Newtons.
What are the units in which force is measured?
|
Objects at rest remain at rest, and objects in motion remain in motion (at constant velocity) unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
State Newtons First Law of Motion.
|
Vector
Force is a ________ so you must always include a direction.
|
Overall force on an object when all forces acting on it are combined.
What is Net Force?
|
The objects mass and distance between the objects.
The force of gravity between two objects depends on...
|
F=m*a
What is the formula for force?
|
Newtons Second Law
Which law describes motion produced by unbalanced forces.
|
Because the large semi truck has more inertia than the smaller mini cooper. It has more resistance to change.
Explain why it takes a large semi truck more time to take off from a stoplight than it does a mini cooper.

40 Newtons East (or any direction)
Two girls are pushing a large box down a hallway. One girl is pressing on the box with a force of 15 Newtons and the other with a force of 25 Newtons. What is the net force being placed on the box?
|
A change in velocity.
Define Acceleration.
|
The force exerted between electrically charged moving particles, creating a field.
Magnetic Force is...
|
Inertia
Describes the resistance of an object to change.

If the clothes line sank with a force of 2 Newtons than when the bird flies away the line will come back up in the opposite direction with a force of 2 Newtons. Newtons Third Law.
Small birds are sitting on a clothes line when a rather large bird comes and lands on the line; causing it to sink with a force of 2 Newtons. Describe what will happen if the large bird flies away.
|
The box will not move; balanced.
If a large box has a force of 28 Newtons being exerted upon it on either side what can we assume about the movement of the box? Is this illustrating balanced or unbalanced forces?
|
Rolling Friction
Friction involving a moving sphere is called.
|
A force that resists motion between two surfaces that are pressed together.
What is friction?
|
30 Newtons
What force is being applied to a 15kg box that is accelerating at 2.0 m/sec/sec?
|
Use Newton's First law and knowledge of inertia to defend answer.
Why are seatbelts useful? Provide an explanation.
|
50 Newtons, The wall does not move therefore the forces are balanced.
If a man presses on a wall with a force of 50 Newtons. What force is the wall exerting on the man? How do you know?
|
Fluid Friction
What type of friction was illustrated by the parachute in the force and action lab? Explain how you know.
|
Force is a push or a pull that causes an object to move, stop moving or change direction.
Define force.
|
For every action their is an equal and opposite reaction.
State Newton's Third Law of Motion.
|
Since the Earth has a larger gravitation pull than the moon there is a larger force of attraction pulling us down; this explain why we weigh more on Earth than on the moon. Mass is a measure of matter contained within a body and weight is mass plus the pu
Explain why your weight is different on Earth than it is on the moon; and why your mass would be the same in both locations.
|
The total force on the box is 10N. The direction the box will move is to the left. Ms. Thomasson placed a larger force on the box.
If Ms. Thomasson is pushing on a box with a force of 15N to the left and Ms. Clayton is pushing on the opposite side of the box with a force of 5N to the right what is the total amount of force being put on the box? What direction will the box move?

gravity-caused the marble to roll down the ramp.
friction-marble rolled to a stop.
In the marble madness lab which forces acted upon the marble to slow it down? Speed it up?
