law of conservation of momentum or momentum

• mass in motion (p)

• force applied over time

• energy transferred during a collision

• velocity of an object

friction

• Resistance to motion when two objects are in contact with one another.

• The force that pulls objects toward the center of the Earth.

• The speed at which an object moves in a straight line.

• The energy required to change the temperature of an object.

Inertia

• The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion.

• The force that causes an object to move in a circular path.

• The speed of an object in a straight line.

• The mass of an object multiplied by its velocity.

net force

• The total force acting on an object when all individual forces are combined.

• The force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact.

• The force that causes an object to remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by another force.

• The combining of forces when two or more forces act on an object.

Air resistance

• Resistance an object feels when traveling through the air.

• The force that pushes an object forward in a vacuum.

• The frictional force that acts on an object moving through water.

• The gravitational pull experienced by an object in free fall.

law of (universal) gravitation

• When any two masses exert an attractive force on each other.

• When two bodies repel each other due to their masses.

• When the gravitational force is zero between two masses.

• When masses are in equilibrium and do not exert any force.

weight

• The force of gravity on an object.

• The mass of an object without gravity.

• The total amount of matter in an object.

• The resistance of an object to acceleration.

force

• A push or pull one object exerts on another. Measured in Newtons

• A type of energy that can be converted into work

• The mass of an object multiplied by its acceleration

• A measure of the distance an object travels in a given time
