Newton's Laws of Motion

Front

What is a PUSH or a PULL of an object?

Back

Force

Front

Which example best explains Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Back

When you sit on a chair, your body exerts a downward force on the surface of the chair, while the chair exerts an equal and upward force on your body.

Front

A tendency to do nothing or remain unchanged is known as what?

Back

Inertia

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 formula to calculate force?

Back

Force = Mass x Acceleration (F = ma).

Front

What is mass?

Back

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

What is friction?

Back

Friction is the force that opposes the motion of an object when it is in contact with another surface.
