Would you like to build your own game?

It's easy!

Go to the GameBuilder and get started!

Topics of this game:
  • the force that opposes gravity; supports an object on a surface
  • the tendency for an object to resist changes in motion
  • an object in motion stays in motion; an object at rest stays at rest
  • the acceleration of an object is proportional to the force that acts upon it, and inversely proportional to its mass
  • every action force has an equal and opposite reactionary force
  • the force that opposes motion
  • a quantity that includes only magnitude, but does not show direction
  • a quantity that include direction and magnitude
  • the sum of all forces acted on an object
  • the quantity representation of an object in motion, determined by its mass and velocity
  • the change of momentum in an object
  • a collision where two objects bounce off one another
  • the act of saving the total amount of momentum and/or energy, before and after an event
  • a collision where two objects stick together after the collision
  • energy of motion
  • stored energy
  • the amount of energy used in forcing an object to move over some distance.
  • the mathematic relationship between how an object's motion changes based on work that is done on it.
  • the rate at which energy is used
  • the rate of which an object's position changes over time
  • a condition that stays the same throughout an experiment
  • a proposed explanation/claim to a phenomena
  • the condition in the experiment that the experimenter chooses to change
  • the condition in the experiment that is measured by the experimenter
  • how far an object goes
  • how long an object takes to move or accelerate
  • the rate in which velocity changes in an object
  • a state of movement in which the only force acting on an object is gravity
  • the maximum velocity an object can fall (due to opposing air resistance)
