A
motion of object.
Newton’s three laws.
2
Q
effect of balanced forces on a body? (1)
A
body will remain at the same position as acceleration=0 , Fnet = 0.
3
Q
effect of unbalanced forces on a body? (1)
A
body will accelerate in the direction of the Fnet.
4
Q
ways where a force may change the motion of a body? (4)
A
- Body at rest will move.
- Moving body increases/ decreases in speed.
- moving body changes direction.
5
Q
what is friction?(1) and the effects of friction on the motion of a body? (2 ea)
A
contact force that opposes motion between surfaces in contact.
Positive effects:
- Walk without slipping
- Moving objects able to slow down when needed
Negative:
- Result in wear and tear
- Cars are less efficient
