Newtons Laws of Motion

Front

What is the attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass?

Back

Gravity

Front

What is the term for the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion?

Back

Inertia

Front

Which type of force produces a change in motion?

Back

Unbalanced force

Front

What does Newton's 3rd Law of Motion state?

Back

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

Front

What does Newton's second law describe?

Back

The relationship between force, mass, and acceleration (F=ma).

Front

What is the force of gravity acting on an object called?

Back

Weight

Front

If an object has more mass, what can be said about its inertia?

Back

It has more inertia.

Front

What is the formula for calculating weight?

Back

Weight = mass × gravitational acceleration (W = mg).

Front

What is the effect of balanced forces on an object?

Back

They do not change the object's motion.

Front

What is an example of Newton's first law of motion?

Back

An object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
