Front

What is a free body diagram?

Back

A graphical representation used to visualize the forces acting on an object.

Front

What does gravitational force (weight) refer to?

Back

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

Front

What is the difference between applied force and gravitational force?

Back

Applied force is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object, while gravitational force is the force of attraction between two masses.

Front

What does it mean when an object is in equilibrium?

Back

An object is in equilibrium when the net force acting on it is zero, resulting in no change in motion.

Front

What is the significance of a negative velocity?

Back

A negative velocity indicates that an object is moving in the opposite direction to the defined positive direction.

Front

What is the formula for calculating net force?

Back

Net force is calculated by summing all the forces acting on an object (F_net = F1 + F2 + ... + Fn).

Front

What is inertia?

Back

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

Front

What is the role of normal force?

Back

Normal force is the support force exerted upon an object that is in contact with a surface, acting perpendicular to the surface.

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass.

Front

What does it mean for an object to accelerate?

Back

Acceleration refers to the rate of change of velocity of an object over time.
