An event where two or more objects exert forces on each other.

Front

What is the law of conservation of momentum?

Back

In a closed system, the total momentum before a collision equals the total momentum after.
