Newtons Laws Of Motion

Front

What is a PUSH or PULL of an object?

Back

Force

Front

What does Newton's second law state?

Back

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

Front

What is Newton's third law of motion?

Back

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

Front

What does it mean if the forces acting on an object are balanced?

Back

The object is stationary or moving at a constant velocity.

Front

What is friction?

Back

Friction is a force that opposes the motion of an object.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

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

Front

What is mass?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, usually measured in kilograms.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object.

Front

What is the law of universal gravitation?

Back

Every mass attracts every other mass in the universe, and the force of attraction is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.
