Identify Newton's Law of Motion

Front

What is Newton's 1st Law of Motion?

Back

The Law of Inertia: 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 Newton's 2nd Law of Motion?

Back

F = ma: The force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object multiplied by its acceleration.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is inertia?

Back

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

Front

How does mass affect inertia?

Back

The greater the mass of an object, the greater its inertia, meaning it will require more force to change its motion.

Front

What is an example of Newton's 1st Law?

Back

A soccer ball remains stationary until a player kicks it.

Front

What is an example of Newton's 2nd Law?

Back

If you push a car and a bicycle with the same force, the bicycle will accelerate more because it has less mass.

Front

What is an example of Newton's 3rd Law?

Back

When you jump off a small boat, you push the boat backward as you move forward.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force (F) = mass (m) × acceleration (a).

Front

What is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force acting on an object and inversely proportional to its mass.
