MATCHING Match the description on the left with the correct term on the right. Speed in a given direction Velocity Speed that does not change Constant Speed Change in speed or velocity Acceleration Distance over time Speed An unbalanced force is when one force is greater than the other force resulting in a change in motion.Combined forces acting on a object is net force.A push or pull on an object is a force.A balanced force is a force that is equal in strength but opposite in direction resulting in no motion. Words placed forward, down, and diagonally. To mark a word click its first letter then click its last. ACCELERATION VELOCITY DISTANCE INERTIA NEWTON SPEED Answer the question and show your work! The athlete ran 1600 meters in 10 minutes. What was the avarage speed of the athlete? Show your work! The truck traveled north 750 miles over a period of 10 hours. What was the velocity of the truck that day? What is the net force for these two objects? What is the net force of these two objects? Identify which Law of Motion each statement represents. Newton's 1st Law An object in motion will stay in motion unless an unbalanced force acts on it. A wind-up toy sits idle on a desk Wearing a seat belt in a car helps to prevent a person from flying threw the windshield in a collision Newton's 3rd Law For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. You pull back on a toy car to make it go forward. A swimmer pushes on the wall with her feet, which causes the wall to push back on her feet Newton's 2nd Law It is much easier to carry your backpack when you do not have to carry several textbooks. An 8 pound bowling ball knocks down less bowling pins than a 16 pound bowling ball traveling at the same speed. Force= mass x acceleration LABEL fill in the blanks with the best fitting term!!****(side note: decelerating- slowing down- is still a form of acceleration)**** accelerating constant speed decelerating at rest accelerating Fill in the blanks Potential Energy is energy due to the object's positionKinetic Energy is energy due to the motion of the object.An example for Potential Energy is being at the top of a roller coaster, right before the hug drop!An example of Kinetic Energy is being at the bottom of the huge drop of the roller coaster!Potential energy- the higher an object is, the more potential energy it has!Kinetic energy- the lowest point, the more kinetic energy it has!
