Front

What is the normal force?

Back

The normal force is the force exerted by a surface to support the weight of an object resting on it, acting perpendicular to the surface.

Front

What is the unit of distance in kinematics?

Back

The standard unit of distance in kinematics is meters (m).

Front

What is a non-contact force?

Back

A non-contact force is a force that acts on an object without physical contact, such as gravitational force.

Front

What is the resultant force?

Back

The resultant force is the vector sum of all individual forces acting on an object, determining its overall motion.

Front

How do you choose the correct kinematic equation?

Back

Choose an equation that includes all your given variables and does not include your unknown.

Front

What is gravitational force?

Back

Gravitational force is the attractive force between two masses, proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.

Front

What is tension?

Back

Tension is the force transmitted through a string, rope, or cable when it is pulled tight by forces acting from opposite ends.

Front

What is friction?

Back

Friction is the force that opposes the relative motion of two surfaces in contact.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time.

Front

What is velocity?

Back

Velocity is the speed of an object in a specific direction.
