Unit 4-7 7th grade Physics Pre-comp Review

What happens when two forces act in the same direction?

• They cancel each other out.

• The stronger one prevails.

• Their strengths are added.

• Their sum divided by two is the total force.

The greater the mass of an object,

• the easier the object starts moving.

• the greater its inertia.

• the more balanced it is.

• the more space it takes up.

The law of universal gravitation states that any two objects in the uni-verse that have mass, without exception,

• attract each other.

• repel each other.

• combine to provide a balanced force.

• create friction

• unaffected by gravity

• balanced forces

• substantial

According to Newton’s third law of motion, when a hammer strikes and exerts force on a nail, the nail

• creates a friction with the hammer.

• disappears into the wood.

• exerts an equal and opposite force on the hammer.

• moves at a constant speed.

• net force

• centripetal force
