1

When two forces act in opposite directions, the object will accelerate in the same direction as the _____ force.

1

A force is described by its _____ and by the direction in which it acts.

1

1

As distance increases, gravitational force _____.

1

When you stand on a bathroom scale, it displays the ____ force that Earth is exerting on you.

1

Friction acts in a direction _____ to the direction of the object's motion.

1

When the irregularities of one surface come into contact with those of another surface, _____ occurs.

1

The applied force required to push something across a surface ____ as friction increases.

1

1

To increase acceleration of an object, you reduce its mass or increase the applied force.

1

Newton's third law of motion states that if one object exerts a force on another object, then the second object exerts a force of equal strength in the same direction

1

Resistance to change in motion is called statis.

1

Action and reaction forces acting in opposite directions do cancel out because they act on different objects.
