NGSS.MS-PS2-2

Which term refers to the combination of all forces acting on an object?

• speed

• motion

• direction

• net force

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS2-2

An object with zero net force will ___________________________.

• change its direction

• increase its speed

• stay at rest

• increase its friction

7. Unless acted on by a force, objects in motion tend to stay in .

• rest

• motion
• force

• friction

With objects of the same mass, the greater the force, the greater the change in .

• motion
• mass

• friction

• force

NGSS.MS-PS2-2

Which term refers to the force that opposes the motion of an object?

• speed

• net force

• friction

• motion

More friction will make an object:

• speed up

• slow down

• stay in motion

• increase its kinetic energy
