Forces, Laws of Motion, Momentum, Potential & Kinetic Energy

Push or Pull

• Force

• Motion

• Inertia

• Momentum

THIS occurs when there is a change in position of an object with respect to a reference point. The final position of an object is determined by measuring the change in position and direction of the segments along a trip.

• Momentum

• Inertia

• Motion

• Action-Reaction

Energy stored in an object due to its position.

• Potential Energy

• Kinetic Energy

• Chemical Energy

• Nuclear Energy

Energy associated with the motion of an object.

• Potential Energy

• Kinetic Energy

• Heat Energy

• Electrical Energy

If object A exerts a force on object B, object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A. In other words, forces result from interactions.

• Inertia

• Acceleration

• Action-Reaction

• Laws of Motion

The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied.

• First Law of Motion

• Second Law of Motion

• Third Law of Motion

• Laws of Motion

An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force.

• Inertia

• Acceleration

• Interaction

• Momentum

THIS is a measurement of mass in motion. Any object that is moving has THIS. In physics, THIS of an object is equal to the mass times the velocity.

• Inertia

• Acceleration

• Interaction
