Front

What is inertia?

Back

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

Front

Which object has the most inertia?

Back

The object with the greatest mass has the most inertia.

Front

What is the net force (Fnet)?

Back

The net force (Fnet) is the total force acting on an object, taking into account all the individual forces.

Front

How does increasing force affect acceleration?

Back

As more force is applied to an object, the acceleration increases.

Front

What is air resistance?

Back

Air resistance is a force that opposes the motion of an object through the air.

Front

What happens to a skydiver at terminal velocity?

Back

At terminal velocity, the force of air resistance equals the weight of the skydiver, resulting in no further acceleration.

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 Newton's Second Law of Motion?

Back

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

Front

What is Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between mass and inertia?

Back

Inertia is directly related to mass; the greater the mass, the greater the inertia.
