FILL-IN-THE BLANK

Fill in the blank with the term that is described.

zero 1. when net force equals this, objects will cease to accelerate

orbit 2. gravity causes can cause fast objects in space to go into one of these

Universal Gravitation 3. Law that states any two objects in the universe attract each other without exception

vector 4. Force and acceleration are these type of measurements

normal 5. force that usually oppose gravity on earth

gravity 6. dependent upon mass and distance

mechanics 7. study of motion and forces

falling 8. astronauts in orbit are not floating but doing this

acceleration 9. slope of a v/t graph gives this

negative 10. force that is opposite to the direction of motion

spring 11. scale used to measure weight

net 12. sum of all forces acting upon an object

direct 13. relationship between mass and gravity

deceleration 14. if acceleration is opposite in direction to velocity you have this

electromagnetic 15. found in electrical charges and magnets

weight 16. also known as the force due to gravity

unipolar 17. gravity only attracts or is...

Newton (person) 18. came up with Law of Universal Gravitation

ma 19. F equals

force 20. causes acceleration

freefall 21. causes apparent weightlessness

4 22. number of fundamental forces

newton 23. SI unit used for weight

9.8m/s/s 24. acceleration due to gravity

g 25. symbol for acceleration due to gravity (plus vector arrow)

mass 26. same regardless of location

Einstein 27. said gravity was a sheet called space-time

186,000 miles/sec 28. speed of light (c)

location 29. weight constantly changes as this changes (same mass)

free fall 30. object only has gravity acting upon it

strong 31. force that hold the nucleus of the atom together

90% 32. Gravity aboard the space station

inertia 33. a property of mass that varies directly with the magnitude of the mass

black hole 34. escape velocity is greater than speed of light

balance 35. used to measure mass

Kg*m/s/s 36. full unit of force or the Newton

vacuum 37. 2 objects will fall at the same rate in this

West 38. this direction can also be indicated by a negative sign

inverse 39. relationship between distance and gravity
