I- Unit 1 Lesson 3

All forces have both a - and a -

size, direction

A force can cause an object to change its - or -

speed, direction

A change in an object's motion occurs because of a -

force

Force is expressed in -

Newtons (N)

Forces exist only when there is an object for them to - on

act

A force exerted during contact between objects is a - force

contact

Give an example of a contact force

Friction

T/F: Forces cannot act at a distance

F (can)

Give an example of a force that acts at a distance

Magnetic force

To determine net force when forces act in the same direction, you - the forces.

add

To determine net force when forces act in opposite directions, you subtract the - force from the - force and use the direction of the larer force.

smaller, larger

- forces will not cause a change in motion of a moving object or cause a nonmoving object to start moving

Balanced

- forces produce a change in the object's motion

Unbalanced

Unblanced forces can produce a change in an object's -, - or both.

speed, direction

Acceleration is always in the direction of the - force.
