balanced forces are multiples of 5 N, while unbalanced forces are not.

balanced forces have a net force unequal to 0 N, while unbalanced forces are equal to 0 N.

balanced forces have multiple forces that are equal to the same number, while unbalanced forces do not.

When do forces always occur?

when one object is larger than another

when two objects are of the same size

Average velocity is calculated by dividing the __________ by the time needed to travel __________.

distance traveled; that distance

changes depending on the location of the object.

is the result of unbalanced forces acting on the object.

depends on the balanced forces acting on the object.

A reference frame is a

point of view on the speed and direction that objects are moving relative to a reference point.

tool used to describe the relative velocity of a reference point.

term used to describe a reference point that is not in motion.

tool used to measure speed and velocity of an object in motion.

What is most likely to happen to a moving object with a net force of 0 N?

It will continue to move with the same velocity.

It will come to a complete stop.

Different strengths of forces can be modeled using

scales that measure different forces.

a table of different numerical values.

a graph of different numerical values.

What is most likely to happen to a moving object with a net force of 0 N if an unbalanced force acts on it?

It will come to a complete stop.

It will continue to move with the same velocity.

You are playing catch with a friend when they pass you the ball. From your reference frame

the ball moves toward you and away from your friend.

your friend moves away from the ball.

your friend moves away from the ball as you move toward it.
