| 237490212 | Force | An action exerted on an object that may change the object's state of rest or motion | |
| 237490213 | Inertia | The tendency of an object to resist being moved or, if the object is moving, to resist a change in speed or directon | |
| 237490214 | Net Force | A single force whose external effects on a rigid body are the same as the effects of several actual forces acting on the body | |
| 237490215 | Equilibrium | The state in which the net force on an object is zero | |
| 237490216 | Weight | A measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object; its value can change with the location of the object in the universe | |
| 237490217 | Normal Force | A force the acts on a surface in a direction perpendicular to the surface | |
| 237490218 | Static Friction | The force that resists the initiation of sliding motion between two surfaces that are in contact and at rest | |
| 237490219 | Kinetic Friction | The force that opposes the movement of two surfaces that are in contact and are sliding over each other | |
| 237490220 | Coefficient of Friction | The ratio of the magnitude of the force of friction between two objects in contact to the magnitude of the normal force with which the objects press against each other | |
| 237490221 | Work | The product of the component of a force along the direction of displacement and the magnitude of the displacement | |
| 237490222 | Kinetic Energy | the energy an object is due to the object's motion | |
| 237490223 | Work-kinetic energy theorem | the net work done by all the forces acting on an object is equal to the change in the object's kinetic energy | |
| 237490224 | Potential Energy | The energy associated with an object because of the position, shape, or condition of the object | |
| 237490225 | Gravitational Potential Energy | The potential energy stored in the gravitational fields of interacting bodies | |
| 237490226 | Elastic Potential Energy | The energy available for use when a deformed elastic object returns to its original configuration | |
| 237490227 | Spring Constant | A parameter that is a measure of a spring's resistance to being compressed or stretched | |
| 237490228 | Mechanical Energy | the sum of kinetic energy and all forms of potential energy | |
| 237490229 | Power | A quanity that measures the rate at which work is done or energy is transformed | |
| 237490230 | Newton's Third Law | For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. | |
| 237490231 | Newton's Second Law | Force=Mass x Acceleration | |
| 237490232 | Newton's First Law | An Object at rest will stay at rest; An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by an outside force |
