Newtons 3 Laws of Motion

Front

What pulls a ball back to earth?

Back

Gravity

Front

Force exerted between the surfaces of two objects.

Back

Friction

Front

What is the net force if the total forces acting on an object are 10 N to the right and 5 N to the left?

Back

5 N to the right

Front

Newton's third law states that any action will have a(n) ___ and ___ reaction.

Back

Equal and opposite

Front

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

Back

Inertia

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = Mass x Acceleration (F = m x a)

Front

What is inertia?

Back

Inertia is the property of an object to remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and weight?

Back

Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass (Weight = Mass x Gravity).

Front

What happens to an object in motion if no net force acts on it?

Back

It continues to move at a constant velocity.

Front

What is the effect of friction on motion?

Back

Friction opposes the motion of objects, slowing them down or stopping them.
