stays the same

Back

push force

Front

force used to move an object in a direction

Back

the rearranged formula for force used to calculate acceleration

Front

a= F/m

Back

the formula for force

Front

F=m×a

Back

the symbol for acceleration

Front

a

Back

weight force

Front

the force of gravity pulling down on an object

Back

unbalanced force

Front

two or more forces that are not equal and opposite of one another; can cause change in motion and/or direction

Back

the weight of an object ...... depending on the gravitational force acting on it

Front

changes

Back

the size of the arrows drawn on an object show the ..... of the forces acting on the object

Front

size

Back

The arrows used to show the forces acting on an object point ------- the object

Front

away from

Back

the unit for mass

Front

kg for kilogram

Back

the symbol for force

Front

F

Back

symbol for pressure

Front

P

Back

air resistance and drag

Front

examples of friction

Back

the direction and size of the arrows drawn on an object represent the .... forces acting on an object

Front

net

Back

rearranged formula for pressure used to calculate force

Front

F = P × A

Back

formula to calculate the weight of an object

Front

F=m×a where "a" represents gravity so sometimes written as F=m×g

Back

rearranged formula for pressure used to calculate area

Front

A= F/P

Back

Forces make things

Front

move, change speed, change direction, change shape

Back

support force

Front

the force that supports an object against gravity

Back

gravity

Front

the force (in Nkg-¹) that pulls objects towards the centre of the earth at a rate of 10 ms-²

Back

balanced force

Front

forces on an object that combine to give a zero net force and do not change the motion of the object

Back

net force

Front

the overall force acting on an object after all the forces are combined

Back

pressure

Front

how much force is put onto a particular area defined as the amount of force exerted per unit area of a surface

Back

the unit for force

Front

N for Newtons

Back

friction force

Front

force that opposes motion of an object when two surfaces are in contact

Back

the rearranged formula for force used to calculate mass

Front

m=F/a

Back

Force

Front

A push or pull that acts on an object
