Speed = - correct answers ✅how fast something is going (directions doesnt matter) Velocity = - correct answers ✅how fast and in what direction is something going Acceleration = - correct answers ✅how the velocity is changing
1st Law of motion - correct answers ✅law of inertia (from galileo)
Less massive objects react how? - correct answers ✅quickly- they speed up quckly and slow down quickly Think about two bricks, to accelerate like 1 brick, you have to push them with twice the force T/F - correct answers ✅True, to push two bricks the speed of 1 you need twice the force Law of inertia example - correct answers ✅1.Stomping boots with mud/snow stuck to them.
Force of Gravity - correct answers ✅Gravity (mass 1 x mass 2) / distance^ Law of universal Gravitation - correct answers ✅Gravity is an interaction between any two objects with mass Forces come in pairs T/F? - correct answers ✅True 8 types of energy - correct answers ✅1. Kinetic
2nd Law of Thermodynamics - correct answers ✅heat engine cant be 100% efficient
What is the natural, unforced motion of a moving object in space (like the moon or a planet). That is, what would the moition of the object be if there were no forces on it? - correct answers ✅It would move in a straight line Which of the following is not a fossil fuel? - correct answers ✅Hydrogen Gas What is the energy transformation that took place during Joule's experiment with the water wheel? - correct answers ✅Gravitational --> kinetic --> Thermal What is the metric unit of power? - correct answers ✅Watt What is the kinetic energy of a 18 kg bulldog running at 2 m/s? - correct answers ✅36 J = 1/2 x 18 kg x 2 m/s squared Chemical energy is transformed into gravitational energy when? - correct answers ✅a person walk uphill Under what condition can a force act on an object and yet do not work on that object? - correct answers ✅If the object doesnt move Current Gasoline powered automobiles have an overall efficiency of about 13 %. Which of the law of physics explains the primary
