OSTP Semester 1 Review

Front

What is Newton's 3rd Law of Motion?

Back

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

Front

What does Newton's 1st 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 does Newton's 2nd Law describe?

Back

The relationship between force, mass, and acceleration, expressed as F=ma.

Front

What is the definition of magnetic force?

Back

Attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion.

Front

What is electric force?

Back

Attractive or repulsive interactions between any two charged objects.

Front

How does distance affect electromagnetic force?

Back

The smaller the distance between two electromagnets, the greater the force.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of the electromagnetic force?

Back

It governs the interactions between charged particles and is responsible for electricity and magnetism.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

F = ma (Force equals mass times acceleration).

Front

What happens to the force between two magnets as they get closer?

Back

The force increases as the distance decreases.
