Force and Motion Unit Review

Front

What is the amount of matter an object has?

Back

Mass

Front

What is the term for the tendency of an object at rest to stay at rest or in motion to stay in motion?

Back

Inertia

Front

What does a positive slope on a velocity-time graph indicate?

Back

Positive acceleration

Front

Which example best demonstrates kinetic energy?

Back

A kite flying across the sky

Front

What is the term for the speed of an object in a specific direction?

Back

Velocity

Front

What is the formula for calculating momentum?

Back

Momentum = Mass x Velocity

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is scalar (magnitude only), while velocity is vector (magnitude and direction).

Front

What happens to an object's motion when a net force is applied?

Back

The object accelerates in the direction of the net force.

Front

What is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI)?

Back

Newton (N)

Front

What is the relationship between mass and inertia?

Back

Greater mass means greater inertia, making it harder to change the object's motion.
