Newton's Laws of Motion

Front

What is the formula for force?

Back

F = M * A

Front

According to Newton's second law, if you increase the force applied to an object, what happens?

Back

It accelerates more.

Front

What law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction?

Back

Newton's Third Law of Motion.

Front

What is Newton's First Law known as?

Back

The Law of Inertia.

Front

What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state about heavier objects?

Back

Heavier objects need a larger force to make them move.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's Second Law?

Back

Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass.

Front

What is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI)?

Back

Newton (N).

Front

If an object is at rest, what does Newton's First Law say about its motion?

Back

It will remain at rest unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What happens to the acceleration of an object if the mass is doubled while the force remains constant?

Back

The acceleration is halved.
