Vocab Quiz #1 Introduction to Physics

When two objects interact, the first one pushes on the second the same as the second pushes on the first but in the opposite direction.

• Newtons First Law

• Newton's Second Law

• Newton's Third Law

• Newton's Universal Law of

Rate of change of velocity measured in m/s/s

• Speed

• Velocity

• Acceleration

• Force

The change in motion of an object is proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its inertia.

• Newton's First Law

• Newton's Second Law

• Newton's Third Law

• Newton's Universal Law

A set of interacting objects (needed to adequately describe a situation or event)

• Mass

• Inertia

• Compound

• System

Object's keep on doing what they are doing.....unless acted upon by an unbalanced force

• Newton's First Law

• Newton's Second Law

• Newton's Third Law

• Newton's Universal Law

This occurs when objects' apply fundamental forces on each other

• They always speed up

• They always slow down

• They Interact

• They get crushed

Average rate of moving over distance measure in mi/hr or m/s

• Speed

• Acceleration

• Displacement

• Motion

An educated guess. What you can infer or conjecture.

• Estimate

• Rule

• Hypothesis

• Theory

The amount of matter in an object. Also a measure of an object's inertia.

• Volume

• Weight

• Mass

• Largeness

An object's resistance to a change in motion. Also a property of matter.

• Speed

• Inertia

• Friction

• Acceleration
