Lilja Test Review - 5 - Newton's Three Laws

Front

What is defined as a push or a pull?

Back

Force

Front

What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state about the relationship between mass, force, and acceleration?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for calculating force according to Newton's Second Law?

Back

F = ma (Force = mass × acceleration)

Front

What is the principle behind Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Back

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

Front

If Sphere A is raised and released, what will happen to Sphere B?

Back

Sphere B will move in the opposite direction away with the same force.

Front

What is inertia according to Newton's First Law of Motion?

Back

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

Front

What does Newton's First Law of Motion 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 the relationship between mass and force in Newton's Second Law?

Back

As mass increases, the force required to accelerate the object also increases.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object.
