Chapter 3 Exam Review

An object with more inertia will be easier to shake back and forth.

What is the name given for an object to resist a change to it's state of motion?

If a ball is rolled down an incline plane, how far will it roll up the opposite incline plane (without friction)?

Volume is measured in what units?

If an object has more mass, it will also have more of the following.

This is a measure of how much gravity pulls on an object.

Without a seatbelt, a person moving at 50mph in a car will continue moving at 50mph after a car crash.

Once an object is moving, no force is needed to keep it moving as long as friction is not present.

This is a measure of how much matter is in an object:

An object with more mass will have more inertia.

In Physics, what is a force?

If an object has a mass of 25kg on earth, how will its mass compare on the moon where gravity is 1/6 that of the earth?

Weight is measured in what units?

Why is it easier to stop a soccer ball compared to a bowling ball?

Which scientist developed laws of motion?

Which scientist used inclined planes to prove his ideas?

If you drop a rock directly at your side while moving at 20 m/s, where will the rock land? (ignore air resistance)

Which scientist categorized motion into two groups called natural motion and violent motion?

Mass is measured in what units?

If an object weighs 250 N on earth, how will its weight compare on the moon where gravity is 1/6 that of earth?

Which scientist is given credit for the idea that the earth moves around the sun like the rest of the planets?

On earth, a 5kg object will weigh how much?

An object with more mass will have less inertia.

Without any outside forces, a moving object will continue to move in a straight line until it hits something.

If an object weighs 350 Newtons on earth, how much mass does it contain?
