FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?
Back
Newton's Second Law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. It can be expressed with the formula F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate force?
Back
Force can be calculated using the formula F = ma, where F is the force in Newtons, m is the mass in kilograms, and a is the acceleration in meters per second squared.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the coefficient of static friction?
Back
The coefficient of static friction (μs) is a dimensionless value that represents the ratio of the maximum static frictional force (Fs) between two surfaces to the normal force (N) pressing them together. It is calculated as μs = Fs / N.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's Second Law?
Back
In Newton's Second Law, mass and acceleration are inversely related. As mass increases, for a given force, the acceleration decreases.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does it mean for forces to be balanced?
Back
Balanced forces occur when two or more forces acting on an object are equal in size but opposite in direction, resulting in no change in the object's motion.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for calculating acceleration?
Back
Acceleration (a) can be calculated using the formula a = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is kinetic friction?
Back
Kinetic friction is the frictional force that opposes the motion of two surfaces sliding past each other. It is usually less than static friction.
