Weight

Front

A measure of the force of gravity on an object

Back

drag

Front

Resistance of the air (technically a fluid) against the forward movement of an airplane.

Back

fluid friction

Front

friction that occurs as an object moves through a fluid

Back

Gravity

Front

A force of attraction between objects that is due to their masses.

Back

net force

Front

The combination of all forces acting on an object

Back

non-contact force

Front

a force that one object can apply to another object without touching it

Back

contact force

Front

a push or pull on one object by another that is touching it

Back

Momentum

Front

mass x velocity

Back

Newton

Front

SI unit of force

Back

electric force

Front

the attraction or repulsion between electric charges

Back

Spring Force

Front

The force exerted by a compressed or stretched spring upon any object that is attached to it

Back

balanced forces

Front

Equal forces acting on an object in opposite directions

Back

sliding friction

Front

friction that occurs when one solid surface slides over another

Back

Applied Force

Front

a force which is applied to an object by a person or another object

Back

static friction

Front

Friction that acts on objects that are not moving

Back

Inertia

Front

The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion

Back

normal force

Front

the force perpendicular to a surface that prevents an object from falling through the surface

Back

rolling friction

Front

friction that occurs when an object rolls over a surface

Back

unbalanced forces

Front

Forces that produce a nonzero net force, which changes an object's motion

Back

Vector

Front

A quantity that has magnitude and direction

Back

magnetic force

Front

the attraction or repulsion between magnetic poles

Back

tension

Front

pressure

Back

Friction

Front

A force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact

Back

law of conservation of momentum

Front

For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.

Back

Mass

Front

the amount of matter in an object
