Newtons laws of motion Flashcards
(13 cards)
force
A push or pull exerted on an objected in order to change the motion of the object
Motion
A change in position over time
Next force
The combination of all forces acting on an object
speed
distance traveled per rate of time
speed = Distance/ time
velocity
the speed direction of an object
Accelration
the rate at which velocity changes over time
newton first law
an object at the rest of the will remain at the rest and and object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force
newton second law
force = mass x accelration
Newton Third law
for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction
Interia
The tendency of an object to resist being moved or , if the object to resist a change in speed or direction until an outside force acts on the object
friction
a force that resists the motion
mass
the amou nt of matter in an object
gravity
an attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass
