Amplify- Force and Motion Chapter 1 & 2

Front

What happens when two objects collide?

Back

Both objects experience the same amount of force, but how they respond depends on their mass.

Front

How does the direction of force affect an object's velocity?

Back

The change in an object's velocity depends on the direction of the force exerted on it.

Front

What occurs when a strong force is applied to an object in the same direction of its motion?

Back

The object's motion will speed up.

Front

What is one way an object's motion can change?

Back

An object's motion can change by speeding up.

Front

What is speed in a particular direction called?

Back

Velocity.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and force during a collision?

Back

The response of each object after a collision depends on its mass.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = Mass x Acceleration.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is a scalar quantity (magnitude only), while velocity is a vector quantity (magnitude and direction).
