Forces and Motion

A group of reference objects whose placement can be compared to each other to determine motion

• Speed

• Net force

• Frame of reference

• Balanced forces

The direction and distance from the starting point to the ending point

• Frame of reference

• Displacemnet

• Line graph

• Net force

A measure of how long it takes an object to get from one place to another

• Force

• Inerita

• Gravity

• Speed

Graph used to show changes in motion over time

• Bar graph

• Pie chart

• Line graph

• Scattergram

Line graph used to show the speed of a moving object

• Line graph

• Bar graph

• Pie chart

• Distance-Time graph

A push or pull that changes the speed of a moving object

• Net force

• Interia

• Force

• Mass

The overall force acting on an object after all the forces have been added or subtracted

• Force

• Net Force

• Balanced forces

• Mass

Occurs when the net force is zero and there is no change in the object's motion

• Mass

• Net force

• Balanced forces

• Static friction

Friction force that acts to prevent objects that are touching from sliding past one another

• Static friction

• Sliding friction

• Rolling friciton

• Fluid friction

A force that opposes the motion of objects as they slide past one another

• Static friction

• Sliding friction

• Rolling friciton

• Fluid friction
