Benchmark 7 Review - Category 2 Force, Motion, Energy

Front

What is force?

Back

A push or pull on an object that can cause it to move, stop, or change direction.

What is motion?

Back

The change in position of an object over time.

Front

What is energy?

Back

The distance an object travels per unit of time, calculated as distance divided by time.

Front

What is thermal equilibrium?

Back

When the temperature of two objects wants to be equal, balanced, the same.

Front

What is net force?

Back

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

Front

What does it mean if forces are balanced?

Back

The net force is zero, and the object will either remain at rest or move at a constant speed.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

The rate at which an object changes its velocity.

Front

How do you calculate speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

The energy an object has due to its motion.
