May the Force be with YOU (no laws)

Front

What is gravity?

Back

Gravity is a force that attracts two bodies towards each other, depending on their masses and the distance between them.

Front

How does mass affect gravity?

Back

The larger the mass of an object, the greater the gravitational force it exerts.

Front

What is an unbalanced force?

Back

An unbalanced force is a force that causes an object to change its motion, either by speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction.

Front

What is a balanced force?

Back

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

Front

What is weight?

Back

Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object, calculated as mass times the acceleration due to gravity (W = m * g).

Front

If an object has a mass of 35 kg on Earth, what is its weight?

Back

Its weight on Earth is approximately 343 N (using g = 9.8 m/s²).

Front

What is the formula to calculate weight?

Back

Weight (W) = Mass (m) × Acceleration due to gravity (g).

Front

What happens to an object's motion when a net force is applied?

Back

The object will accelerate in the direction of the net force.

Front

What is the effect of surface area on friction?

Back

The surface area does not significantly affect the amount of force required to pull an object across a smooth surface.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, which can occur due to a change in speed or direction.
