Front

Newton's 1st law

Back

An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force.

Front

Newton's 2nd law

Back

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.

Front

Newton's 3rd law

Back

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Front

Net force

Back

The overall force acting on an object when all the individual forces acting on it are combined.

Front

Balanced force

Back

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

Front

Unbalanced force

Back

Forces that are not equal and opposite, causing a change in the object's motion.

Front

Potential energy

Back

The energy stored in an object due to its position or state.

Front

Kinetic energy

Back

The energy of an object due to its motion.

Front

Energy Transformation

Back

The process of changing energy from one form to another.

Front

Radiant Energy

Back

Energy that travels by waves or particles, particularly electromagnetic radiation such as heat or x-rays.
