,Question 1
force
Correct Answer
- this can change something's speed, direction, or shape
- it can be push/repulsive or pull/attractive
Question 2
vector
Correct Answer
a quantity with magnitude (size) AND direction
Question 3
scalar
Correct Answer
a quantity with magnitude (size) but NOT direction
Question 4
examples of vectors
Correct Answer
force, weight, velocity, acceleration, displacement
Question 5
examples of scalars
Correct Answer
distance, mass, speed, energy, time
Question 6
contact forces
Correct Answer
occur when an object is supported by or strikes another object e.g. friction
Question 7
non-contact forces
Correct Answer
the objects don't physically come into contact, e.g. gravity, magnetic force
Question 8
mass
Correct Answer
the measure of the amount of matter that anything (including people) are made up of (this is a scalar)

, Question 9
weight
Correct Answer
the measure of the force on an object due to gravity (gravity has a direction, towards the centre of the Earth, so
this is a vector)
Question 10
the Earth's gravity
Correct Answer
9.81m/s² (approx.) - it is in m/s² because gravity refers to the acceleration that is put on objects as they are
pulled in
Question 11
weight
Correct Answer
= mass X gravity (can be rearranged) - (also, gravity will always be 9.81 on Earth (above))
Question 12
gravity ideas on the moon and Earth
Correct Answer
- the gravity of the moon is less than on Earth as the moon has less mass than the Earth
- one would weigh less on the moon than on Earth, but still have the same mass
- there is no air resistance on the moon as there is no air, so two objects dropped simultaneously, regardless of
their weight/mass, would hit the ground simultaneously, as there is no force working against gravity
