Newtons Laws Of Motion-Ms J

Front

What happens when multiple forces are applied in the same direction with equal magnitude?

Back

The object will not move at all if the forces are balanced.

Front

What is the principle of conservation of momentum?

Back

Momentum is always conserved in a closed system.

Front

What does Newton's third law state?

Back

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

Front

What is the net force when two equal forces are applied in opposite directions?

Back

The net force is 0 N.

Front

What is the force that attracts two objects with mass towards each other?

Back

Gravity.

Front

Define Newton's first law of motion.

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

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

Front

What is the formula for calculating momentum?

Back

Momentum (p) = mass (m) × velocity (v).

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that mass.

Front

What is a balanced force?

Back

Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.
