VOCABULARY UNIT 7
2
Newton: SI unit of measurement for measuring force.
3
Potential Energy: The stored energy of an object relatively due to its position
4
Acceleration: Measure of the change in position and or direction during a period of time.
5
Gravitational Potential Energy:
Energy an object possesses related to it mass and height from the ground
6
Joules: Unit of measurement for energy.
7
Balanced Force: Two equal forces acting opposite directions on an object, there is no movement.
8
Unbalanced Force: Two forces acting on an object that are not equal in size, causing a change in position.
9
Elastic Potential Energy:
Energy stored from an elastic object being stretched or compressed, when force is removed, object snaps back to its original shape.
10
Energy: The ability to do work or to cause change.
11
