Newton's Laws/Motion

4. force a push or a pull on one object by another object that is touching it.
5. a push or a pull on an object.
6. law of motion law that states that the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object divided by the object’s mass.
10. contact force that resists the sliding motion of two surfaces that are touching.
12. point the starting point you choose to describe the location, or position, of an object.
14. the process of changing position.
16. the combination of all the forces acting on an object.
18. the difference between the initial, or starting, position and the final position.
19. an attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass.

1. a quantity that has both magnitude and direction.
2. an object’s distance and direction from a reference point.
3. a measure of the change in velocity during a period of time.
7. force a force that one object applies to another object without touching it.
8. a region of space that has a physical quantity (such as a force) at every point.
9. the speed and the direction of a moving object.
10. the forces two objects apply to each other.
11. force the force that pushes perpendicular to the object’s surface.
13. law of motion an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion unless a force acts on the object.
15. a measure of the distance an object travels in a given amount of time.
17. the gravitational force exerted on an object.
20. law of motion when an object applies a force on another object, the second object applies a force of the same strength on the first object but the force is in the opposite direction.
