  • Q2
    state of motion
    a description of how an object is moving at one particular moment in time
    30s
  • Q3
    7 states of motion
    starting, stopping, speeding up, slowing down, constant speed, changing direction, at rest
    30s
  • Q4

  • Q5
    gravity
    the pull an object feels due to a mysterious attractive force that matter has

  • Q6
    weight

  • Q11
    force
    a push or a pull on an object that influences its state of motion

  • Q13
    drag
    this type of friction is another name for air resistance which is the backward push that an object feels when moving through air
    30s
  • Q14
    thrust
    the forward push from air or water that an object feels during propulsion
    30s
  • Q15
    normal
