Amplify Force and Motion Unit Review

Front

What is force?

Back

Force is a push or pull on an object that can cause it to change its velocity (speed or direction).

Front

What is mass?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms or grams.

Front

How does mass affect force?

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the more force is required to change its motion.

Front

What is motion?

Back

Motion is the change in position of an object over time.

Front

What is velocity?

Back

Velocity is the speed of an object in a specific direction.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate at which an object changes its velocity.

Front

What is the relationship between force and acceleration?

Back

According to Newton's second law, force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma).

Front

What happens to an object when a greater force is applied?

Back

When a greater force is applied to an object, it will accelerate more than if a smaller force were applied.

Front

What is the principle of conservation of momentum?

Back

The total momentum of a closed system remains constant if no external forces act on it.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

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