Newton's Laws

Front

What is a PUSH or PULL of an object?

Back

Force

Front

It takes more force to accelerate an object with more mass. This best describes which of Newton's Laws?

Back

Newton's second law, the law of acceleration

Front

Which force produces a change in motion?

Back

Unbalanced force

Front

What is the force that opposes motion between two surfaces?

Back

Friction

Front

What is the standard unit force is measured in?

Back

Newtons

Front

What is 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 an unbalanced force.

Front

What does the law of inertia state?

Back

Objects will maintain their state of motion unless acted upon by an external force.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration in Newton's second 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 the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force = Mass x Acceleration (F = m*a)

Front

What is Newton's third law of motion?

Back

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