frictionthe force that works against the motion of an object
lubricantssubstances that reduce friction
motiona change in an objects position
speedhow fast something is moving
velocitythe speed and directionan object is moving
accelerationthe change in velocity over time
Newton's First Law of MotionAn object that is not being pushed or pulled will stand still. If an object is moving it will keep moving unless a force is applied
