Newton's Laws of Motion - 12/2

Front

What is Newton's First Law known as?

Back

The Law of Inertia

Front

What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?

Back

Force equals mass times acceleration (F = m * a).

Front

What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Back

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

Front

Who discovered the Laws of Motion?

Back

Isaac Newton.

Front

What happens to the force required to maintain the motion of an object if its mass is tripled, assuming constant acceleration?

Back

The force is tripled.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

F = m * a.

Front

What does inertia refer to?

Back

The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

How does mass affect acceleration according to Newton's Second Law?

Back

As mass increases, acceleration decreases if the force is constant.

Front

What is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?

Back

Force is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration.

Front

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

Back

When you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with equal force.
