Motion

Force

Any push or pull that causes an object to move, stop, or change speed, direction, or shape. For example, take baseball physics. When the pitcher throws the baseball at the batter, we notice that the ball is moving at a certain speed at a certain time. Let's say it's going toward the batter at 150 km (92 miles per hour). 

Key - Basic Definition

Motion

Motion is described by an object's direction and speed.

Friction

Friction is a force that opposes motion.

Kinetic Energy

Energy that is being used or simply an object moving.

Potential Energy

Energy at rest.

Force

Any push or pull that causes an object to move, stop, or change speed, direction, or shape.

Physics

The study of  natural phomena and properties of matter and energy.

Zero Net Force

When an object is pushed or pulled in opposite directions by two equal forces, the result or net force will be zero.

Net Force

Net force is the sum of all the forces acting on an object. For example, if two forces are acting upon an object in opposite directions, and one force is greater than the other, the forces can be replaced with a single force that is the difference of the greater and smaller force. That force is the net force.For more info go to en.wikipedia.org[1]  

Balanced/Unbalanced Forces

When equal and opposite forces act upon an object and the resulant or net force is zero, the forces are termed balanced foces.

When unequal forces act upon an object and the resulant  or net force is not equal to zero, the forces are termed unbalanced forces.

Friction

This is what it looks like.
