the tendency of a moving object to keep moving or of any object to resist a change in motion

(hint: if it is moving, it is going to keep moving unless something stops it)

• gravity

• force

• inertia

• speed

a force that opposes the motion of one object moving past another

• gravity

• friction

• motion

• force

The distance an object travels in a given amount of time

• force

• speed

• friction

• distance

When objects physically come into contact with each other, such as friction or a collision

• contact force

• noncontact force

• motion

• slow down

Change in the position of an object over time.

• motion

• force

• gravity

What two measurements do you need to find speed?

• time

• mass

• distance

• speed

• friction

If a force is applied in the same direction of an object's motion, the speed will ______________________.

• increase

• decrease

• stay the same
