Motion and Forces Worksheet

The downward pull on an object
The force of gravity on an object
The elliptical path that the moon follows around earth
A force that resists the motion between two surfaces in contact
The friction due to air
A measure of how much force is acting on a certain area
The unit for pressure
Pressure =
The upward force on objects in a fluid
States that an increase in speed of the motion of a fluid decreases the pressure within the fluid
States that when an outside pressure is applied at any point to a fluid in a container, that pressure is transmitted throughout the fluid with equal strength
The use of force to move an object some distance
The unit to measure work
Work =
Energy in motion
Energy being stored
GPE =
KE=
ME =
The energy possessed by an object due to its motion or position (combining the object potential and kinetic energy)
Energy that is able to be transferred or transformed into another type of energy is called
The rate at which you do work
The unit of measurement for power
Power=
The amount of work a horse can do in a minute
