Lesson 1 and 2 Science
Q.
A more massive object, which has more inertia, is more difficult to
move from rest, slow down, speed up, or change its ___________.
DIRECTION
Q.
Explains that an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion
will keep moving with constant velocity in a straight line, as long as no
external net or unbalanced force acts on it
LAW OF INERTIA
Q.
If the forces, acting on an object are unbalanced, the object
accelerates. The rate of acceleration depends on the object’s mass and
the net force that produces it.
TRUE
Q.
It states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to
the net force acting on it and is inversely proportional to its mass. The
mathematical expression for this is Fnet = ma.
LAW OF ACCELERATION
Q.
What happens if you are riding a skateboard and hit something?
Your body will keep moving forward and fly off your skateboard since the curb only stops the
board, not yourself.
Q.
Why should we wear seatbelts – use one of Newton’s Laws in your
answer?
We should wear seatbelts so if we are in an accident our body doesn’t keep moving at the same
speed and in the same direction that the car was going.
Q.
Using Newton’s laws explain why heavier objects require more force
than lighter objects to move or accelerate them?
Q.
Mass is a measure of an object's inertia. Objects with greater mass
have a greater inertia; objects with less mass have less inertia.
TRUE
Q.
Q.
Q.
Q.
If one object has twice as much mass as another object, it also has twice as much...
Inertia
Q.
Q.
You push on a car and it does not move. What is true about the inertia?
The inertia of the car is too great
Q.
Because they are both pulling the same amount of force in opposite directions
Q.
After a cannonball is fired into frictionless space, the amount of force needed to keep
it going equals
zero, since no force is requires to keep it moving.
Q.
What is the formula for solving force?
mass x acceleration
Q.
The acceleration due to gravity on Earth
9.8m/s2
Q.
What is the unit for force?
NEWTON (N)
Q.
What is the formula for acceleration with a force included?
force/mass
Q.
Objects that INCREASE in mass (heavier), causes the acceleration to....
DECREASE
Q.
It takes _______ force to move a larger/more massive object.
MORE
Q.
If you have two equally massive objects and want one to speed up,
you will have to apply ________ force to it.
MORE
Q.
If you have a 2 pound ball and a 10 pound ball and throw them with
the SAME force what will happen?
Q.
If you kick a 3 pound ball and a 8 pound ball, which would you have to
apply MORE force to inorder for them to reaach the SAME distance?
8-POUND BALL
Q.
_______ is the amount of matter in an object (location doesn't matter)
MASS
