Motion Graphs and forces

Front

What is motion?

Back

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

Front

What is a motion graph?

Back

A motion graph visually represents the position, velocity, or acceleration of an object over time.

Front

What does a flat line on a motion graph indicate?

Back

A flat line indicates that the object is stationary and not moving.

Front

What does a steep slope on a motion graph represent?

Back

A steep slope indicates a high speed of the object.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object.

Front

What is net force?

Back

Net force is the total force acting on an object, taking into account all individual forces.

Front

What is balanced force?

Back

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

Front

What is unbalanced force?

Back

Unbalanced forces cause an object to accelerate or change its motion.

Front

How do you calculate net force?

Back

Net force is calculated by adding all the forces acting on an object, considering their direction.

Front

What is the formula for speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.
