What is the term for the quantity of matter in an object?
Mass
Mass is measured in kilograms (kg).
What is the term for the force exerted by gravity on an object?
Gravitational field strength
Gravitational field strength is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg).
What is the formula for work done?
Work done = Force x Distance
Work is measured in joules (J).
What is the term for the push or pull on an object?
Force
Force is measured in newtons (N).
What is the term for the straight-line distance covered?
Distance
Distance is measured in meters (m).
What is the term that describes the stiffness of a spring?
Spring constant
Spring constant is measured in newtons per meter (N/m).
