Front

What happens to a baseball thrown in outer space?

Back

It continues in motion with the same speed and direction.

Front

If an object is stationary, the forces acting upon it are _____________.

Back

balanced.

Front

Which one is balanced?

Back

Top.

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 an unbalanced force.

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 × acceleration (F = ma).

Front

What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state?

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 the relationship between mass and weight?

Back

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