forces Flashcards
a push or a pull
force
an moving object keeps at that velocity
newtons first law
the tendency of an object to resist any change in motion
inertia
combination of all forces
net force
gravity
force ehserted force on every other object
mass
the amount of matter
weight
measure force of gravity
newtons second law
Force=massXaceleration
friction
opposite motion between two objects
static frictoin
resists moving but eventually moves
kinetic frction
Resists keeping a object moving while its moving
newtons 3 law
To every action there is an equal and opposite action
momentum
