Front

What is the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion?

Back

Front

Which rock will require the most force to stop: a 10 kg, 15 kg, or 20 kg rock?

Back

20 kg rock

Front

What does F=ma represent?

Back

Newton's 2nd law

Front

What does 'Forces come in pairs' represent?

Back

Newton's 3rd law

Front

What is the Law of Inertia?

Back

Newton's 1st law

Front

What is Newton's 1st law?

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 2nd law?

Back

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 3rd law?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = mass × acceleration (F = ma)

Front

What is the relationship between mass and inertia?

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the greater its inertia.
