Newton's Second Law of Motiona net force acting on an object causes the object to accelerate in the direction of the force.
Force Equationforce equals mass times acceleration
Air Resistancethe force air exerts on a moving object. This force acts in the opposite direction to that of the object's motion.
Terminal Velocitythe highest velocity that will be reached by a falling object.
Projectileanything thrown or shot through the air.
Horizontal Motionmotion parallel to the Earth's surface
Vertical Motionmotion perpendicular to the Earth's Surface
Centripetal Accelerationacceleration toward the center of a curved or circular path.
Artificial Satteliteshuman-made devices that orbit Earth for a specific purpose.
Newton's Third Law of Motionwhen one object exerts a force on a second object, the second one exerts a force on the first that is equal in size and opposite in direction.
Momentuma property a moving object has because of its mass and velocity.
Momentum EquationMomentum equals mass times velocity.
Law of Conservation of MomentumThe total amount of momentum of a group of objects does not change unless outside forces act on the objects.
