Newtons Laws

Front

What is Newton's First Law of Motion?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What is the formula for Newton's Second Law of Motion?

Back

F = M x A (Force equals mass times acceleration).

Front

What does inertia refer to in physics?

Back

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's Second Law?

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the more force is required to accelerate it.

Front

How does Newton's Third Law of Motion describe action and reaction?

Back

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Front

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

Back

Newton (N).

Front

If a 20 kg bike accelerates at 10 m/s², what is the force applied?

Back

200 N (calculated using F = M x A).

Front

What is the significance of the term 'net force'?

Back

Net force is the total force acting on an object after all the forces are combined.

Front

How does friction affect motion according to Newton's laws?

Back

Friction opposes motion and can affect the acceleration of an object.

Front

What is an example of Newton's First Law in everyday life?

Back

A book resting on a table will remain at rest until someone pushes it.
