Forces and Motion Modified

Front

What is the unit for acceleration?

Back

m/s²

Front

How do you calculate Net Force?

Back

Net Force = mass × acceleration

Front

If a 2kg bird is pushed by the wind with a force of 2N, how fast does the bird accelerate?

Back

1 m/s²

Front

What is the acceleration of a car that travels in a straight line at a constant speed?

Back

0

Front

If an object is stationary (not moving), the forces acting upon it are _____________.

Back

balanced

Front

What is the formula for calculating acceleration?

Back

Acceleration = (Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) / Time

Front

What does it mean for forces to be balanced?

Back

Balanced forces result in no change in motion.

Front

What is the effect of unbalanced forces on an object?

Back

Unbalanced forces cause an object to accelerate.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

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

Front

What is Newton's First Law of Motion?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.
