Applying Newton's Laws of Motion

Front

Two astronauts are playing catch in space. What happens when the first astronaut throws the ball?

Back

The ball moves, and so does the astronaut.

Front

A 10 kg mass is dropped from a tall rooftop and accelerates at 9.8 m/s². What is the weight of the dropped object?

Back

98 N

Front

What is Newton's First Law?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, an object in motion stays in motion.

Front

Which force produces a change in motion? Options: unbalanced force, balanced force, gravitational force, frictional force

Back

unbalanced force

Front

What law of motion does this picture represent? Options: Newtons 1st law, Newtons 4th law, Newtons 3rd law, Newtons 2nd law

Back

Newtons 3rd law

Front

Which statement best explains Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Back

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Front

A student throws a ball against a wall. Which statement best explains what is happening?

Back

The force from the wall on the ball is equal and opposite to the force from the ball on the wall.

Front

A 6 kg bowling ball is thrown with 28 N of force. How fast will it accelerate?

Back

4.67 m/s²

Front

Newton's Law of Inertia describes the motion of:
- Objects at rest only
- Objects in motion only
- Objects at rest and objects that are in motion
- Objects without a mass and resist being set into motion

Back

Objects at rest and objects that are in motion

Front

What happens when two objects, such as a baseball and a bat, collide?

Back

They hit each other with the same force in opposite directions.
