Q

If a bee is flying in a circle at constant speed, is the bee accelerating? Justify your answer

A

Yes, when direction is changed velocity changes and when when velocity changes it accelerates

Q

“Objects with more mass has more inertia”
Justify this statement

A

If two balls of different sizes has the same velocity is easier to stop the small than the big ball because of inertia

Q

Momentum formula

A

mass x velocity

17
Q

what is the 2nd law of motion

A

The acceleration of an object is equal to the net force/mass of an object

18
Q

More ____ an object has ,the more force you need to accelerate it

19
Q

more force applied to an object the _______ it will accelerate

20
Q

_____ mass will accelerate more

MORE/LESS

21
Q

More mass will accelerate ____

MORE/LESS

22
Q

When the Net force (NF) is the ______ direction as the velocity the object, it speeds up

SAME/OPPOSITE

A

SAME direction

23
Q

When the NF is in the __________ direction as the velocity ,the object slows down

SAME/OPPOSITE

A

OPPOSITE direction

24
Q

2 types of forces

A

BALANCED and UNBALANCED force

25
Give example for unbalanced force
If you're riding your bike ,and the wind is blowing in the same direction as you r cycling you will speed up and its an unbalanced force
26
Give example for balanced force
If you're riding your bike ,and the wind is blowing in the opposite direction as you r cycling you will slow up and its a balanced force
27
What is the 3rd law of motion
For ever action there is a equal but opposite reaction
28
When you strike the ground with your feet, you exert force on earth and earth exerts equal but opposite force on you propelling you forwards. Why doesn't the Earth move
As the earth is so much more massive than us the same force that causes us to accelerate doesn't affect the earth(but its there)
