What is dynamics?

study of how forces affect motion

In uniform circular motion, the direction of the object's velocity is ___________ and the direction of the object's acceleration is _______________

tangential, radially inward

Stanley is swinging a ball tied to one end of a string over his head. Suddenly, the string breaks and the ball flies away. How does it fly away? (kind of a weird question)

tangentially

The ___ force is a pulling force exerted by connecting medium, such as a rope or cable.

tension

Newton's third law of motion says that, for every action force, there is a reaction force equal in magnitude but that acts in the opposite direction. Apply this law to gravitational forces acting between the Washington Monument and Earth. The monument is attracted to Earth with a force equal to the weight of _____________ , and Earth is attracted to the monument with a force equal to the weight of _____________ . The situation can be represented with two force vectors of _____________ magnitude pointing in __________________

the monument, the monument, equal, opposite directions

A person is following a set of directions. He has to walk 2 km east and then 1 km north. He takes a wrong turn and walks in the opposite direction for the second leg of the trip. The magnitude of his total displacement will be _________ it would have been had he followed directions correctly.
