    Key Questions:

    1. What is momentum? Pick the most correct answer.
      • Momentum is the tendency for an object to keep moving with the same speed and direction.
    2. How can we change momentum?
      • It takes unbalanced Forces to change the momentum of an object.
    3. Why do we need unbalanced forces?
      • Unbalanced Forces being needed to cause objects to: - stop or start moving, - change their speed, - direction of motion These are all forms of acceleration (qualitative only).
    4. What is acceleration dependent on?
      • The acceleration is in the direction of resultant Force and the speed of the change is dependent on the size of the Force.
