FORCES AND MOTION REVIEW TEST

Front

What is the best spot to judge the motion of a bus while riding in it?

Back

The window is the best spot to look to judge the motion of the bus.

Front

In which direction does gravity act when normal force is directed upwards?

Back

Gravity acts straight downward.

Front

What force opposes the motion of an object moving to the left?

Back

Friction is the force that opposes the motion.

Front

What is the property of an object that resists change in its state of motion?

Back

Inertia is the property that resists change and is proportional to the object's mass.

Front

What term describes the state of an object when the distance between it and another object is increasing?

Back

Motion describes the state when the distance is increasing.

Front

What is the definition of force?

Back

A force is a push or pull that can cause an object to accelerate.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and inertia?

Back

Inertia is directly proportional to mass; more mass means more inertia.

Front

What is net force?

Back

Net force is the total force acting on an object after all the forces are combined.

Front

What is the effect of friction on motion?

Back

Friction opposes motion and can slow down or stop moving objects.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = mass × acceleration (F = ma).
