Question

name: date: force and motion matching directions read the words on the left. then, read the definitions on the right. match the correct vocabulary word to the correct definition by drawing a line. direction is a type of force that keeps objects in place or slows them down position a measurement of how fast an object moves friction a force that tries to pull two objects together gravity where something is located speed to move along a smooth surface while maintaining continuous contact with it roll is the path that something or someone takes to get to another place slide to move or cause to move in a particular direction by turning over and over on an axis spin to turn or cause to turn or whirl around quickly © busy me plus three

Explanation:

• direction: The definition "is the path that something or someone takes to get to another place" matches "direction" as it refers to the path or course.
• position: "where something is located" is the classic definition of "position".
• friction: "is a type of force that keeps objects in place or slows them down" is the correct description for "friction".
• gravity: "a force that tries to pull two objects together" is how gravity is defined.
• speed: "a measurement of how fast an object moves" is the definition of "speed".
• roll: "to move along a smooth surface while maintaining continuous contact with it" fits "roll".
• slide: "to move or cause to move in a particular direction by turning over and over on an axis" is not a correct match. The correct match for "slide" is "to move smoothly along a surface while maintaining contact" (assuming there was a mis - phrased definition). But based on the given definitions, there is no perfect match. However, if we assume the intended match for "slide" is the one about moving along a surface (even with the mis - phrasing in the given definition).
• spin: "to turn or cause to turn or whirl around quickly" is the definition of "spin".

Answer:

• direction: is the path that something or someone takes to get to another place
• position: where something is located
• friction: is a type of force that keeps objects in place or slows them down
• gravity: a force that tries to pull two objects together
• speed: a measurement of how fast an object moves
• roll: to move along a smooth surface while maintaining continuous contact with it
• slide: (assuming the intended surface - contact - based movement definition)
• spin: to turn or cause to turn or whirl around quickly
