Ch. 3 Forces

AB
Newton's 2nd Law of MotionForce = mass X acceleration
Frictionthe force that opposes the sliding motion between two touching objects
Static frictionfrictional force that prevents 2 surfaces from sliding past one another
Sliding frictionfrictional force that opposes motion of 2 surfaces sliding past one another
Air resistanceforce that opposes the motion of objects that move through the air
Gravityattractive force between 2 objects that depends on the masses of the objects and the distance between them
Centripetal accelerationacceleration of an object toward the center of a curved or circular path
Centripetal forcea net force that is directed toward the center of a curved or circular path
Newton's 3rd Law of Motionfor every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
Weightgravitational force exerted on an object
MomentumThe property of a moving object that equal mass X velocity
