Physics Test 1

Question 1

Speed

Answer 1

distance over time

Question 2

Volocity

Answer 2

Displacement over time

Question 3

Momentum

Answer 3

Velocity x Mass

Question 4

Force

Answer 4

Definition: Cause of acceleration
Equation: Mass x Acceleration
Force = Push or pull

Question 5

Acceleration

Answer 5

Change in Velocity over change in Time.
1. Increasing speed
2. Decreasing speed
3. Change directions

Question 6

Gravity

Answer 6

Earth’s pull on an object

Question 7

Mass

Answer 7

How much matter something has. (On earth)

Question 8

Inertia

Answer 8

Same as Conservation of momentum and also known as newtons 1st law.

Question 9

Conservation of Momentum

Answer 9

Objects in motion want to stay in motion, moving in a straight line unless acted upon by an outside force.

Question 10

Conservation of

Answer 10

Not gained or lost but can change.

Question 11

Newton’s 1st law

Answer 11

An object in motion wants to stay in motion. (Same as inertia and Conservation of Momentum.)

Question 12

Newton’s 2nd law

Answer 12

Same as Force
Force = Mass x Acceleration

Question 13

Newton’s 3rd law

Answer 13

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
