What are Balanced Forces?

Back

Forces that are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

Front

What are Unbalanced Forces?

Back

Forces that are not equal and can cause an object to accelerate or change direction.

Front

What is Friction?

Back

A force that opposes the motion of an object, caused by the contact between two surfaces.

Front

What is the effect of a net force on an object?

Back

It determines the object's acceleration and direction of motion.

Front

What is Speed?

Back

The distance an object travels per unit of time.

What is Constant Speed?

Back

When an object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time.

Front

What is Acceleration?

Back

The rate at which an object changes its velocity.

What is a Newton?

Back

The unit of force in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to the force required to accelerate 1 kg of mass at 1 m/s².
