Sample flash cards in this set:
| Questions | Answers |
|---|---|
| Force | A push or pull that can cause the motion of an object to change. It had two important properties: strength and direction. |
| Balanced Force | When two equal forces act in opposite directions. The results is that the forces are balanced and there is no motion. |
| Motion | The process of moving or changing position. |
| Unbalanced force | When one force is stronger than the other. The result is motion. |
| Strength | The amount of force that is applied to an object |
| Gravity | A force that attracts objects towards the Earth. "What goes up, must come down" |
| Pendulum | A weight on a string that hangs from a single point. It swings and creates a pattern of motion. |
| Pattern | a series of repeating events |
| Patterns of Motion | When a moving object makes the same pattern again and again. |
| Outcome | The result of tests after we make predictions. |
| Friction | The force resisting motion. It slows things down. |
| Inertia | Objects in motion will keep moving at the same velocity and objects at rest will stay at rest unless a force changes their motion. Heavier objects have more inertia. |
| Velocity | An object's speed and direction |
