Question
Answer
Mechanics   show
🗑
show Scalar quantities tell size OR magnitude of the thing measured  
🗑
What does a vector quantity tell us?   show
🗑
show Distance is scalar; displacement is vector  
🗑
Which of these quantities is a vector quantity, Speed or velocity?   show
🗑
What are some other vector quantities?   show
🗑
Define Distance   show
🗑
Define Displacement   show
🗑
Define Speed   show
🗑
show Distance and direction an object moves per unit of time  
🗑
Average speed   show
🗑
show Speed at any given moment in time like on your speedometer in the car  
🗑
Constant speed   show
🗑
Acceleration   show
🗑
Deceleration   show
🗑
Define Force   show
🗑
show When there is no unbalanced force on an object, objects at rest stay at rest and objects moving keep moving at the same speed in the same direction  
🗑
State Newton’s Second Law of Motion   show
🗑
show All objects fall at the same rate if there is little or no air resistance  
🗑
show 9.85 m/s2  
🗑
show Mass is the amount of matter in something and weight is the pull of gravity. Mass is measure on a balance in g or kg and weight is measured on a spring scale in N. Mass cannot change or be zero and weight can.  
🗑
What is momentum?   show
🗑
How do we calculate it?   show
🗑
show F = m* a  
🗑
Be able to calculate using the formula for momentum   show
🗑
show Force times time equals impulse  
🗑
show Impulse is equal to the change in momentum.  
🗑
show When momentum changes quickly, Force can be minimized by extending the time it acts. Air bags, seat belts, and bumpers which crumple all work to allow extra time between the Force and its impact in a collision.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
