Front

What is the force that opposes motion between two surfaces?

Back

Friction

Front

What two factors are necessary to describe an object's motion?

Back

Direction and Speed

Front

What is produced as a result of friction?

Back

Heat

Front

What type of energy do all moving objects possess?

Back

Kinetic Energy

Front

At which point on a roller coaster does a car have the most potential energy?

Back

At the highest point (e.g., Point B).

Front

What is the definition of force in physics?

Back

A push or pull that can cause an object to accelerate.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration according to Newton's second law?

Back

Force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma).

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

The energy stored in an object due to its position or state.

Front

How does friction affect the motion of an object?

Back

It slows down or stops the object.

Front

What is the formula for calculating kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.
