Newtons Laws Of Motion

Front

What are Newton's Laws of Motion?

Back

Three fundamental principles that describe the relationship between the motion of an object and the forces acting on it.

Front

What does Newton's First Law state?

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 inertia?

Back

The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What does Newton's Second Law state?

Back

The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass (F = m × a).

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force (F) = Mass (m) × Acceleration (a).

Front

What does Newton's Third Law state?

Back

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

Front

What is mass?

Back

The amount of matter in an object, usually measured in kilograms.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

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

Front

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

Back

As mass increases, acceleration decreases for a given force.

Front

What is an example of Newton's First Law in everyday life?

Back

A book resting on a table will remain at rest until someone pushes it.
