Back

The change in position of an object over time.

Front

What is gravity?

Back

A force that pulls objects toward each other, such as the Earth pulling objects toward its center.

A force that opposes the motion of an object when it comes into contact with another surface.

Front

What is magnetism?

Back

A force that attracts or repels certain materials, such as iron, due to magnetic fields.

Front

What happens when you apply more force to an object?

Back

The object will accelerate more, meaning it will move faster.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and force?

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the more force is needed to move it.

Front

What is the effect of surface type on motion?

Back

Different surfaces create different amounts of friction, affecting how easily an object can move.

Front

What is the purpose of repeating an experiment?

Back

To check that the results are accurate and reliable.

Front

How does gravity affect objects on Earth?

Back

Gravity pulls objects toward the ground, giving them weight.
