ICP Chapter 2 Review

A push or a pull exerted on an object is:

• force

• inertia

• mass

• balanced forces

The tendency of an object to resist change in its motion

• inertia

• velocity

• acceleration

• balanced forces

The amount of matter in an object

• mass

• balanced forces

• distance

• instantaneous speed

The net force acting on an object is zero

• mass

• balanced forces

• velocity

• instantaneous speed

The speed of an object and the direction of its motion

• velocity

• net force

• acceleration

• instantaneous speed

The sum of all the forces acting on an object

• net force

• velocity

• balanced forces

• acceleration

The rate of change of the velocity of an object

• acceleration

• distance

• velocity

• instantaneous speed

A measure of how far an object has moved

• distance

• instantaneous speed

• velocity

• mass

The rate of change in position at a given point in time

• instantaneous speed

• velocity

• distance

• acceleration

The distance and direction an object moves from its starting point

• displacement

• average speed

• unbalanced forces

• constant speed
