Front

Newton's first law of motion is also called the law of _______

Back

Inertia

What is the definition of net force?

Back

The total force acting on an object, taking into account both magnitude and direction.

If an object has a net force of 1N to the right, what can be said about its movement?

Back

The object will accelerate to the right.

Front

What happens to an object if the net force acting on it is 0N?

Back

The object will not accelerate; it will either remain at rest or continue moving at a constant velocity.

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's second law?

Back

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.

What is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI)?

Back

Newton (N)

Front

What does it mean when we say an object is in equilibrium?

Back

The net force acting on the object is zero, resulting in no acceleration.

How does friction affect the motion of an object?

Back

Friction opposes the motion of an object, acting in the opposite direction to the applied force.

Front

What is the difference between static and kinetic friction?

Back

Static friction acts on an object at rest, while kinetic friction acts on an object in motion.
