Forces

Question 1

Force

Answer 1

Push. pull or twist motion making something happen

Can change shape, speed and direction

Question 2

Balanced Force

Answer 2

2 Equal forces acting in opposite directions cancelling out the motion

Question 3

Friction

Answer 3

The dragging force when 2 objects slide past each other

Question 4

Tension

Answer 4

force from object being stretched

Question 5

Drag

Answer 5

Force acting in opposite direction to objects motion

Question 6

Weight

Answer 6

gravitational force exerted on an object due to its mass

Question 7

Net force (resultant force)

Answer 7

Forces acting on objects added together

Same direction force added, Opposite direction force subtracted

Question 8

Inertia

Answer 8

The tendency to resist change in motion

larger an object’s mass, higher the Inertia

Question 9

What happens when there’s no Netforce

Answer 9

Object is either moving at constant velocity in same direction or is stationery
