Ask which one is true:

 Competitor A ran to the right then to the left.

Competitor B ran to the left then to the right.

Competitor C ran in a straight line.

Competitor D ran to the right and then ran toward the left.

 

Correct Answer: Competitor D

Term
If a block has equal forces pushing on both sides, what will happen to the block? What type of force is this?
Definition

The block will not move.

This is a balanced force.

Term
If a stronger man is pushing a table on one side and a weaker man is pushing the table to the other, what type of force is this?
Definition
This is an unbalanced force.
Term

In an experiment, there were two standard cars. Car A had an added mass of 20 grams and Car B had an added mass of 60 grams. They were both being pulled with the same force. Which statement is true?

Car A will roll more quickly

Car B will roll more quickly

Definition
Car A will roll more quickly.
Term
Forces can make things move faster, slower, stop, or change directions. If you roll a ball across a carpet, it will slow down as it rolls across the surface and eventually stop rolling. What causes this?
Definition
Friction
Term
Two magnets were placed near each other with opposite poles near each other. How would the force of magnetism affect the motion of these two magnets?
Definition
Magnetism makes opposite poles pull toward each other.
Term
In an experiment to determine if floor surface affects distance a toy will role the scientist used carpet, a rubber mat, and a tile floor. The car was pushed with the same amount of force. It was determined that the toy rolled furthest on the tile floor. What is the dependent variable in this experiment?
Definition
Size of the force pushing the car.
Term
In an experiment to determine if floor surface affects distance a toy will role the scientist used carpet, a rubber mat, and a tile floor. The car was pushed with the same amount of force. It was determined that the toy rolled furthest on the tile floor. What is the control variable in this experiment?
Definition
The toy.
Term
In an experiment to determine if floor surface affects distance a toy will role the scientist used carpet, a rubber mat, and a tile floor. The car was pushed with the same amount of force. It was determined that the toy rolled furthest on the tile floor. What type of force caused this to happen?
Definition
Friction
Term
Where on a magnet has the greatest magnetic strength?
Definition
The poles.
Term
What are example(s) of non-contact forces?
Definition
Gravity and Magnetism
Term
What are example(s) of contact forces?
Definition
Friction
Term
What is something you can use to help reduce friction?
Definition
a lubricant
Term
What three things make up motion?
Definition
Speed, Direction, and Position
Term
Define direction.
Definition
Direction is the path on which something moves.
Term
Define position.
Definition
The place where something is located.
Term
What two things make up speed?
Definition
distance and time
Term

Definition
The forces are unbalances and the box will move west.
Term
Explain what a lubricant does.
Definition
A lubricant reduces the affects of friction.
