  • Front
  • Back
weight
the size of gravitational force exerted on an object
efficiency
ratio of output work to the input work
momentum
a measure of how hard it is to stop the object and it depends on the objects mass and velocity
work
a force causes an object to move in the same direction that the force is applied
gravity
a force on earth
force
push or pull
reference point
a place or an object used to determine if something is in motion
outputforce
the force that the machine applies
unbalanced forces
the forces dont cancel eachother out and the velocity changes
motion
a distance from another object is changing
netforce
the combination of all the forces acting on the object
inertia
the tendncy of an object to resist change in its motion
acceleration
change in velocity divided by the time it takes for the change to ocur
balanced forces
if the effects cancel eachother and the cannot change the objects velocity
speed
the distance an object travels in a unit of time
velocity
the speed of the object and te direction of its motion
average speed
the total distance traveled divded by the totalt ime taken
friction
force that acts to resist sliding between two touching surfaces
machine
a device that makes doing work easier
input force
the force that you apply on a machine
mechanical advantage
how much larger the output force is compared to the input force
power
how quickly work is done
law of conservation of momentum
total momentum of a group of objects remains constant unless outside foces act on the group
air resistance
a trype of fluid friction that opposes gravity
terminal velocity
the object will stop accelerating
