Newtons Laws Final

Front

What is Air resistance?

Back

The force that opposes the motion of an object through the air.

Front

What is Newton's 1st Law?

Back

An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an 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 are Newtons used for?

Back

Newtons are used to measure force.

Front

What happens when a ball hits the ground?

Back

The ball exerts a force on the ground, and the ground exerts a force on the ball, causing it to bounce.

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 x Acceleration (F = m*a).

Front

What is gravitational force?

Back

Gravitational force is the attraction between two masses, such as the Earth and an object.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and weight?

Back

Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object, calculated as Weight = Mass x Gravitational Acceleration.
