5.6D Force and Motion Test

Front

What is force?

Back

Force is a push or pull on an object that can cause it to move, stop, or change direction.

Front

What is motion?

Back

Motion is the change in position of an object over time.

Front

What is mass?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, usually measured in grams or kilograms.

Front

What is friction?

Back

Friction is the force that opposes the motion of an object when it is in contact with another surface.

Front

What is a fair test in an experiment?

Back

A fair test is an experiment where only one variable is changed at a time to ensure that the results are valid.

Front

How does mass affect force?

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the more force is needed to move it.

Front

What is a spring scale?

Back

A spring scale is a tool used to measure force by the amount of stretch in a spring.

Front

What is the relationship between height and force?

Back

As the height from which an object is dropped increases, the force of impact also increases.

Front

What is the purpose of conducting multiple trials in an experiment?

Back

Conducting multiple trials helps to ensure that the results are reliable and not due to random chance.

Front

What is the effect of surface type on rolling objects?

Back

Different surface types can affect the speed and distance that a rolling object travels due to varying levels of friction.
