Energy & Motion

balanced force

• unequal forces acting on an object which causes it to move around

• equal forces acting on an object which causes it to stay in place

• equal forces acting on an object which causes it to move around

• unequal forces acting on an object which causes it to stay in place

friction

• a force that causes an object to stop

• a pushing force that speeds up moving things

•  a pushing force that occurs when objects touch which slows down moving things

• a force that keeps objects from touching

gravity

• a force that pushes objects away from the earth

• the building block of matter

• stored energy

• a force that pulls objects toward the earth

kinetic energy

• the energy an object has when it is in motion

• the energy an object has at rest

• energy that gives off heat

• energy that moves through waves of matter
