object traveling at constant velocity means... | constant speed and direction |
an object accelerating means... | change in direction, increasing speed, slowing down |
equation for distance traveled at constant velocity | d=vt |
equation for linear acceleration | a=(Vf-Vi)/t |

where was Isaac newton born (and died) | England |
life span of sir Isaac newton | 1642-1727 |
Who was Sir Isaac Newton | Physicist AND mathematician |
What did Sir Isaac newton discover | discovered fundamental laws about mechanics, motion, light and gravity |
what did sir Isaac newton invent | calculus |
1st law nicknames | seatbelt law and law of inertia |
whats inertia | tendency to resist a change in motion |
mass is... | inertia |
weight is... | force due to gravity |
2nd law nickname | baseball law |
2nd law equation | Fnet=ma |
if the force increases the acceleration... | increases (directly proportional) |
the mass increases the acceleration... | Decreases (inversely proportional) |
by applying constant force on a object, the object will experience... | constant acceleration |
object experiencing balanced forces will be.... | at rest or moving at constant velocity |
object experiencing unbalanced forces will be.... | accelerating |
terminal velocity of an object means... | air resistance and weight are balanced, and it is at constant velocity |
3rd law nickname | rocket law |
what is the 3rd law | every action has an equal and opposite reaction |
whats friction | the force that opposes the motion of an object |
if a system is in equilibrium it means... | it has balanced forces FN=0 A=0 |
