SC.6.P.13.3 Unbalance Forces

Front

What is the definition of net force?

Back

Net force is the overall force acting on an object when all the individual forces are combined.

Front

What is the net force of an object that is not moving?

Back

0 N

Front

What is the unit of measurement for force?

Back

Newton (N)

Front

What is the relationship between distance and displacement?

Back

Distance is the total path length traveled, while displacement is the shortest straight line from the initial to the final position.

Front

What does it mean if an object is in equilibrium?

Back

An object is in equilibrium if the net force acting on it is zero.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = mass × acceleration (F = m × a)

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving, while velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What does a distance-time graph represent?

Back

A distance-time graph shows how distance changes over time, indicating the speed of an object.

Front

What is the significance of a flat line on a distance-time graph?

Back

A flat line indicates that the object is at rest and not changing its position.
