Forces Flashcards
What is resistant force?
The difference in Newtons between 2 sources that are opposing each other
Rf stands for?
Resistant force
If forces are balanced. then…
The the object does not move, or the object is moving at a constant speed
If forces are unbalanced?
The object will start to move or change speed
Whats one thing that forces can do?
Forces act on everything around us
They can change the shape of things
Forces are measured in Newtons
Upthrust keeps boats floating on water
Friction always..?
Tries to slow things down, it opposes motion
What does equilibrium mean?
A state in which opposing forces or influences are balanced
Name all the equations possible on a DST triangle..?
Distance \ speed = time
Speed x time = distance
Distance \ time = speed
Name examples of contact forces..?
Upthrust
Air resistance
Water resistance
Name examples of non-contact forces..?
Gravity
Static electricity
Magnetic
