Acceleration & Momentum (Ch 4)

AB
Newton's second law of motionnet force causes acceleration in the direction of the force
air resistanceforce air exerts on a moving object
terminal velocityhighest velocity that will be reached by a falling object
projectileanything thrown or shot through the air
centripetal accelerationacceleration toward the center of a curved or circular path
centripetal forceforce acting toward the center of a curved or circular path
artificial satellitemanmade devices that orbit Earth
Newton's third law of motionWhen one object exerts a force on a 2nd, it exerts a force that is equal and opposite
momentumproperty of a moving object because of its mass and velocity
law of conservation of momentumtotal momentum of a group of objects does not change
formula for 2nd lawF = m x a
formula for momentump = m x v
