newtons law Flashcards
force
a push or a pull exerted on an abject in order to change the motion of the object.
motion
a change in positions over time
net force
the combination of all the forces acting on an object
speed
distance traveled per the rate of time
speed=disance divided time
velocity
the speed and direction of an object
acceleration
The rate at which velocity changes over time
newtons first law
an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force.
newtons second law
force=mass x acceleration
newtons third law
for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction
inertia
the tendency of an object to resist being moved or, if the object is moving, to resist a change in speed or direction until an outside force acts on the object.
friction
a force that resist motion
mass
the amount of matter on an object
gravity
an attactivbe force that exists between all objects that have mass.
