21
Q

What unit do you use for momentum

22
Q

State Newton’s third law

A

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

23
Q

The ratio of force to mass is

A

Directly Proportional

24
Q

What unit do you use for acceleration

25
Fluid/viscous friction
Occurs when objects move through fluid
26
If you fall from a plane your velocity increases and your acceleration
Decreases
28
----- always opposes motion
Inertia
29
A car is moving at a constant velocity. Are the forces balanced or unbalanced
Balanced
30
Definition of momentum
Bashing power
31
What unit do you use for net force
Newtons
32
Lighter objects have ---- air resistance
More
33
How much acceleration is there at terminal velocity
None
34
The law of conservation of momentum states
The total momentum of any group of objects remains the same unless acted on by outside objects
35
Air resistance -------- as you fall
Increases
36
Increase mass -------- air resistance
Decrease
37
Define Vector
Magnitude and direction
38
What happens to an object when unbalanced forces act on it
It's motion changes
39
State Newtons first law
Objects in rest will stay in rest and objects in motion will stay in motion unless acted on my an unbalanced force
40
Define force
A push or pull described by its strength and direction
41
If friction on a plane was greater than the thrust the plane would --------
Slow down
42
Traveling at constant velocity is using what kind of forces
Balanced
42
At terminal velocity you fall at a -------- speed
Constant
