force and motion

Force

• causes objects to move, and sometimes forces slow, stop, or change the direction of an object's motion

• Objects with a greater mass have more inertia.

  It takes more force to change their motion

• resistance of motion when one object moves against another

• the line or course along which something moves, lies, or points

Motion

• the length between two points (or objects).

• a force that tends to move the object toward the person

• the process of an object moving or being moved.

• a force that causes an object to move away

Inertia

• causes objects to move, and sometimes forces slow, stop, or change the direction of an object's motion

• the process of an object moving or being moved.

• an invisible force that pulls objects toward each other

• An object will not change its motion unless touched by another force.

Friction

• the length between two points (or objects).

• the resistance of motion when one object moves against another

• the process of an object moving or being moved.

• a force that tends to move the object toward the person

Gravity

• Objects with a greater mass have more inertia.

  It takes more force to change their motion

• balanced

• unbalanced

• an invisible force that pulls objects towards earth

Direction

• the line or course along which something moves, lies, or points

• the length between two points (or objects).

Distance

• the line or course along which something moves, lies, or points
