PhysicsForces and MotionGCSEICAAE Created by: alexbrewerCreated on: 01-09-20 09:39 Acceleration The measure of how quickly the velocity changes in an object 1 of 12 displacement the distance travelled in a particular direction 2 of 12 distance how far something has travelled (regardless of direction) 3 of 12 force a push, pull or twist effect which acted on a object, can cause it to accelerate 4 of 12 magnitude The size of something e.g. A force 5 of 12 mass the amount of material that there is in a object ( mass is also a scalar quantity) 6 of 12 weight The force pulling down on a object, this depending on the mass of the object and the gravitational field strength (weight is a vector) 7 of 12 scalar quantity a quantity that only has magnitude (size) e.g. mass, distance, energy and speed 8 of 12 vector quantity a quantity that has magnitude (size) and direction e.g. force, displacement, momentum and acceleration 9 of 12 momentum the measure of motion (mass x velocity) 10 of 12 velocity the speed of an object in a particular direction 11 of 12 Speed The measure of the time it takes for an object to travel across a certain distance (distance divided by time) 12 of 12
