Kevin's Cards about Force and Motion

Question 1

Balanced Forces Definition

Answer 1

Are equal forces acting on one object in opposite directions. Will not change an objects motion.

Question 2

Unbalanced Forces Definition

Answer 2

It causes the object to increase speed (speed up ), decrease speed (slow down ), or change its direction.

Question 3

Speed definition

Answer 3

How far an object can travel in a certain amount of time

Question 4

Speed Formula

Answer 4

Speed = Distance divided by time or s = d/t

Question 5

Average speed Formula

Answer 5

Average speed = total distance divided by total time or Avgs = td/tt

Question 6

Net Force Definition

Answer 6

The overall ( or combined ) forces acting on an object

Question 7

When Forces act in different directions what do you do to solve for the net force

Answer 7

You subtract the measurements

Question 8

When Forces act in the same direction what do you do to solve for the net force

Answer 8

You add the measurements

Question 9

What do Inclined planes do

Answer 9

Inclined Planes decreases the amount of force needed to move an object by increasing the distance the object moves.
