What is newton's second law of motion simplified?
an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by another force
When an object's distance from another object is changing what is it called?
it depends on the reference points, that is form where the object is viewed...when sun is viewed form earth, it moving...but earth is also moving...when the rotation of the earth is stopped, then the sun is at a constant position...thereforean object position relative to another object is changingonly when the reference point changes..
Change in position of one object compared to the position of another?
The change in position of an object compared to a reference point(another object) is called motion.
How an object can be measure by its change in position from one area to another?
motion
How does force affect the motion of an object?
If you apply force to an object, you accelerate it. If you apply the force in the direction that the object is moving, you speed it up. If you apply it in the opposite direction, you slow it down. If you apply the force in another direction than the object is moving in you will change the direction of the objects motion. The amount of acceleration is given by a = F/m where a is acceleration, F is force and m is the mass of the object.
An object that appears to stay in place that helps you detect motion in another object is a?
reference point
What is an object that appears to stay in place that helps you detect motion in another object?
Reference point
What is an object that appears to stay in place and that helps you detects motion in another object?
Reference point
An object in motion is moving in relation to an object that appears to what?
to an object that stays still
What is newton's second law of motion simplified?
an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by another force
How can they tell how fast the earth is moving through space?
There's no such thing as "motion through space". Motion must be measured relative to another object. So we just measure how fast the other object appears to be moving, and there we go.
When an object's distance from another object is changing is what?
it is motion
When a perceived object position but you still see it as change it is called?
This is called relative motion. Relative to your frame of reference, the object's motion appears unchanged, even though it's motion has actually changed.
Does a change in motion occur only if a net force is exerted on an object?
No. Changes in motion can occur in other ways. A change in motion can occur if that object exerts a net force on another object, like another ball on a billiard table. The object could also bump into an immovable object and its motion would change.
What is a place or object used for comparison to see if another object is in motion?
"reference"
What is a force and motion?
force is a push or pull upon an object interaction with another object motion is a chang of location or position Of an object with respect to time
Why is motion important?
Motion is important because it helps us define if were moving or not. With out motion we couldn't be able to move.An object is in motion if its position changes it relative to another object.
